He has paved parking for over 150 cars and a large level grass area for hundreds more. The area is loaded with hotels, car washes, restaurants...

    wheel-hop-----what to do?

    Anton The link supplied by Hoosier shows good instructions for shock adjustment. You will need access to a spring compressor to remove the shock from the center of the spring for adjustment. Make sure you set the shock at its stiffest position. This cured almost all of my wheel hop after trying...

    wheel-hop-----what to do?

    I had to deal with this last year. My car wheel hopped so bad I was embarrased to do a burn out. To make a long story short I tried a lot of different things and the only thing that made an improvement was when I removed the rear shocks, disassembled them & adjusted to the stiffest setting...

    Header clearance?

    How close is the dent to the flange that bolts up to the head? If you took the header off would you be able to access the dent thru the opening at the flange? It certainly can't be doing any good with one pipe closed off 50%. I once fixed a large dent in a header pipe by welding a round ball to...

    Just replaced the clutch and slave now it is hard to put into gear.

    reconditioning hood "speaker grills"

    Re: reconditioning hood Took mine off & painted them also. They did't come from the factory in gloss black. It looked like a cross between flat & gloss. I bought black trim paint from Auto Zone. It was a perfect match. Put a couple of light coats on. Holes didn't plug up & it looks...

    Porting stock SRT throttlebody

    I ported mine on my 97 GTS. It had a lot of restriction in it. If you take your intake tube off, hold your throttle wide open, and run your finger down the bore of your throttle body you will feel the restrictions. Don't do this with the engine running ! Sorry but I had to put that in there...

    Who's got the Gen 1 in Aruba?!

    Re: Who\'s got the Gen 1 in Aruba?! I agree with the ban on Aruba travel because I don't think they are handling the Holloway case properly. In fact I suspect some kind of cover up is going on. However, I own a time share there so I go back every year for vacation. If I was looking for a new...
