    Custom 350 Small block...

    cams are pretty cheap, if you're willing to do a head swap doing the cam at the same time is not very much more work. you'll already have everything stripped down it's worth it to cam it.

    flex fan vs plastic flex fan vs electric

    On my car I'm running a fat aluminum rad and two electric fans, one in front of the rad and one behind. I'm no wiring genious, but we wired them up witht he kit to come on at a predetermined temp and a manual override so you can switch them on anytime. The problem isn't overheating, it's...

    86 cutlass salon build

    Long tube headers aren't that bad to put in. You'll probably need to jack the car up high and feed it up from the bottom, and will probably have clearace issues with the control arm. you can either dent the header or grind a bit of the control arm.

    Is This the Black Horse of Revelation?

    Wether you believe in Christ or not you must admit that they're not the worst morals to live by. And the church is run by people, people aren't perfect. In theory communism works until you realize half the people out there are lazy bastards. Don't blame religiong, blame religous people.

    Battery relocation with Safety cutoff switch

    If you have the battery cut off with only two large posts, try to return it. you need to have one with two large and two small posts and wire your alternator to it. right now (I'm assuming), your alternator has enough juice above 3000 rpm to keep your car powered. I've helped with a few kill...

    Lightening the load

    If you are painting the whole engine compartment you can do whatever you want, but most factory engine compartments are not very glossy, I used matte on mine and I've seen semi gloss. Glossy with a clear coat might stand out alot though.

    Young Guns Show your Cars ( Thread)

    The rims are 18x8.5 front and back, can't remember the backspacing off hand but I'm running a small wheel spacer on the back. The front tires are 245 40 18 and the backs are 275 35 18. Personally I want to have a bit more sidewall on the back when these burn off. They're Kuhmo tires and have...

    My new project.

    The trunk relocation isn't very hard and cleans things up front quite a bit. Would you consider using the openings on your front bumper and relocating your blinkers? I don't know what the legalities of this are, if you need lenses or can just have a marking light, but it would be cool if you...
