    DOWNPIPE HEATSHIELD...DO I NEED IT?

    You got it right jdub, I'm talking about the heatshield that bolts directly to the downpipe. Incidentally, my car is a 49 state car and doesn't have a cat in the stock downpipe (or anywhere else now). I have my speedo cable tucked against the firewall so I'm hoping it won't be a problem...

    DOWNPIPE HEATSHIELD...DO I NEED IT?

    My good downpipe cracked, and while I get it repaired I'm forced to use my stock downpipe. Problem is the heatshield is a nasty rattling piece of crap. I can't stand the deafening rattle the tin heatshield makes. Can I tear the crappy heatshield off it and run without it, or will this...

    Lsd Clutch Replacement

    Actually I changed the differential oil today with ford hypoid lsd oil 90wt and it seems to be pretty good. No noise (it never did make noise) and I did a little burnout on my driveway and both wheels left rubber on the ground. So I guess it's all good. Still I am curious about the life...

    Air in cooling system

    I do feel better now...ahhhhhhhhhh! I've read your posts and I can tell you're a good guy Jetjock. I just thought it sounded a bit arrogant. Just wanted you to realize that we're not all a bunch of morans running around with a crescent wrench and a dime for a screwdriver.

    Air in cooling system

    Why? Is it because you're so much smarter than the rest of us? I hope our collective ignorance hasn't upset your delicate sensibilities.
