    I need help passing emission first thing tomorrow morning

    Disconnecting the tan wire will make it run base spark (hopefully 0 degrees). I have no clue if that will help your emissions or not, but will make it a pain to drive the truck. basically the deal is to make it run hot and lean (close to stoich) to get it to pass emissions. obviously this has...

    wire connector

    Connect it. If you dont have a locking converter, you will be putting a bunch of heat into the trans and will likely kill it quicker. just my .02 chad

    I knew you would notice that Merk. Nope, not from a sunbird, just the way the prototype came.

    The truck is running....

    Good question.. The fender flares are on there just as a test, I think they are coming back off. The truck never had cladding on it, and probably never will. I am using the stock rear bumer though. the stock bumer that weighs in at .... 500lbs (not fifty, five hundred.) .... is not going...

    wire connector

    I thought VSS was on the Transfer Case on our trucks and that the connector on the transmission is for the Torque Converter Clutch?

    The truck is running....

    .... after being down for almost 4 years. I am glad to have it together more or less finally. Its been quite an ordeal (mostly due to one mr al dustan ii). None the less, I was able to overcome all of the challenges, and am pleased with the results. Thanks to Marty, Mike Lee, John Waller...

    turbo pressure

    Re: turbo pressure first, the stock gauge sucks. second, at idle you should be in vacuum 12-14 inches maybe. if i am not being silly here, the middle of the stock gauge is supposed to be 0 vacuum, 0 boost neutral pressure. why do you say you are overboosting? are you getting a code? are...

    What the F* is my tranny doing?

    Re: What the F* is my tranny doing? Are you positive its actually shifting into OD and not your torque converter locking up and unlocking all the time? when the TC locks, it sure feels like another gear shifting. Could be something relating to the torque converter circuitry that commands it...

    Upgrade F and R ends gear?

    I do not know about a 3.03... I do know that GM made 3.08s front and rear for 4x4 S-10s. I have a 3.08 front diff that I have setup for AWD now and a rear 3.08 gear set as well. If you are just swapping the guts, you will need to change the carrier to go down to the 3.08 in the front and maybe...

    can I put this engine in my ty?

    what year vortec motor? is it like the motor from the sonoma gt? or the later vortec 4.3? either way, the stock computer will not work (that i know of) since it is set to control port fuel injection, not central port or the spider injector setups. the fueling will be way off, timing will be...

    Worlds Baddest Syclone Ever - Almost complete

    i do not think its mike callahan's and its not marty's. this thing has been in development for at least three years now. started life as a normal syclone, and is anything but normal now. unless i am mistaken, it has a full tube chassis front to back. for what its built to do, i doubt there...

    the "soon to be" world's fastest syclone

    That video was taken at the Woodward Dream Cruise this year. Not sure what he built it to run, or what the full build list is, but having seen it in person, its a damn nice truck. I also chatted with the owner for a few minutes, and he is a cool guy, that seemed to know what he was talkin...

    timeslip database

    Sure, the phpNuke forums module is based largely on phpBB and there are tons of tools to migrate users and threads. chad

    timeslip database

    Thats actually why I think Nuke is the better option. Its free.

    timeslip database

    Looks like a pretty decent tool. I was thinking we could either go vBulletin or Nuke. chad

    timeslip database

    If we put the database on here, we could then tie it into the phpBB code and have it use the same username/password/logon information so the timeslip information could be self managed. this is probably ideal. the thing could do all sorts of stuff, like... require timeslips to be...

    timeslip database

    i am a php programmer on the side, this would not take very long at all. it could easily be setup to include scans of the time slips and what not. searchable/sortable by fast et, fast trap, awd/2wd, etc. chad
