    Engine pricing

    Hey guys, I'm looking at starting a project, and will be looking for a full 03/04 Cobra long block(w/ S/C if available). What should I expect to pay for one? I've checked car-part.com and found one with 0 miles for $4500 or $4800(can't remember). Then again, I'm sure it's got more than 0 miles...

    reckless driving = misdemeanor

    Well I was just informed today, that a reckless driving ticket goes on your record as a misdemeanor? I got this ticket over 3 years ago. I was just hired into a new company, with a start date of April 15th. They call me today, telling me they did a background check, and found this out. They...

    Help me choose!(Digicam)

    So I've had my Sony Mavica camera for almost 6 years now, and I'm looking to upgrade. I don't need anything crazy, but I'd like something that takes some quality high res pictures. Another concern, is the size of the camera. My Sony is HUGE. So I've been looking around on fatwallet.com...

    Speedometer issues??

    So a buddy of mine is looking into a 91 Mustang GT Convertible. It's lightly modded, and with 3:73's. He said that as soon as you would take off, or start to accelerate, the speedo would jump to 60-80mph and just constantly jump back and forth betweent 60 and 80. This is a 5 speed transmission...

    Weed wacker help!

    I bought a Stihl FS-45 weed wacker about 2 years ago. It's always worked great. This winter, unlike last, I forgot to put the fuel stabilizer in. I don't know if that's the problem, but I can't get the thing to start. My cheap-o leaf blower had ZERO gas, but I filled it up and it started...

    Window tint

    I'm looking for honest answers to this. No, I'm not trying to fight a ticket. I just received my 2nd window tint ticket last Saturday, and will once again pay it. My question is this. Do you know if you can get a Doctor's prescription for window tint? The reason I ask is, my eyes seem to be...

    SVT v. WRX

    So I've been feeling shitty lately, battling a sore throat and losing my voice. I'm over at a buddy's house on Saturday night, along with another one of our friends when I decide I want to go down the street for a McFlurry, to sooth this sore throat I have. So we hop on Jefferson BLVD, a 30mph...

    flushing while leaking???

    This is more for the guys in here. I've often wondered why guys will flush the urinal, while in mid stream. Is this to avoid the splash back from hitting the water, or to avoid that acidic urine smell? I just gave the work urinal a golden shower, and another employee in the building gave the...

    1 for 2 lastnight

    Coming home lastnight at around 10:30, I'm minding my business on I-69, when this blowoff valve is burning a hole in my ear! The guy's behind me, trying to get me to pass traffic and get into an open stretch. At this point I have no clue what it is, but am willing to oblige. I confidently...

    My Dyno Graph

    Not sure how often you guys visit CEG, or look at the Timeslip forum up top, so I thought I'd post this here to. Hopped on the dyno to see what sort of #'s I could muster out of my 3L with an SCT Xcal2 tune. The motor still has some room left in it, and I plan to get back on the dyno once I...

    CSVT dyno SCT Xcal2 tune

    Just put the car on the dyno on Friday to see what sort of gains I received from my Xcalibrator 2 tune. Before this, my previous best was 196whp & 191wtq. I've since added a 65mm T/B and 3" ID intake pipe. Looks like I netted 10whp from the T/B, pipe and tune, but there's more left in it, as...

    Inched an 01+ GT

    Was out cruising the other night with a lady friend. In my rearview I see the lights of a 99+ Mustang GT(no passengers). As he passes me, I notice that it is an 01+ by the hood scoop(unless he put one onto his 99/00.) He has a Bassani decal on his rear side window, so I'm left to assume he's...

    93.5 Supra vs. 600cc 6R??

    A buddy of mine calls me up Saturday, tells me he's taking the Supra out and for me to meet up with him. We go to the usual hangout and meet up with some more friends. Not a whole lot going on, when a Silver 94 Supra drives by. So we decide to play a little cat & mouse to see if we can't...

    C meets Z

    So Im out with a buddy cruising around, enjoying the crisp cool air. Not expecting to get into any trouble, we come along a familiar set of taillights. My eyes can't help but to look under that right side tail, hoping to see Z28. It was an LT1 Camaro with an aftermarket dual exhaust. We...

    SVTC vs. Regal GSE

    So 2 weekends ago everyone is out on a cruise, doing the usual line-up racing. On the way back from this cruise, I figure I'll do a couple small kickdowns with this Regal GSE with mods to see where I stand. Now these were only 35-60mph kicks and we were dead even. So this weekend, we decide...

    CSVT vs M3

    So a few weeks ago Im cruising around in my 00 CSVT with 2 buddies. Minding my own business, a 94-95 BMW M3 comes strolling up after I pull a U-turn. He's doing about 15 in 1st gear, so I know he wants to go. I figure, what the hell, let's try it. Now he pulls about a car up to 90, so I take...
