Re: Compression and cam questions

Well whatever intake you run keep it a dual plane. Your going to like the bottom end torque alot more than if you ran any type of single plane intake. A dual plane is more than capable of supplying adequate air to 5500rpm so your high end wont suffer much, but a single plane intake will kill your bo...

Re: Compression and cam questions

I dont see why that combo wouldn't work. Make sure you check your piston to valve clearance carefully. http://www.racingheadservice.com/Inform ... arance.asp
Also start with a base timing around 14btdc, and run a 190degree T-Stat. What Intake manifold do you plan to use?

Re: Compression and cam questions

at a lil less than 10:1 you can run 87 all day long. you dont really need worry about premium in till you get higher than to 12:1.
what is your base timing set to with this cam?

Re: Go Fast Alignment

I got a set of Specialty products Caster/Camber Bushings, they are a 2 piece design, +/- 3 degree, PN#24130 and supposedly you should be able to set your alignment to pretty much whatever you want. I had them set Caster at 5.5 on passenger side and 6.0 on drivers, .2 of positive camber L&R, and .15 ...

Alignment tech-(multiple threads merged)

Figured I'd start this thread, seeing as how a factory alignment will not really perform as well on our rigs vs. a stock truck. So what specs is everybody running? Specifically Caster. I'd assume that most of the daily drivers will be running as close to 0 degrees of Camber for tire longevity as pos...

Re: Dangers continuing '90

Yeah, i tried getting pics up with my digi-cam but the filesize was WAY to big to post as an attachment, so i had to use the cell phone. Modifying pics via cpu isn't my strongest suite. Im doing brakes and Balljoint Dust boots, and switching to manual hubs while i have it all apart too. Once you get...

Re: Coil Deflection

Im ditching the brackets in favor of the Beams. I dont want an 8 in lift. Not speed friendly. I just dont want the coil to bend, or deflect, and take out one of my shocks. I went back and re-read my previous post and it does look like im trying to combine beams and brackets doesn't it?

I see one bracket that appears to go over top of the front driveshaft and im curious as how it mounts with out contacting it...
