    Ft lbs of torque

    I'm no saying this was the correct way of doing the pull, I just was asking that at about 220 hp, according to the printout shown after the pull, does the lb ft of torque sound close to being right, 519? All I was doing was to get an Idea of what the car had in it at this time with the little...

    Power master brake failure

    Was reading in the info guide by Peter Hoffman copy right 2005 pg 48. Keeping the brake fluid absolutely clean won't allow the sludge to form and clog the valve. He states to actually change the fluid every 6 months to keep it absolutely clean. I thought that was bit excessive. I called and...

    Ft lbs of torque

    I have an RA 93 chip, EX fuel pump, volt booster. Had a free chance at a dyno pull. I didn't have a tach so the operator went by ear the best he could. He hit 220 hp and said I was pushing 519 lb ft of torque. Does that sound right? Seems like a lot of torque for just a chip and pump change!

    Fuel Pump Access Panel

    Was a welder for 40 yrs and did a lot of cutting (wizzers) and grinders. If your going to use one of these in the confined trunk are get a large mouth funnel, attach a strong shop vac to the spout end with duct or any tape and place the opening where the metal is flying to. Bring the spout in as...

    Fuel Pump Access Panel

    Get a large mouth funnel and duct tape it into your shop vac hose. Place in front of the flying steel filings. Makes clean-up a whole lot easier.

    Fuel question

    Turbo tweak chip is better then the ra93? Is there any special setting up from a computer or anything and the volt boost stays the same? Does the eng have to be tuned to run right or are these drop in and go parts?

    I just saw your sill full of seals! Did you teach ring toss at the shore? Just kidding! your seals look like the packing that goes into a hydraulic cylinder barrel then crush with a gland nut. The rope seals that I put in years ago were actually 2 pieces of rope impregnated with something. No...
