    Am i going to hit fuel cut?

    it depends on your car. every car responds to different upgrades differntly. ;) a good exhaust an intake will raise the boost a few psi. with the lex afm and 550's, your fuel cut will be in the vicinity of 20+ psi. stay away from FCD's. (fuel cut defensers) four washers shouldnt max you out...

    Power Steering pump removal ( making space?)

    if you were going to use the stock rack as a pseudo manual rack, you'd need to rid yourself of the pump, resivour, fill the rack almost full of PS fluid, then loop the lines so no dust/contaminants get in there to seize it up. do i recommend doing this to a 3500lb car? no, no i dont. but if...

    Shaeff's buildup (400rwhp)

    ok, i figured i'd update this sucker a bit: first off, after much help from my fellow supramania members, we eliminated EVERYTHING that could possibly hinder fuel flow. my entire fuel system was brand new, except for three things. those three things are- the steel hardline that runs the...

    Engine serial number?

    all 7M motor serial numbers start with 7M. look at the motor mounts and the crank to figure out the year. if they're square motor mounts, it's a pre '89 motor, if they're round, it's a 89.5+ motor. if it has a 6M crank, it's an 86-89 motor, if it has a 7M crank, it's a 90+ motor. thats...

    if the supra didnt exist...

    i like the '69's. i know you couldnt get a 454 in the '69's, but then again, you couldnt get a turbo supra in 86.5, but i have one ;) (obviously swapped) if not a 454, then definately a 396. i think the stripes look sick on pre '70's chevelles. that all being said, my dad has a 70 chevelle...

    cant rev past 2k rpm when driving

    well, i took it out for a spin today. i've got a shifty idle, i think it's a small vacuum leak. tomorrow, i'll figure out where the vacuum leak is coming from. i have almost NO vacuum lines, so it should be easy to find. :) i didnt boost at all, because i only have a few gallons of gas, and...
