    Car keeps popping the pass side headlight fuse, low beam (HID conversion)

    Car keeps popping the pass side headlight fuse, low beam (HID conversion) I have had HIDs on the car for over a year, no problems other than an odd intermittent loose connection on the pass side. I'd turn on the lights and have to get out, smack the headlight housing, and the headlight would...

    Heffner Stage 3 Twin Turbo Pics

    How much noise does the iab valve make? Mine was soooo anoying. Ended up routing it to the charge pipe and eliminating that filter. When your iab valves fails soon, you might consider that modification. it should see equal boost pressure across it for endurance. Fyi How much boost you got...

    DIY Roe Dual Walbro Pump Installation For Gen II's

    I have three pumps in my tank and i wired each up to separate switches. One to the ignition key and the other two to individual switches so I can tell if one goes bad. You can hear them but watching the fuel pressure, they each will blip the fuel pressure up a bit when you switch them on. just...

    Engine Rebuild in Chicago

    Speed inc will likely farm the work out to Rich Groh. He built a couple of my 1000hp ford engines in the past. He has built some viper engines as well. He is one of the top builders in the mustang/ ford arena. Many of the top guys in NMRA and FUN ford run his engines. If you can pull you...

    For Those Who Have Not Seen a Carbon Fiber Drive Shaft

    I think the figure is each 1 lb of rotational mass reduction is equal to 8 lbs of stationary mass. so 32 lbs off the rotors= 250 lbs of weight loss-- certainly a seat of the pants difference. 2-3 tenths off in the 1/4 mile.

    Thank you again for the info! I have carbotech 10's and 8's on my big brake kit with motul 660 brake fluid. The car stops very very well and I never had the ABS kick in.

    So... as a beginner in a viper, (gen 2) on the road course-- do you suggest full soft on the shocks, and loosen up the sway bars? ( my stuff is all aftermarket and adjustable) Allow more roll or yaw and get the feel , then tighten things up as you feel confident? I took mine out last week- first...

    Re: BLACK Sparkplugs... fouling... Supercharger build startup help. 50psi fuel at idl I dont agree with the point that boost referenced regulators cant see vac. there are literally 10s of thousands of them doing so in the mustang world alone and they run just fine. I am running mine on my...
