Just because the turbo is whining badly does not mean it is bad. Maybe you popped off an IC pipe. That would explain the screaming turbo as it is spinning very fast and also makes the turbo FAR more audible with a leak like that. On top of that, you also may get symptoms such as not being...

Use an impact wrench until the nut bottoms out. If you do not have air-tools try putting pressure on the joint like others have said.

Are you running solid motor mounts? I am sure I do not even need to explain why I ask. Also, just because the fuel you are running and intercooler is still what I call mandatory. You may not have any detonation issues but by not using the intercooler you are not flowing as much air into the...

The worst that will happen is you will hit fuel cut. Also, you bought a bleed type MBC. It would be better to get a ball and spring boost controller. I got mine from Dr. Jonez for something like $25 shipped.

I am almost done wiring up my engine harness. I also mounted my fuse block. Oh, and just to clarify I started with only pigtails of each connector and had to solder connects to make up the actual harness. That is why it has taken me so long. Also, as you can see my girlfriend's VR4 is in...

There are dry-cell batteries out there. They can by mounted upside down or however you need. They also do not require a battery box for most racing regulations (as far as I know). They also are alot smaller and lighter. Of course they put out less than 300cca...

Firstly, yes I would not swap in an iron V8. However I couldn't care less if other people decided to, it is definitly cheaper. Secondly, my whole point is when you say Chev 350 you are not referring to just one motor. You are not being specific enough.

A "Chevy 350"? Oh, all 5.7L V8s from GM must be the same. LS1, LT1, or and L98. Yet, I doubt you were even referring to one of those. I bet you mean one of the 1st gen SBC 5.7Ls. No offense, but only someone who does not know what they are talking about says they want to put a "Chevy 350"...

Well, an LS1 Longblock with transmission and PCM out of an F-body is usually somewhere around 4k, depending on where you find it. If you used SupraShopper's style mounts and made your own headers you could probably have the swap done for around 5k. Also, a dry sump is not going to help with...

Hehe, that "black box" sounds like a relay to me. The reason everyone is saying to use a voltage regulator is that you only need full flow from the pump at your 700hp range or whatever. Part throttle applications to not require that much flow, however you pump will still flow the same fuel but...

Good point Nick. The LS7 in the new Z06 has a 4.125" stroke, which is 104.775mm.

I have been watching your build. Your fuel cell install has been some thought of mine as I am putting in a 15 Gal. ASA LS1 Car ATL cell myself. No offense intended but your cell install has some issues. First, you weakened your frame by drilling holes for bolts. Second, you used parallel...

Oh, ok. Next time I know someone is stoned out of their minds I will ask them to count to 10 and report back when they are done. They will do just fine I bet. And also, that would NEVER hold up in court.

Why not extend the vent the whole length of the scoop? If nothing else, the benefits would be from venting the sides, not the middle. At any rate though, looks like some fine craftsmanship.

Not to mention there is no legitimate field sobriety test for being high. They can test you for the presence of drugs in your system, but it's not like a breathalizer.

Unless you killed someone it can not be that bad. I am not religious and the attempt to have me pray for you is an insult. However, I hope the best for you and your car. If this is a real post, the "po-po" can track you through the internet. If you have any knowledge about networking you...

That 7M could easily be functional. It is missing an alternator, however one could easily be added.

Really? I never heard of people supercharging a MKIV. Anyhow, I think most people by far prefer the turbo over the super for the 3.0L I6's. They make power up top anyhow... Not to mention BOVs...

CJSupra is doing that swap. Here is a link to his build post: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=27374

I would mount a fuel cell from ATL or Fuel Safe. Complete with a bladder and foam, possibly a surge tank. I would also run 2 Walbro 255lph pumps. This is my actual current setup. Now onto the differences as it seems you are looking for high hp. Run -8 AN fuel line to feed the rail. I would...
