Made the switch from tvs blower to a kb 2.8 with 3.0 pulley on it. The tvs last dynoed aroun 615-620rwhp with 2.6 pulley. Made the switch kb stage 3 with 3.0 pulley and 72lb injectors. Made 678rwhp and 630rwtq at 6100rpms on 91 octane with conservative 17 degrees timing. Pretty pleased...
Drove home from dyno and started to get loud belt squeal. So I am hoping there are other options instead of getting one from kb. Maybe a green belt one? Anyone know part number for belt for kb with 3.0 pulley and stock lower? Thanks!
I purchased a used 2.8 kb not to long ago. It was a 2.8 super snake with 3.5 pulley, I swapped pullies and put a 3.0 on it. I still used the belt that was used with the 3.5 pulley. Right now when I actually look at boost gauge it showing 14lbs, so thinking I got some belt slip. Wondering if...
I got friend looking for set of rear tires for his super snake wheels, he really wants to use drag radials. I pretty sure I remember reading about the 305's not working on these. Can someone enlighten me on this, thx!
Got around to installing my lethal off road x-pipe. The pipe went on smoothly, I thought it was gonna rub against my bmr driveshaft loop but it cleared it when it all got tightened down. I also removed my slp loudmouths and installed my stock mufflers back on since I knew it would be stupid...
I am looking into getting a wideband but can't decide on what I really want. I really don't want any pillar guages so that is out. Just really looking to get the wideband to do some datalogging and make sure the a/f ratio is good. I am stuck choosing between the fast single wideband kit and...
UPS man showed up today with my radiator cover/with extensions and also my strut bar that was painted to match from Jay at JLT. The paint looks great on the pieces and matched perfectly. The install was straightforward and very simple, I love the way it looks now, really added to the engine...

Received all my rims today, went with the sp500's 18x9.5 fronts and 18x11 in the rears. Very pleased with the rims and the look, finally don't have to look at those stock ones anymore. :banana:
Well, just like any susp stuff I do I am never completely satisfied. I installed the ford springs only awhile back ago which I was pretty satisfied with, the rode great. Then I replaced the upper and lower control arm with j&m units to fix the dreaded wheel hop. I always thought the rear end...
I finally had time at work to install my ford racing springs. Installation went smooth, very easy, took around 30 minutes for all 4. I measured before and after, fronts drop 3/4 inch, rear dropped 1 1/4 inch. Note, this was me pulling vehicle in my stall, measuring, installing springs and...
