    Switch ARP Bolts to Studs

    Yeah that is really the answer I am looking for... if there is not a right way to do it without pulling the head then, yes I will for sure just leave it... I have done my best so far not to take any short cuts and I do not plan to start now... With so few miles on a fresh build, I see no real...

    Switch ARP Bolts to Studs

    Thank you for the reply - I guess I am not thinking this would be the case if they were chased, plus all the parts went through a chemical bath at the machine shop and I have only put 7k miles on it since rebuild last spring/summer... correct me if I am wrong, just not seeing where the crap...

    Switch ARP Bolts to Studs

    Yeah I know another thread on this subject... but I promise it is a different question :icon_bigg So when motor was done, ARP studs were ordered, but bolts were delivered... at the time, schedule was somewhat important because of another shop project that needed to come through... so I went...

    Im I being an ass&^$*? Sean Palmquist

    This is a tough one... I own my own business and can speak from both sides to a point... Like SAsupra said, if you are a service based business, scheduling is always fluid, now in saying that, it is also the responsibility of the business owner to communicate well with his/her customers if they...

    Curiousty on going with a lexus AFM

    To the best of my knowledge, the 3rd one is not needed for what would appear to be your overall HP plans (the lexus AFM/550 upgrade) I have done the same fuel system mod, looks like the same setup I bought from DM, but like you said, only the AFPR and the two lines, not the 3rd. I have also...

    Exhaust Muffler Opinion

    Lol, it wasn't so much offense, as it was the wrong time to read the board... something else had me a little po'd earlier today... But I figured since I had said "I am not familiar with that line" and he had said "Never heard of HPF? Wow... new to the car world?" Figured he was talking to me...

    Exhaust Muffler Opinion

    Not sure if you are referring to OP or my thread, but I did not say I had never heard of them... said I am not familiar with that line of mufflers... meaning I have never run one, so could not voice an opinion about them (not as a vendor, but as to the mufflers) I am not personally a fan of the...

    Exhaust Muffler Opinion

    I am not familiar with that line, but what I do know is that I had a similar universal straight-through style, did not really like it, both in looks and sounds, I just put in a SS MagnaFlow 3" in with dual 2.5" out, then just added short finished tips to the outlets, I have only idled so far...

    NW Section so lame on SM

    FYI - The closed restaurant lot that we met at last year, is now open for business, so will probably need to find another location... It is about a mile off the interstate, but I think the Yard Birds lot on the West side would work well, usually always empty since most of the businesses in that...

    portland were you at??

    Well I will throw myself in here... as I am in the middle (SEA - PDX)... but I get to Portland to see customers on fairly often... but also go north to Seattle... Hope you can keep yours off the road this week... as much as I prefer driving my Supra, I have been using the cavalier or the...
