    Tuning with race gas

    I tuned with the 110oct today and here is what I found out. I hit fuel cut at 24 psi. I backed it off to 23.5 psi and didn't have any issues. Most of what I read told me to tune for 12.2-12.5 afr. I made an executive decision and set a goal for 12.3 afr while monitoring egts. My max egt is...

    Am I missing a relay?

    A/C doesn't kick on. Blower fan doesn't kick on. Already replaced: fan resistor, blower motor, a/c controls. Something missing here behind the passenger side panel? (to the right of the green relay) Thanks, Dennis

    440HP Supra video shoot

    Thanks guys. I tried to keep the music as mild as I could. My camera is great at photos, decent for videos and terrible for sound. I could have kept the video sound if you wanna hear tons of wind noise. I kept as much as I could. I'll try again with a different camera. The headlights are...

    Speedometer Calibration?!?!?!

    I just had the same problem. I was -10mph constantly. I must have hit the needle when I was installing another guage. The needle is adjustable, just turn it. Dennis

    odd compression test q&a

    ah i see. So for sure too late for this block? I did have this block "cleaned" by the machine shop. I can't be more detailed than that. I then put about 3000 miles on it with the bolts. Then I switched to studs and put on 500 more miles with the studs. I need a list of stuff to do when I...

    odd compression test q&a

    I pulled the head. This job used to take a few days for me. I got it done by myself in 3 hours and 33 minutes. I was too exhausted to thoroughly inspect everything but I think I see something. What do these cracks look like? THis is the only thing I see so far. I will do more inspecting and...
