So, tell me what that RCM thing is.The one gizmo (window accelerator) I saw that just "plugged in", was basically an enhanced ground via some...
Well, I am going with the two relay setup per door and bringing a solid 12V into the door from a breaker protected battery tap. The reason for...
I never noticed the wheel to be in the way. I do know its easier for me to get in and out of my car with the top off. I rarely install the top as...
None of that stuff was on my '79 US car. The dual dizzies had only a single breaker point each (and to my recollection, there was no place to...
I would suggest the last guy that painted it read some article about "skim coating", in order to get a real straight car. Unfortunately, he...
FWIW, the Corvette C1/C2/C3 group is very decent, nice and helpful. And older, except for the C3 group which is a 20 something to 60 something...
Holt Chit! I think I paid about $700 for my Ansa exhaust in 1987 or 1988. Doug
Ferrari can verify the original color, but you may have to join their website for some $ amount to get the info. Other than the original...
You need a friend with a lathe and some 7075 (or 6061) alum barstock. That is a 5 minute project Too bad you aren't closer, i have a lathe..:D Doug
Well, that was interesting, thanks. My eyeball estimate based on general muffler experience is the Ansa is a so-so muffler as far as robbing HP....

Well, that says for sure his radiator is working just fine. The T-stat i mentioned starts opening at 166, perhaps a tad cold, but anything over...
That why they call it "perc" as in percolation, like the old fashioned coffee pots. Remember the Folgers coffee percolator commercials? The fuel...
That isn't how it works. A T-stat regulates the engine temp to about the t-stat rated temp plus maybe 10 degrees. If your radiator is operating...
You have fuel injection, you don't "have" a perc problem. Didn't you say you had a '60s Hemi Plymouth back when? Did it flood every time you...
It is all evaporates in a few hours. Until then, thats why you have to crank your carb'd car over a long time until it cleans out the raw fuel....
"About" 100% water with high pressure systems. The reason i say about, is I am sure they add a little bit of pixie dust to the water for this or...
Yes it is. FWIW, NASCAR motors run about 280-290*F as that gives better thermal efficiency(power), but it isn't ideal for everyday driver cars. Doug
Never trust cheap gauges. I have a "good" dial gauge that is +/- 1 % (it cost some money). It correlates extremely well with the TPMS sensors/dash...
The problem with that is, the spec was done when gasoline wasn't ethanol added and had higher boiling points. Not sure how familiar you are with...
