Check out the May 2005 Popular Hot Rodding. It has a very in depth article on exhaust science. I've read it three times and still haven't got it...
Just got done putting the right converter back in the car (who says Datsuns are hard to work on?) ;) and went for a ride. Trans shifts perfectly, now...
Couldn't sleep just had to pull the tranny out, and what do you know Bruce was right. Pulled out the converter and checked what spline it was by...
Should be a piece of cake (relatively speaking, conversions are never that easy), front steer-no crossover clearance issues, tons of room in every...
1. I don't know of any adapters to take the metric fittings and adapt them directly to the quick disconnects on the car. 2.I don't think the...
Hooked up the new pressure gauge and got some healthy pressure readings, looks like you might be right Bruce. Out comes the tranny, lets see if a...
Thanks for the response Bruce. Just found out my trans pressure gauge took a big dump (ran a test on 4l60e that still shifted and it read 10 psi:eek:...
You need to install a check valve in the vacuum line to the modulator, modulators don't like boost. Also make sure you make a small vacuum leak...
In all the trannies I build and in my own personal cars I just use regular 99 cents a quart Dexron and change it often. If I know I got the trans hot...
Before you go adjusting anything make sure the steering box is centered, (steering wheel turns the same amount from center, i.e. turns 2 revolutions...
Have you checked the adjustment of the TV cable? Sounds like the trans is shifting way to early. The trans has to be in at least third gear before...
Draining the trans pan doesn't have to be a mess. You'll need a big drain funnel (available at most good parts stores, it's aprox. a 24" square...
I think with your combination you would want the converter to stall to 3,000-3,200 RPM and flash to 3,500-3,600 range. This converter will act...
You should be able to reuse the original bolts on your new converter. They usually torque somewhere around 25 ft lbs. Most 1/2 inch torque wrenches...
I went to the local metal mart and bought a piece of 1/4 " plate that was about 16 inches square. Drilled 2 holes in the center of the plate, drilled...
Are you gasket matching the heads as well? If not than it's not even worth the time or effort. If you are doing the heads just use a stock intake...
Home depot sells a single pole thermostat for 120v that you could wire into an extenstion cord that'll do just what you need. Seems like they are...
Just think how much fun it would be to catapult all the local rice off the end.:D :D
NCGREG231 I can see some of your confusion comes from thinking that because God is omnipotent (sp?) that we can't have freewill (predestiny...
Sounds like you have a classic case of Dex-cool. I've had pretty good luck with back flushing the heater core with a garden hose, just unhook the...
