    Power bleed brakes

    I've had reasonable luck with speed bleeders and an HF vacuum bleed kit. I think having someone pump the brakes manually would have been lots faster. Note - if you still have the ABS, you'll want to find someone with a Tech1 to run the ABS module through a bleed cycle. They get full of air on...

    Tire and wheel size for quickest 1/8 mile times.

    I had my quickest 60s on 15" Weld Alumastars with Hoosier stickies all around. Saved close to 20# per wheel/tire, if I remember right. Ripped off some low 1.50s with the stock unopened block and a 20g. Can't run 15s with bigger brakes, however.

    Upper Intake & Intercooler Color

    I want to say the intercooler was a powder coat of some kind, as was the upper intake. I've used alumablast myself on different things (brackets, etc), and it turned out well. Eastwood offers a 2k version of alumablast now in a rattle can, much tougher and fuel resistant.- Suit...

    Emissions Decal

    Is anybody still selling the emissions and belt-routing decals? I see some on ebay, but they look kinda questionable quality-wise. Will be painting the rad support soon and would like to have decals in hand before I attack it.

    Anybody got the spec on these? Been through both the S10 manual and the Sy supplement, but I can't find a spec... I got 'em at 55 now.

    Stock turbo

    Not sure you can even get a 14cm2 housing anymore if you tried, I've been looking for them for while? You could spool the 14cm2 housing up if you had the chip set up right or were using a custom boost controller. That said, it would certainly be a lot easier with a 12cm2 or 10cm2. Also, if...

    OG rollcall

    Still 'around', whatever that means. I also shun social media, as there is just too much life outside of it. Anybody still on that was on the old mailing list, way back when? Extra points if you were on when I manually forwarded messages to everybody... :)

    20G Turbo Info Please

    Re: 20G Turbo Info Please Mine ran 11.84 with an otherwise stock motor. It would also spool enough to be able to spin the tires hard through the 60-ft mark. And beat the crap out of the drivetrain. Of course, I had it tuned to do this. I also didn't do this with a bone stock converter. And...
