Ya, sorry. I read that wrong. Common sense not working so hot tonight. lol That extra rpm would be useful. I'm too used to shifting early to make up for a useless CT26.

LOL! I'm months away from this thing running. Need to wire up the MAFT-Pro, fit IC pipes, finish my custom fan shroud, put in the walbro, wire/plumb 4 new gauges, and a shit ton more on that list. This is not a simple swap for me. I've changed a lot of things and it will take a while before it...

More like 3 hours. lol Steve showed up around 11 and we quit before he had class at 2. It was just a touch below freezing and holding onto cold tools was shitty. A few days from now it will be like +6 and I want to spend more time out there then.

So before with the 3.73 you trapped at the top of fourth and were considering shifting to fifth? With the 4.30 and the same size tire this means a shift to fifth is necessary. I would find out what size tire you need to run to stay in fourth Either with the 4.30 or the 3.73. With the stock rear...

It's a pretty deep dent but it will be fixed in time. Just more motivation to get new paint everywhere. Today: Progress! My buddy Steve (Tireshredder) came by to give me a hand. We got the engine/tranny dropped in the car and bolted up. Filled the diff with oil and 2 ounces of friction...

Running 87 in a modded turbo car has never made sense to me. Wait till you have a long pull up a moderately steep grade at part throttle. It's just one more avenue for failure and I don't want to be worried about it.

Interesting. I hadn't intended to block off my EGR ever as I find it to be a good thing but when I bought the new setup that wasn't really an option. I will look more into it and will consider changing it. Will need to do that tomorrow as I intend for the engine to go in on Thursday. A few...

Hey Ron. I finally found this thread. If I were you, I would just paint the entire cam cover black and then sand the tops of the ridges with various grits of paper and a block. If you go high enough it will look almost polished. EDIT: Just read your last post and you did just that. Reading...

Doesn't seem like it would be too hard to make. I think it would be great for you because you have the hitch already and therefore wouldn't need to have a hook on the rear at all times.

That really sucks. I would not autocross in a place where there are curbs like that. If they exist, the track should be made in such a way that you are never near them at speed. Time for all new suspension pieces at the least. Probably a lot of bent body structure as well. That's really too bad...

Congrats. Your Jack Russel will be much happier with a friend. My family also added a new dog. 2 year old Siberian Husky named Toulack.
