    Short throw shifter

    duane: may I ask what other shifter you tried? You CAN slam the R154 into gear, it just doesn't like to do it (usually making a nasty quick grind and/or a nasty click). I like the notchy feel, but I guess that's just me after driving sloppy FWD cars with manuals...

    Marlin Crawler Heavy Duty Bearing Plate?

    or people aren't checking the tolerances in their tranny so wouldn't recognize the plate deforming... quick shifts is what seems to kill thrust washers, so I can see why it wouldn't happen on a truck...

    OMGWTF Oil filter blew up, and killed my turbo/motor

    New car options!!!

    Cobra R is a race car, pure and simple and is lighter, stiffer, and meaner than a normal utilitarian Cobra. and no, the cobra R would more than likely be FASTER since it has almost the same power and is far lighter (yes I'm talking aobut the N/A Cobra R vs the S/Ced Cobra). cobra R also...

    what would it take??

    intake, header, test pipe, exhaust, and hope you can drive better than him... if all else fails, stuff his ass off the road with your tank gran turismo style...

    Marlin Crawler Heavy Duty Bearing Plate?

    it's CHEAP insurance, and MAY stop thrust washer failure... why NOT use it? I'll be getting one with my rebuild (might just send it to marlin to do)

    AR5 Trans Take Two: The Solstice Solution

    LS engines are NOT normal SBC's the LS series was actually built right, the LT engines where good as well, but they aren't nearly the same as the LS series. EFI is NOT hard people, the tank hes the pump and everything for it, run the fuel lines and wiring, that's it..
