    408 W2 Stroker Build

    Duke5A! Yeah, I totally agree, but man I tell ya: 1) 16" air filter, drop base with 1.6" of space above the TQ vent tubes 2) secondaries open for sure, no way my impromptu run could got "12.anything" ET on the measly 1-3/8" primaries alone 3) my AFR is reading crazy rich 11.5 at WOT, so I...

    408 W2 Stroker Build

    Let's see, how do I explain this w/o feeling like a tool??? LOL So the leaking pump "thingie"...took the pump out, pulled it apart thinking that maybe the pump halves do not have the sealing surfaces machined flat (or enough so) that when you re-assemble them and all you have is that rubber...

    Last Site Upgrade - it sucks!

    Admin Man! Thanks for the response. Fair enough, of course the site is yours, but for what it's worth: tell me please which of the new features were necessary to close out/address gaps that the "new people" were complaining about? Here is the thing (I'm a 30 year veteran of ERP...

    Last Site Upgrade - it sucks!

    Yeah, 64-bit hardware, but that's not the problem. OS/2 is a 32-bit OS, there are some extensions to enable the use of PAE for things like RAMDISK, etc...but the process address space is 32-bit with specific OS/2 limitations. Our ancient Firefox is simply not capable of supporting the pages...

    Oh lookie here, my ANGRY FACE response to Duke5A worked!!! (so I guess some functionality is back??? LOL)

    Last Site Upgrade - it sucks!

    LOL...well, not quite that bad! So this is more of a web browser issue actually, not OS, but for the record I am running IBM's OS/2 4.52 SMP (which basically means it is the last release which ended support ohhh, some 10-15 yrs. ago I think???). The browser in question is Firefox 45.9.2, which...

    Last Site Upgrade - it sucks!

    I am probably very much the ONLY one to be impacted by this...but it seems we converted the back end to show SVG icons/images/page framework(s) and seeing as I'm using a fairly old OS, well, that's completely made the site unusable. ...yup, as in: I can't even REPLY/POST, which is a do or die...

    Fall is in the air.

    LOL...yeah, this year's season kind of sucks for actual "road time" for me as well! My Hagerty insurance just got renewed, and it only gets more and more expensive each year for what ends up being a smaller and smaller KMs I drive my Coupe each season. This year I partly attribute that to what...

    WANTED Super Six or maybe V8 (??) air inlet

    Every M-body I have ever laid my hands upon had this air inlet. I've seen some installs where this outside air is channelled into an aftermarket filter setup, however most of such installs were pretty custom (requiring the cutting up of OEM filter assemblies and some add-ons to marry this up...

    Muffler clearance.

    That's an interesting place to locate the mufflers. I say this only because these things will give off some heat and man, unless you install some nice heat deflecting shield (either on the outside itself, like a metal shield between floor and the muffler, or on the inside between the floor and...

    Super Coupe

    Indeed, welcome to the forum! So the car looks to be in a really nice shape. Is this an outcome of a restoration you did, or (judging by your "...I am now the owner..." statement) did you purchase this given the condition the car was in?

    FMJ with Super Stock springs

    Hey Dave! I went looking through some of your posts to see if I can spot something that shows the 'posture' of the car you ended up with...but came up somewhat empty-handed. Would you be so kind as to toss a nice side/diagonal view into the thread here? I ask b/c I do not like the height of...

    408 W2 Stroker Build

    So the fire-up took place...boy, I was in my glory, with a bit of trepidation (which is always there to be honest) b/c with this level of parts I have learned to never expect perfection! NOTE: I have no idea how those of you who race cars manage to keep your wits about this stuff...I would be...

    FF torsion bars feedback

    Hmm...so I will provide my feedback, but take into account both MY starting point, that being: a completely rebuilt suspension, with various HD goodies (11/16" tie-rods, KONI adjustable shocks, lowered power steerign PSI on the pump, Borgeson steering gear, the factory 1-1/8" front sway bar, the...

    FOR SALE eBAG - Carter TQ - 9800 series carb

    DAMN!!! So that eBag link I originally posted was in fact pointing to the 9800S carb...heck, even the pop-up icon on my post shows that carb... HOWEVER ...seeing GTX's remarks I went back to it and lo'and'behold, that link does in fact now take you to a pretty decrepit TQ carb!!! No argument...

    AGREED!!! That carb was actually in a very nice shape! so much so I considered feeding my addiction and bidding on it...the only reason I didn't is because I was hoping someone here would/might scoop it up!

    Mopar - Woodward Roadkill Garage - sneak peek

    ...not quite the full deal, but the company I work for is a big supplier to Stellantis, so we got "a bone tossed our way" and were invited to come out for their prep-event. 1st time for me, so I wasn't certain what to expect, and my work day ran long (issues) so I really didn't get there until...

    Rear Swaybar bushings and links source

    Ahh, OK, so one more comment I would make: the ideal link<=>swaybar interface should be at a 90deg angle. For that to happen you really need to have the chassis fully loaded & suspension compressed so that you can get a real read-out of the end-link length to facilitate that 90 deg. setup. If...
