    Jaws had a 3.42 at one time but I don't think they have it anymore, I've got a th350 swap and 70 on the highway is like 4000 rpm. I'd love a taller rear

    Car was missing bad, turned out to be #1 spark plug failure.....

    After replacing my turbo it ran great but after a few pulls I was getting a miss. Turns out the dang spark plug ceramic had got loose, sliding about 3/8" within the housing, kept blowing the plug wire off. Anybody ever heard of this? Do I have another problem? I replaced them all and it...

    Blew the exhaust side turbo seal..... T-04, How easy is it to change?
