what tensioner are the 8-rib guys running on their 4.6? This is for a vortech car.

Question: using the adjustment screw in the top...screwing it in more, what does that do? Screwing it out (more threads showing) what does that do? Jake

IAT sensor for a s/c 98 Question: what IAT sensor are people using with the older Cobras and forced induction? I'm sure I've heard people say lightening ones? Do they plug into the factory harness? Curious as I'm replumbing a lot of my s/c stuff. I have a draw through MAF, my IAT is...

I have an aeromotive fuel system (A1000, with all the lines, filters, aeromotive regulator) on my 98. My tank is sumped. I moved to Vegas from Florida and have only noticed this problem in Vegas in the heat. When it's hot outside and the car gets fully heated up, my fuel pump gets...

What's the best place to buy tires online? I looking for a set of Mickey Thompson ET Drags, 26x10/15. I've checked both summit and jegs = $190 each. Also looking for some Mickey Thompson drag tubes. Both places want roughly $64 per tube. Thanks, Jake

So, I have a mildly built motor: 4.75 MMR stroker @ 9.5:1, comp stage III cams, P&P B-heads, accufab TB, stock 98 intake. I have a V1 S-trim with a 3.0 pully and a 5.4 crank pully. At 6900 rpm I see 15 psi but that's because the motor breaths so well. On a stock motor I'm sure I'd be seeing...

What's the lowest psi I can run these at before I cause more harm than good at the track. they are 275/75-15, and I spin through the 330 mark. I used to cut 1.5s with slicks.

I'm running a set of MT DR, 275/15s. I cannot get these tires to stick at all. My car is a 5-spd, I used to run 26x10 slicks and cut 1.5 60s all day long. Best 60 I can cut with the MT DRs is a 2.0. It doesn;t matter if I leave easy or soft, I spin through the 330 mark. What PSI...

So, I've been in the game for about 10 yrs with the same car and have been to a couple of different tuners as my set-up changed. I moved and now have a new tuner. When he was tuning my motor, he tuned it with pump gas all the way out. My a/f is a safe 11.5ish, when we started spraying the...

I got a vibration that comes up through the shifter and makes a noticible amount of noise when present. I don't have the vibration in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd when spinning high RPMs. only in 4th from 90ish to 125ish. My d/s angle is good (-10 degrees), all motor and tranny mounts are good (polly...

*Updated with pics*04 Cobra Block Question So I'm putting my new motor in my car today, car is a 98 Cobra with an new 04 Cobra block. On the passenger side of the motor under the 1st freeze plug there's an open hole with threads. the diameter is approx 3/4 in to 1 inch, what screws in...

So I'm putting the finishing touches on my new longblock and am ready to put on my IMRC delete plates. The lower gasket is a flimsey rubber gasket, the top of the head and bottom of the IMRC are smooth, not prefabed groves for the gasket to sit in unlike the upper composite gasket. Do I...
