I helped a buddy of mine swap in a T56 6-speed transmission into his 1987 Monte Carlo SS. The car had a built 383 stroker motor, ported Bowtie heads, about 10.5:1 compression, lots of nitrous, longtube headers. Well, we had to remove the exhaust in order to fab and install the transmission...

I need the length of a SBF mounted to a Ricardo. Anyone have this information? Preferably a 351-W, but it doesn't really matter as the length is going to be about the same. I need the overall length as well as the length from the front of the engine to the centerline of the drive axles. If...

OK, I have noticed this about Chevy guys. Camaro and GTO guys especially. They all like the sound of open headers. At the street races here in Austin all the late model Camaros and Firebirds and GTOs had cut-outs or open headers and those guys all just looooved it. Sounded like sh*t to me...

In an unprecedented move, the IOC instead decided to award the medal to Barrack Obama. The Olympic Committee said in a Friday morning press release that "Obama deserves the gold medal more than Vonn because no one has gone downhill faster than he has".

AP: The International Olympic Committee announced late Thursday that it had reversed its decision and had taken back the Gold Medal that was previously awarded to American skier Lindsey Vonn in the Women's Alpine Downhill event.

Was just trying to watch it and they killed the server for maintenance for 2-4 hrs.

Yeah, I believe the transmissions and everything will bolt up. Be sure to get the clutch pedal assembly from a manual transmission V6 truck so you have all the mounting hardware and everything you need. The holes required should already be there. Be sure to take pictures and everything when...

Yeah, that's a Skyline RB25DET. It's the 2.5L single turbo engine used in the GTS-T Skylines up till the R33 chassis. The R34 used a NEO engine that had a few more tricks and no turbo from what I remember. Wonder why he didn't use the RB26DETT from the GT-R in that monster...

I've seen that one before, and I still think it's one of the funniest things I've seen. It sounds like something I'd write, and kinda wish I was still a kid so I could pull something like this. LOL

I knew a guy in Austin who used to come to our performance shop who had a pretty stout Lightning with a Gear Vendors OD unit on it. The truck ran 10.70-10.80's in the quarter and that GV unit didn't have any trouble at all. We also had a customer with an older 351-W based Lightning but that...

YouTube - Mobile Phone Gun - .22 caliber gun disguised as cell phone Video of it firing. Pretty cool, but pretty inaccurate except at point blank range. I'm guessing that's what it's used for though. I'm an avid gun fanatic, but I don't see this weapon as useful at all. I'd rather have one...

His birthday is tomorrow too. Hope he's not sick on his birthday, that would really suck.

Only thing I like about it is the engine. That monster needs to make it into the new trucks or Mustang for that matter. LOL

Congratulations man! Getting married to my wife was the greatest day of my life. I'm sure when the baby is born, that'll take over, but for now the wedding. LOL Congrats on the car too!!

That's so friggin cool that the guy who's car is the sound for the GT40 MkII is on this board!! I'm going to buy one in the game now. LOL Just so I can hear it!

Turbocharge that Audi engine like the old RS6 and then see how much power you're making!! With the direct injection you can get away with a higher compression ratio as opposed to standard injection or carbureted engines. I'm guessing they're probably in the 10:1 - 11:1 compression ratio area...

WOW! They gave you Forza 3? That's awesome. I have it also, got it for Christmas from the wifey. I love that game. Tom and Pete (if you get the XBox360) PM me your playernames and I'll add you as a friend. Mine's Conquest351, go figure. LOL Laters, Brian

Keith, I have no hard feelings toward you or anyone who doesn't sympathize with what's going on over here. No biggy. I still like ya! LOL I've always tried, in my life, to see all points of view on pretty much any subject. This helps me clearly make a decision which I think and believe is...

LOL Keith. I understand both sides of the argument. It was selfish as he did hurt other people. How was this different than the attacks against us on 9-11? He is/was a terrorist. All this I understand. And it's all true. You're right, it was a selfish, terrorist act. I'm not going to...
