Thanks Ted I tried the Ford dealer and they can not get them pre-bent. I'll try MPS and see what they say. Thanks for the line size and tips on the AN tube...
Dean, I haven't purchased anything from these folks, but I was looking for the same thing (brake lines for 8.8"). http://www.classictube.com/ HTH, Jeff ... ...
I finally got the problem solved with my 88 Saleen as it was a combination of 2 things #1-There was a ignition problem which Ford fixed under a recall notice....

Now that I have my car running perfect I need to get it smogged so it can be street legal and registered for street use. The car has all the smog stuff ...

I just picked up one of the Harbor Freight aluminum jacks for $175 (CA Bay Area 8.5% tax) out the door. The website is showing the price as $179.99 and I was...
I suspect that some shops don't want to deal with the possible problems that may occur if you're not on the up and up or are an under-cover investigator. Just...
The story I got when I lived in the Peoples Republic of CA: Items that have an EO # are tested individually. No telling how they will behave collectively when...
It's in! 2000GT rack and pinion, Steeda/Baer bumpstear kit, Steeda X2 balljoints, flaming river steering shaft. Drove it down the road and back, definite ...
Long as you don't mind being a backmarker. ITB Mustangs are no real competition to BMWs and FWD cars in the class. Actually a Pinto is more competitive in ITB...

Is this GP only for those specific parts, or is it like 20% of anything you order? I am about to order some Dr. Gas stuff, and my contact is no longer there...

Guys- There have been several notes about people changing over to racing, and getting ready to pick / buy / rent a car. Let me put in my $0.02. As someone...

My thoughts exactly Scott. The only thing cheaper is the car you own. But if the car you own is not a model good enough to win you will spend nearly the same...

This might sound odd, but you might get good results from a "test-only" or "referee" station. If you know the right equipment is all in place and functioning,...

Yeah, it was a good race in that division. I wish the TFFR Foci' has made it out - we had more HP than the Cavalier last year, and the way Daytona is set up,...

Scott, This, from a guy who works for Ford? Who's your boss & his number? ;-) I had to find a cheap sport too and keep myself in shape in the same time! I got...
I understand the Cavalier may run the series but possibly not with the same drivers at each event (meaning Caroline probably rented the seat). I agree you can...

Steve, Could you forward that 10% coupon to me. I think it is time for me to buy a new jack. :) Thank you. Tim 92GT...
Only two things I don't like about the Miata: 1. Not really a hardtop from a safety point of view. Minor issue to consider. 2. If you are over 160 lbs or...

Well there is a full roll cage. THAT is what you should counting on in the case of a rollover. Most areas do require a hardtop to race, although it's true...
