    What is an used engine worth?

    I have an extra engine that I could sell. It is from my 96 GTS. Why? - It is the original engine with the car, and it got low compression in one cylinder (80psi or so, other 9 normal compression) so I replaced it with a built motor. The motor was still running upon disassembly, it was NOT...

    Fuel line popped off - advice on repair

    My fuel line separated at the connection two feet before the tee into the fuel rails. This happened when I went key on, and didn't crank the car because I heard fuel dripping on the ground. When I pulled on the rear fuel line it wasn't attached at all! :omg: Any idea why this would happen...

    Rebuilding/upgrading engine - feedback on buildsheet please

    I am rebuilding my engine because one cylinder was low on compression (80 psi vs 160 psi on other 9). The machine shop did not find a smoking gun to cause this loss of compression, possible causes are lack of ring tension and out of round cylinder wall (small amount) (both of these were noticed...

    Thanks Dan! - Solving tire concerns for 20/20s on GTS

    I've been trying to decide which tires to purchase for 20s front & back on a GTS and ran into problems between: 1 having enough tire to protect the wheel 2 not having too much and rubbing or making the car have a 4x4 lift look. I came across Dan posting answers for others in their...

    Best tires for GTS running 20s all around?

    I have a set of 20s coming in for my GTS. I'm a bit confused about the best tire to run. I learned that a 19/20 setup makes this easier with a 275/30R19 & 335(or345)/25R20 to keep the overall diameters the same, but this is not the case. What is the best setup for 20s all around on a GTS...

    How do I open a 96 GTS PCM?

    The #7 injector driver got burnt out on my PCM. I want to open it and see if there is anything visible I can fix (broken solder joint, blown up piece of the circuit...). I took out the 7 screws on the box and it's still like a solid piece of metal! :dunno:

    Sourcing replacement PCM - 96 GTS

    I've been having intermittent problems on my 96 GTS and they got worse. The signal for injector 7 dropped off. It's been traced back to the PCM. Already replaced battery, plugs, O2 sensors and coils. What the best source to get a replacement? I called O'Reilly's and they will call the...

    Cool Daytona Coupe - Grandfather to GTS

    The 1st time I saw this car was in a Goodyear advertisement. I loved its lines and thought it was similar to the GTS from the windshield back. I was floored to learn its history in this article: Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe - 250 gto - Jalopnik :usa::usa::usa:

    Tuning into audible knock, timing and more!

    Background: I am tuning the fuel/ignition timing on my Roe GTS. The previous owner was at higher altitude and only had 91 octane available. The timing was way retarded and the AFRs were pig rich high 10s, low 11s. Now I'm leaning it out to 11.8-12.2 as recommended by Sean Roe and advancing...

    Appraise these Vipers - higher mileage

    What do you think the following 2 Vipers are worth? They are higher mileage. I understand the cars are fine at these mileages IF they are maintained. I may take an international assignment in the coming future so resale value is a top priority for me. How does the high mileage affect...
