You and I have very similar engine setups. I don't have any overheating problems (except for last year, but that has been traced to a gummed-up radiator), so maybe I can help. I run 10BTDC static tim

The bolts holding the half shafts to the diff are a huge pain. I've always had a tough time with them, using two wrenches while laying on your back is never fun. Plus the nuts are very prone to round

As others have stated, it's much easier to pick up a gearbox that already has o/d on it. Bolting an o/d unit to your non-o/d gearbox is harder than it sounds. It requires a new mainshaft, because o/d

My mistake, I meant to say "reliable, streetable 200 hp". Good point, you can get 200hp out of a 6 no problem, but I don't think it would be too good on the street. Well, maybe it could be done with

I would think that 205/55-16 or 205/60-16 is the way to go for tire size on a 16" wheel. There's a lot of tire selection in 205/55-16 because that's an OE size on many sporty cars. I really don't thi
