Re: How to install stock arm coil overs the 550,600,and 750lb/in are "off the shelf", and for a few extra bucks you can get anything inbetween "custom". in my oppinion a 650or 700 would be good for a small block, but its hard to guess..... might take some experimenting to get it just right. e

Re: How to install stock arm coil overs GP is coming.... but we want to try something first. we are gonna try the poly bushings in it now, to see if the shock angle is close enough to straight to line up perpendicular to the mounting bolts. "if" the poly bushings will work, they would be the...

Re: Turbotime Rear Coilover Preload you need to start by putting just enough preload for the spring to fit tight with the suspension at full droop. start there and increase it as needed to get the ride your looking for. you probably wont adjust it much from there if at all. e

Re: How to install stock arm coil overs you should have enough washers in there so that the shock fits tight...... it shouldnt move at all. e

Re: How to install stock arm coil overs tighten them on the truck.... dont bother taking them off.......you have the thrust washers.... you should have no issues. see if you can adjust the amount of spacer washers at one end or the other to give you some additional clearance as well. the other...

Re: Underdrive pulley consensus simple question, and here is a simple answer. if you greatly change the RPM range of the motor, and are willing to idle at 900rpm then by all means go with the underdrive pulleys. they will perfectly complement your motor. i usually use a crank pully only, with...

Re: E85 price ballance? feeling the gas crunch i did some poking around, and im thinking the alky is condensing when sprayed into the cold air, and causing issues..... not sure what im gonna do to resolve this issue...... i wonder what the effect would be of not running an intercooler at all...

Re: E85 price ballance? feeling the gas crunch yeah thats where im having issues.... <50 deg outside temps make the overall drivability a little sluggish. its not extreemly noticable, so i didnt even pick up on it at first, but as the tune got smoother and smoother i started to notice it more...

Re: E85 price ballance? feeling the gas crunch the reason you cant find this fuel everywhere is because of the oil industry. a lot of the chain stores selling gas are owned/partially owned by the oil companies with only the convenient store owned by the locals, or in some cases even that is...

the price of gas here in NC is now $315 a gallon (premium). its so expensive to drive the syclone at that rate. im not sure if its like this all over the US, but the cost of E85 here doesnt seem to follow the price of gas now that gas has become so expensive. when the price of gas shot way up...
