    2.76" pulley bolt or no bolt?

    I just noticed there is no bolt in the middle of my blower pulley, is this normal? It is threaded as if it accepts one... I had to heat it to get it on so I understand its TIGHT but does it require a bolt to guarantee it will stay on? I searched and searched and searched, it seems every day...

    Fluidyne Radiator fit with intercooler tanks?

    Will the Fluidyne radiator upgrade fit when one of the aftermarket aluminum intercooler reservoirs tanks have been added in the stock reservoir location? Will slight modification (grinding) allow these two to fit together? Anyone have a good place to buy the Fluidyne radiators? I have...

    Tire size = tech failure?

    My buddy and I are debating how a different ratio may or may not affect his cars performance and/or computer codes. He drives a Volkswagon (don't hold that against him) :pepper: His all season tires are 195/65/15 and he wanted to mount 205/65/15 snow tires. What if any difficulties will...

    Removing AC

    Ok I never ever use my Air Conditioning and doubt I will ever miss it... Can the consensor be removed easily? Is there going to be a mess left over or can I just unbolt and remove? (No i haven't even looked). Also aside from weight savings I assume this will help by slightly increasing...

    Stock Cobra Exhaust fit V6?

    Hey all, tried the search to no avail so hopefully you can help. A friend of mine wants to try to fit my stock catback onto his V6 giving it the dual exhaust look and perhaps sound without spending 600+ on a system. Does he have any hope? Anything we should know to fit this system? Any...

    Missing 4th at the 1/4 track

    Yeah sounds impossible doesn't it but its almost as if 4th was blocked for a number of my runs. The first couple runs of the day no problems, after all 3-4 should be and is the easiest shift to make imho... but after a couple passes I just couldn't get the car to go into 4th, once it even...

    03 Cobra on Horsepower TV

    For those of you that saw this special do you agree with my opinion of the show..... DISAPPOINTING. Heck, 90% of us on this board have done more to our Cobras then these guys did. I guess I was expecting a full show on our cars but maybe thats just because I'm in love with my car more then...

    Wider rear wheels

    Open tracking... does it make any sense to have wider wheels in the back? I am ordering 17x10.5 wheels and wrapping them in 315 gs-d3's purely for looks, ok and I know launching may be a slight bit better. My concern though I have an open track event coming up and was wondering if I am...

    17in Front 18in rear wheels

    The corvette's came or do come stock with 17inch wheels up front and 18 inch wheels in the back. Would someone be so kind as to explain why they do this? Is it purely aesthetics or is there any performance benefit? Thanks.

    Large rear tires in the twisties

    Running a setup like 275 front 315 back, what does this do to the handling characteristics of the car?... Ideally a fatter tire is good for launching but what about the twisties? Sprited street driving I'm sure is fine but ideal for auto x or open track applications? Thanks.

    17in fr 18in rear wheels

    I believe the Zo6 comes from the factory with 17 wheels on the front and 18 inch wheels in the back? Why is it that they do this and can i do the same? I am replacing my rear wheels with 10.5in wide rims and 315 GS-D3's and want to avoid the use of wheel spacers. One way I have heard of...

    Acceptable tread depth

    Needless to say my stock eagle F1's are getting quite bald... I am getting the AFS 10.5 wheels for the back and was wondering how much tread depth should I have left so I can still run the stock tires up front for a few more miles. I of course don't want to compromise on handling or stopping...

    Skip Shifting... Fuel Economy/Engine Longevity

    I know our cars definately have the low end power to handle a skip shift from 1-3 or even 1-4 but it begs the question ... why? Is this approach to shifting going to save us any gas? Reduce stress on the engine? Or what? What are the upsides and downsides to skip shifting? The reason I...
