    Need some help with transmission and pinion angle

    Hey fellas, I've searched a bit on here and found posts about pinion angle, but couldn't find an answer to my question. I have solid motor mounts on my SS, which appear to have raised the front of the engine maybe 3/8"-1/2" at most. Lowered my car 2" all the way around. UMI double adjustable...

    Temp gauge issues after high output alternator install

    High amp alternator

    Do any of you guys know where I could get a higher output alternator? Between my dual electric fans (which pull 20 amps each, 35-40 each at turn on), and my stereo (which is 1500 watts rms), the alternator I have can't keep up. The alternator I have is a STINGER 150 Amp, so I'm looking for...

    Rhoads lifter noise

    So I bought a 1988 Chevy K1500 with a 5 speed and a blown up engine. I have a .040 over 400 SBC with a RPM Airgap intake, headers, roller rockers, and a set of the old G2 Trickflow Twisted Wedge heads bolted to it. I'm gonna leave the engine carbed with the Edelbrock 750 it has now and stuff her...

    Dual electric fan conversion

    Just finished removing old shroud and clutch fan, even though engine never ever got hot, kinda setting things up for when the Procharger goes on. Had a Griffin aluminum rad with dual 1 1/4" tubes and a clutch fan with a trimmed stock shroud and it worked awesome. Bought a Griffin dual core...
