    first pull with new motor

    Here is the first hook with the new setup. It could have been better but I had a few setbacks. I sheared all the bolts off in my sc converter and the only converter I could find was a single disk for an 8.1. Needless to say it wasn't happy in the truck. I also ran my 285's instead of the 315's I...

    need turbo flange

    Hey guys I need an exhaust flange for a s366. The widest part of the turbo housing is 4.25in. It is a v-band style. I am assuming it would be a 3.5in. pipe that is flared to 4.25. I can't seem to find one anywhere. The places I called didn't have any that size. Any ideas?

    I had a guy stop tonight with an 05 LLY. It is getting a louder knock and the oil pressure is going down. I checked balance rates and the #2 injector is pretty high.
