83turbo, Jesus did not come to this world to establish a religion. In fact being a Christian is not supposed to be a religon but a relationship. Christ came to help us establish a relationship with GOD. The Jew's during the time of Christ were very religous. They had created all kinds of laws...

Why does bad things happen to good people? Why did God flood the world? The answer is that he gave us the freedom of choice. God will not force himself on us. He will not do things that make us have to believe in him. He wants us to search him out. The man who was sick for over two decades...

If the shaft is not in bad shape they can be rebuilt for about 10 bucks. The sleeve bearings can be found at a company named Oilite. They are 1" long with a 0.5" inner diameter. I forgot what the outside diameter of the sleeve bearing is. You will need a tool with a lip to drive the new bearings...

I have been trying to find a ticking sound in my valve train for quit some time. I have read every thread on this board. I measured everything in the valve-train and nothing seemed to be out of spec. I even change out the cam, lifters,rocker, rocker shafts and pushrods. The ticking was always...

Sorry to hear about you being laid off. The company I work for just laid off a couple thousand people yesterday. This is over several states. I am not at liberty to speak for the company but you will probably see it on the news today. Our layoff is only supposed to be for a few weeks and then...

Bruce, The 9/11 converter you sent is great. You got that thing matched perfect!!! The car pulls much harder even with less boost and the efficiency on the big end could not be better. It was worth the wait!!!! Thanks

It is just like Pinks. Just a flagger and a spotter at the end. No time slips. You race down Pit Row. A good number of people show up. I work just down the street in Griffin. I would like to run my car in their stock class,,,regular street tires, but due to the larger turbo I do not know if they...

Nice!

Cam/valve train related, Rocker, push rod. I also would have to agree that it is probably on the exhaust side.

These cooler temps reminded me of something that happened about a year ago that I thought that I would share. One morning I got up early to test a turbo that I had installed the night before. There is this place I like to go that has a long flat surface with no place for cars to enter the...

I keep mine in a "Big Mouth" cloth tool bag from Sears. No rust, although they are never cleaned.

If the car is left in drive and not shifted into od would that work? I too have a STAGE2. With about the same situation almost 2 years old and a little street driving. Very few miles.

If you have the funds I would just replace the drivers side with an after market one. A couple of the venders have stock replacements that work good. The drivers side has always has problems cracking. I've never had a problem with the passengers side header.

For most of us this is a hobby. I have fun win or lose. I have seen four new Z06's in the the town I live in,,,, one of them is blue. While I was pumping gas the blue one was on the other side of the pump. A man comes out of the store talking about how he really liked that shade of blue and how...

I would like to post one correction. The 300hp@115mph was supposed to be about 300hp@~155mph. I was just playing with what the top end would be of a GN. With the program I had to make some assumptions the biggest was traction. My point is that on paper it is possible. With the Vette one of...
