Been out of the game for a few years and looking to get back, in the form of a fox body. Located in Athens, TN I'm willing travel a few hours. I'd like to stay at 12k. Let me know what you've got.
I know it's not an F-150, but I just purchased an '83 Bronco. 351w/C6 transmission (computer completely removed). I've almost got her in to a daily driver condition (PO was not kind to her). I'm having the transmission rebuilt and now looking at a replacement for the 351w that's in there now. My...
We traded one of our cars in about a year ago. We signed the papers on our new truck and everything was great. About a month later, we get a call saying that our car payment was late and would I like to take care of the payment over the phone. After explaining to the nice lady that we no longer...
My employer is requiring everyone to submit a VAF. We're told that if we do not comply with this, termination is their answer.
Now, I realize that I can request to have the file destroyed, but it is also my understanding that this is supposed to be on a voluntary basis. Can they legally do...
This isn't a for sale ad. I just wanted to get some ideas of what you guys thought I could get for my car. Mods are (I think this is all of them):
MGW Shifter
Fidanza Aluminum Flywheel
Spec Stage 3 clutch
New bushings in rear (all)
Diff Brace
Pinion Brace
Tokico D-Spec shocks and struts...
Halloween is just around the corner and this year I've got a haunted maze going on. I purchased a 1000 watt fog machine and now I'm trying to decide on the best design to chill the fog so that it hugs the ground instead of flying everywhere.
Have any of you guys built one? I've looked at...
I'm approved for X amount, but after buying the land and having the home built I'll have X left over from the original loan amount. I would like to use the left over equity to pay off the car and some other debts so that the only thing I have left is my house payment. Is this an option or will...
Just got everything cleaned up today (except I missed a few bugs in the air filter :nonono:)
It's filled with a Walbro 255lph pump, fitted with a fuel pressure regulator and topped off with 1 gallon of C-16.
I have a barely used (rubber tits still on them) set of Mickey Thompson Sportsman fronts size 26x7.50-15 and a set of Hoosier Drag slicks size 28x10-16 that are brand new. I was going to get a set of Bogarts to put them on and some things fell through, so I now have no use for the tires...
Going by their sizing chart I bought this helmet in XL. After I got it and wore it to the track once, I realized it was just too big.
The helmet is basically brand new (been worn for one run down an 1/8th mile track). Included is the helmet bag that came with it and a clear shield. Asking...
Here is my plan. Let me know if you think it will work or if I should go in a different direction.
Here's the project: Weld an 1/8" piece of plate steel to the tongue of my trailer to mount a winch for pulling my car on if/when it breaks at the track.
The details: Cut the plate to shape...
I'm ordering some Bogarts and I'm torn on what tire to get for the rear. The 28x11.50 has a smaller tread width and MT no longer makes the 28x12.50 16.
Should I look at 26" tall tires? Will that give me enough sidewall? I'd like to get some DOT slicks, but if I need to go to regular slicks...
I'm in the market for a trailer to get the car back and forth to the track and the Rod Run in Pigeon Forge a few times a year.
So, what are your experiences with these types of trailers. I know the open trailer gives me more visibility, but the enclosed trailer will protect the car better...
I'm getting a set of Bogarts this week (15x3.5 and 16x10 Bolted R/T's) and I'm very torn on what tire to get for the rear. The car is mainly a toy and sees cruise ins, car shows and the track.
My question on the ET Streets is are they OK to drive say....10-15 miles to the local shows without...
I recently purchased a Sig 226 (40 S&W). I'm wondering, what do you guys use? I was issued a Bianchi AccuMold at work and the thing has held up great over the past 8 years and doesn't seem to have affected the finish of my sidearm at work (also a 226 but in 9mm). I'm not going to carry my...
Instead of installing multiple gauges that will read the same things as our factory cluster (oil pressure, water temp etc.) is there any way to install Autometer/aftermarket gauges in the existing cluster? I like the idea of having a numerical value to go along with what the needle is pointing...
I finally got my car to the shop. I thought it was the input shaft in the tranny. Turns out it was a broken passenger halfshaft. I guess sound travels quite a bit, because it sounded exactly like the noise was coming from the transmission.
They haven't cracked open the rear end yet to see if...
I went to the track Saturday to try my hand at the foot brake class.
The first run of the day during time trials something gave.
I left the line fine. Everything felt great. As soon as I hit second the car free revved. I thought I had just missed a gear because there weren't any other bangs...
Does anyone know when the Dynolicious app. will be available for the Storm? It's kinda scary at how accurate the little $13 application for the iPhone is. My tuner used it and it was within a few hundredths of what he ran at the track (ran the application while he was going down the track). I've...
