    I broke my Roe, dammit...

    I had heard that the 10# pulley spins the blower faster than it should, so I talked to Sean before I stepped up from 8 to 10#'s. Many have and are continuing to run 10# with tens of thousands of miles with zero issues. I think there are some running 12# pulleys also. Jason, I would have it...

    Engine Misfire - troubleshooting help

    I took my MSD's off because I had misfires, replaced with factory wires and the issue was solved. I have AB's wires on my new car, and would not think of using anything but AB's moving forward.

    How can the pads on an ebrake wear out????? They are only functioning when the rotor is stationary.

    E-brake adjustment??

    I will figure something out if there is no other adjustment, I am good like that :). It bugs me that its not working, but I will figure out a way and let you know Redsnake!! martyb

    E-brake adjustment??

    My 01 GTS has Dave's big brake kit, along with his e-brake kit. The e-brake has really not worked in the few months that I have owned the car. I looked at it today, and adjusted the outside pad to the proper clearance(.010), but noticed that the pad on the inside of the rotor is way off, like...

    will a 97 cam work in my 94?

    The overlap in the 96-99 was 6 degrees more than the creampuff cam also. That, along with the lifters, killed our lopey, musclecar idle:mad:.

    will a 97 cam work in my 94?

    I think the 708 will work fine in the Gen 1 Mitch. I thought about making that change with my old Roe car, but then I decided the 708 was too small. Ended up with a custom grind, I think just over .600 and 232/236 duration, 114 centerline I believe. I miss the lumpiness of my old car, the...

    Turbo Wax Results-Pics

    I spent the day in the garage with Turbo Wax Oxidation block, swirl remover, prewax, and finally Turbo Wax with Poly. I have been a Pinnacle fan for years, but I have to say the quality of Turbo Wax products did not let me down, amazing results. This was all done by hand, and yes I am beyond...

    Creampuff-No cam lope

    I forgot to mention that I have T&D's also!! The idle speed is right where it should be. I have a fidanza flywheel, which in theory should make it a little lopier because of the reduced mass in the flywheel. Its smooth as butter though.

    Creampuff-No cam lope

    I know the overlap on the creampuff cam is different than the forged engines, as are the lifters, but I have heard a few creampuff cars that sounded much lopier(if thats a word) than my 01 GTS. Am I imagining things??? My car has factory exhaust manifolds, no cats, bellanger cat back. Its...

    Dyno Video and Numbers

    Jason, Do you have water/meth? I would think you have more HP in the car if so. With water/meth, you should be close to 660-670rwhp. Sounds great by the way. Tell that guy with the red Gen 1 Roe he needs to hit the dyno also! Anxious to see what it does. martyb
