    Drag Radials

    With all the work I am having done and the 4.10's out back I am going to need more traction. I am going to look into Drag Radials. What brands does everybody here use? I've seen Nitto DR's advertised for $160 a piece. Are they worth it or are there better brands or better buys out there? :burnout:

    Boring?

    If i have done my homework correctly, the stock bore on a 4.6 is 3.552 - 3.582 correct? And from what I have heard the most you can safely bore out a stock block is .030. If this is true, that would put the bore at 3.582 - 3.612, if I understand correctly. If this is all true, then how do you et...

    The previous owner of my '99 swapped out the IRS for a solid rear axle. Some friends of his told me that he ripped the rear-end out racing it a few times. They told me it was because they didn't change the mounting locations for the suspension and when he launched it put the axle in a bad...

    Has anyone used or know someone who has used the Kenne Bell Boost-A-Pump or Boost-A-Spark? They sound good and come from a reputable company, but I just wasn't sure. http://www.kennebell.net/accessories/accessories-home.htm

    Rearend Popcorn

    I purchased my '99 in the fall of '01 from a used car dealership. Of course, after about a week, I ran into some friends of the previous owner who told me how abused the car was. I have since replaced the transmission and am now rebuilding the engine. But along with these problems is another one...

    Has anyone used or know someone who has used a 5.1L stroker kit or assembled shortblock from Coast High Performance or any other distributor? I am kicking around the idea of getting one for my engine rebuild and was curious. :shrug:
