    Leaking header gakset - What gasket is the best?

    I'm on to round three of my header installation. I've got some OBX headers that I installed with the gaskets that came with the headers. Driver's side leaked within a few weeks. I went back in and put a new Felpro exhaust gasket on the driver's side, and it too leaked within a few weeks...

    Electric Fans (e fans) - Increase in Mileage?

    I'm considering putting on an electric fan. I'd love to see an increase in mileage, even 1-1.5 mpg would be helpful, as I'm currently getting around 7.5 to 8mpg towing. Question -has anyone here documented, carefully I might add, a real MPG improvement from installing electric fans? And, what...

    Need Tune to Eliminate Cats - Predator base, any recommendations?

    I've installed long tube headers with no cats and need to be able to eliminate the CEL. Anyone have a recommendation for a good tuner who can do tunes via a Predator? I don't have the SCT that JDM requires and am not interesting in buying a new tool. Thanks, Ron

    Wanted - Lightning OEM Muffler

    Just the muffler only, nothing else. I can send a UPS shipping label. I am tired of this Mac drone at 2000 RPM when towing, it is deafening. Since I saw no power increase on the dyno with the cat back I'll just go back stock (except I'll keep the 4" tips, I like those). Ron

    Build a Lightning Engine - What Block?

    I'm wanting to build up a long block for my Lightning. What year core 5.4L motor should I select and are there any major differences in years that I should avoid? I'm figuring I would like to just get a 5.4L Triton motor from a vehicle, get it down to a Long block state, and once built swap...
