Made 1 good run, died out and backfired on 2nd, had to be towed on 3rd and then wouldn't start. Coded a 41 - cam sensor system malfunction. So, what do ya figure, bad cam sensor ?

Looking at getting a 6776 BB turbo, and I can get the compressor in 3"/2", or 4"/2½". I have a stretched stock location IC w a 2½" inlet, so I'd like that compressor outlet size. However, I would then need a 4" inlet hose or pipe, and I would need to have reducers to neck down for the MAF (F...

Jay Carter may be willing to make SS headers for our TTA's. Here is his E-Mail to me : "Hi Lynn We could make a set if you wanted. Depending on what collectors we used, the price would be anywhere from $1400-$1700 out of stainless. I might can do a little better, just depends on what...

I F'ed up the last Rear Main seal I did ~ 10 yrs ago by not rotating it around a little off of the cap-block surface, so I'm doing it again. Have any of you guys found any one brand of Neoprene seal to be better than the others ? Also I seem to remember in the distant past that Kenny...

My old car covers are falling apart from weather. Anyone know where to get a high quality one for a good price ? May get one for my TA also.

Hey I know alot of U guys don't have to worry about this for now, but w the new administration, I understand that they may make all of the states as rigid as CA on Smog testing. And our cars, along w the GN, have been identified as "Gross polluters", so Big Brother is watching us. I keep...

Hey guys, My old cover disappeared, and I need a new one. Some of my old covers weathered badly and fell apart. Anybody know where I can get a top quality one for the best price ?

Just noticed that TCI advertises a 6X 6 Spd Auto that is supposedly good for 850 + HP in April Car Craft on p.53, Does anybody know what trans case this is based on - 200, 700 or 400 ?

I have had a 5 disc Vigilante TC for ~ 3 years now. It has a 3000-3500 RPM stall. The engine is built to ~ 500 HP, and the 200 is beefed. It has always "bucked" @ ~ 2100-2400 RPM. The guys who put it in claim that that is normal, and that it is locking and unlocking in this range. It's a real...

What happened to page 2, 3 etc. of the TTA list ? It doesn't show up anymore ?

When I open that el cheapo plastic petcock on our radiators, nothing comes out - assuming of course that it is opening. I got another plastic petcock @ AP store. But the damned stock thing in there doesn't screw out. So how are we supposed to pull that sucker out to put a new one in ? Kinda...

I'm getting some weird squeaking/squealing that seems to be related to stepping on the accelerator pedal. Any of U guys ever have that ?

Just dynoed the GN and we had to back off before we pushed it all the way because of some smoke on the Pass side. Got 440 RWHP @ 5100 & 533 Torque @ 4000. Had ~ 21 # and the Cat was still on. We had the hood open, and it was kinda scary how the inlet pipe to the TB was swelling and twisting...

I switched to the taller "B" spindles a long time ago and I also put in taller lower BJ's. Now my Pass tire hits the outer fender when the car bounces. I understand that U can get a compression type tool that will let U push on the lip of the fender to push it out. Anybody ever heard of that...

I replaced my leaking rope seal ~ 10 yrs ago w the neoprene one, but at the time I didn't know about offsetting the seal, so it leaks also. A bit of a pain to do, since the pan won't drop and ya gotta loosen the mounts and jack up the engine. The oils loss is trivial - say 1 Qt./1000+ mi...

For awhile I thought the 200's were different when we looked @ Frank the Beermans' car because of the electronic speedo vs the mechanical in the GN. But now looking again, I think that we have a different insert into the speedo area which takes our electronic module. Sound right ?

I just noticed in Car Craft that Flex-A Lite now offers a Radiator & Dual fan for the Gen III - a little pricey @ $900. Is our radiator the same as the GTAs' ?

The traction on my TTA has always sucked. When I used to race in the past -hardly any tracks left in SoCal - I would typically spin for at least 50 yards. I put on the Spohn traction bar and lowered the rear lower arms and have an adjustable panhard. Still not very good - maybe I need new...

Hey I see 2 new twin turbo kits available for GN's and wondered if they would fit the TTA. Eventual aim - stroked TA Al block build w twin turbo. Just another F'ing power glutton.

It's been a while since I flushed the radiator, and the last time I put in petcocks on the block - both sides. I seem to remember a problem with that stupid little black plastic petcock on the lower passenger side of the radiator. I just tried to open it - CCW - and nothing would come out...
