    Question About PCV System

    I don't understand how this system works. It seems like it's possible for air to flow through the air filter, into the main inlet tube, through the small breather hose into the passenger side valve cover, through the crankcase, out the hose on the driver side valve cover, and into the intake...

    Busted an Idler Pulley This Weekend

    I was out 'datalogging' this weekend and lost the belt on a 3-4 shift. The Thumprr tensioner held up, but the metal on an idler pulley actually ripped apart. The bearing seems to have a good bit of resistance when I try to turn it with my finger, so that may have contributed to the failure. I...

    What compression ratio should I run

    with a forced induction built 296 ci engine running about ~12 psi boost on 91 octane fuel, with the option to go to 16+ psi on 100 octane fuel? It feels like you are ultimately power limited by the octane rating of the fuel you are running, no matter what boost/CR/spark combination you try to...

    Meet my two new friends

    Currie and Tremec! The ultimate buildup has begun. I'm collecting parts for an unbreakable street/strip machine. It's not going to be the fastest car on the street or at the dragstrip, but the goal is to race this car many years without worrying about breaking things. TR6060 with Pro 5.0 shifter...

    Vegas Road Trip + Shelby Automotive

    Took a road trip to Vegas last weekend to attend Greg Banish's EFI calibration course (which was awesome), do some drag racing, and tour the Shelby facility. Turns out they gave me the wrong day for the drag racing, so I didn't get to run. But touring the Shelby plant was really cool. Got some...

    Simple Whipple IAT Relocation

    Hello Whipple owners... I was disappointed that Whipple did not relocate the IAT sensor to after the compressor. As you know, monitoring air temperature before the compressor underestimates the temperature of the air entering the cylinder, and could result in detonation on hot days if not...

    There may be such a thing as 'too loud'

    Figured I'd take the exhaust up a notch and go for a cat-less Mac Prochamber and ceramic coated silver JBA shorty headers. I know I won't gain gobs of power from this mod. I'm mainly going for: 1) Improved exhaust note 2) Some small HP gains 3) Bragging rights 4) JBA headers are CA smog legal...

    NHRA Legal Battery Relocation

    Frustrated by my lack of traction, I decided to relocate the battery to the trunk to help with weight distribution. The arrangement shown in the schematic guarantees that both the battery and the alternator will be isolated from the engine (and each other) if the rod is pushed in. In addition...

    Octane Blend - Is It Safe?

    When I go to the dragstrip, I add maybe 8 gallons of 100 octane to about 1 gallon of 91 octane remaining in the tank. So 8 parts 100 per 1 part 91. If I run aggressive timing that would normally cause detonation with 91 octane only, what will happen in the cylinders? Will the 1 part in 8 of 91...

    Help - Rear Sway Bar Orientation

    I decided to go with the FRPP front/rear sway bar kit to help with autocrossing (maybe the rear sway bar would help with a drag launch?). Anyway, I installed the rear swaybar oriented according to the instructions (shown in attached photos), but when I look at the sway bar from the rear, the...
