    Polyurethane vs Rubber motor mount height

    Dave, you need to go back and read your basic geometry text book. The difference in vertical height is the hypotenuse of the triangle therefore it is the greatest length(i.e. longer than the two components of said triangle). :bonker: As GR8 ASP stated, the centerline does not move; therefore...

    Water in my oil

    Hey Phil, the drain plug is under the middle cylinder. In your pic you can see part of the boss it goes in. Here are a couple photos......use Teflon paste when replacing them (a dab L do yah:D )

    Water in my oil

    Oops, I meant to write "below the heads". :crazy2: The plugs are located near the center of the left and right sides of the block, directly below the heads. I'm not sure what size the plugs are, but if you take a 3/8 inch drive extension and carefully grind the end of it to fit, it will work...

    Water in my oil

    Bolt, that oil looks like it still has a bunch of water in it…kind of looks like chocolate milk in the photo which indicates water. You may want to flush it again. You may be getting residual water in the oil if you did not remove the drain plugs in the block below the heads. I did a rebuild...

    No Front Plate in a Front Plate Required State

    Just a suggestion for those of you that live in a state that requires a front plate…Start a petition and get other car clubs involved. Contact your law makers and let them know what a cost savings it would be to the tax payers and how it will help the environment by producing half the number of...

    Color change on my engine

    Those looke great Phil! When I had mine done, I had them apply clear coat powder and that really made them look great. It looks like you did the same. When you get your engine back and install your DLM setup get black hoses for the top three connections and that should look badass!!! One...

    Engine Mount Install Guide...

    Ok, rather than hacking the heat sheild, I flipped the mount so the tabs face toward the front. However, this causes the mount to sit lower when assembled. Anyone see a potential problem with this setup???:dunno:

    Engine Mount Install Guide...

    Here's a photo of the drivers side mount (tabs facing toward the rear).... Before I installed the mounts, I cut a 1/2 inch off the threads; covered them with tape, cleaned the mounts, and painted them with black primer to avoid the rusting that occurs on the stock ones. Here's the...

    Sorry, It's ONLY a GTS...

    I drove my Viper to work a while back and one of my co-workers; a self proclaimed car guy, asked me if it has the 6 or the 8!!!!!:omg: I replied no it has a 488 c.i. V-10. He got really quite after that!:lmao:

    Engine Mount Install Guide...

    Another great writeup Tony!!! I however, used the spacer since the directions said it is needed to pre-load the mount (it has two bumps the protrude out the bottom). Also, I thought that since the bottom of the transmission is not flat, but has two ridges, those ridges may split the mount...

    Empty

    Once when I was 17 I went outside to go to a friends house but my truck wouldn't start. I'm thinking what are the odds that it would run out of gas right when I shut it off the night before.:dunno: So I'm pulling plugs, checking spark etc. Then my mom came out and said "maybe it's out of gas"...

    Engine Mount Install Guide...

    Great write up! :2tu: I just replaced my motor mounts yesterday with the PB's. One thing I did differently was to cut about 1/2" off the motor mount studs. They don't need to be that long, and that's 1/2" less you need to raise your motor. This helps when you have headers, a wideband and DLM tubing.

    Should an 05' SRT be getting 10 mpg?

    I'd start with the simple stuff: air filter, spark plugs, plug wires (AB makes some awsome ones). If those seem the be in order, maybe you should release your e-brake?:D

    Replacing Lower Ball Joint

    You don't need to replace the control arms, the ball joints are available separately (see Janni's post). I belive the top ones screw in and the bottom ones are press fit. Here is a link to some....... http://www.snakeoylproducts.com/product.php?productid=17827&cat=340&page=1 I THINK they...

    Rear brake line problem

    I don't believe the washers are meant to be reused. Replace the washer and you should be fine. Most auto part stores carry them.

    Funny "Cop" Stories...

    A few years ago coming home on my CBR, I was at a stoplight about a mile from my house. So I decided it would be fun to bang through the gears for the rest of the ride home when the light turned green. One problem though, there was a cop behind me at the light that I didn't see.:omg: After the 1...

    Poor Man's Pressure Bleeder

    I acutally put a quart of brake fluid in the sprayer; thus the leaking, but no need to refill. Next time I'll use Ruckdr's method, that is definitely cleaner if you don't have a good seal. As an alternative to the sprayer, you could hook it up to an air compressor, just be sure to use very...
