My highway MPG increased by 1.5 MPG but my local driving went down 5 MPG. Probably because I enjoy making the blower do some work.
If I could possibly keep my foot out of it, I'm sure the MPG would increase.
Alas, that wont happen because the giggle factor comes into play when my foot gets into it.
Your tire size does have an effect on the Speedo but it' is not going to be more than about 2-3 MPH at 70MPH.
Unless you're running monster mudders or something crazy like that, I wouldn't worry much about it.
Most LEOs will not bother you for a 2-3 MPH over the limit speed and it's entirely...
Oh no, the Tick made it to this thread....
I'm pretty much over the tick threads, there must be at least 100 different tick threads....please no more....ughhh.
Parts Geek has them for sale at about $50 bucks each.
Buy the Timken PN# HA590577. They are in a timken box but FoMoCO is staamped on the flange.
I bought 4 as I'm sure I will probably be going through them every 20K or so.
Oh, Made in the USA too! who woulda thunk it?
My RR wheel bearing failed at 23k on the odometer. I have 305s on the rear and almost everything BMR has to offer other than lowering springs.
GForce half shafts ( I have a Roush blower ).
Noted a slight strange movement in the rear followed by a clicking noise.
I searched for parts online and...
The must salt the roads in Iowa pretty well. Lots of corrosion on that unit.
Might want to be generous with the never-seize when putting it back together.
Well I have XXX so mine is best......
Is it a daily driver with occasional "put your foot in it" or a car you play with at the drag strip on a regular basis?
I have a Roush and I'm happy with it. I have a Bud with a Whipple and he is happy with his.
Pretty close to the same power.
Both will give...
The roush instructions on the 15-17 has two pages of changing the spark plugs but vague instructions on how much to grind off. A real pain.
One would think that if you were going to tackle a project like this, you wouldn't need two pages to tell you how to change plugs!
Are you saying that you TOLD the dealership that you were road racing the car when the engine blew up? What the service manager heard was... "you see, I was at this meet running the piss outta my 'stang when all of a sudden she let lose. I only over-reved her on a few down-shifts, but I'm...
I hear 3:31 is a good ratio. Your PP has a lower ratio than that though. You are going to be out of 1st so fast you might as well ignore it.
At least that's what I hear.
Very interesting read indeed! I almost broke out the popcorn. This is good enough for a movie.... all the twists and turns of a good drama!
I think we should start a "go fund me" page so that the OP can sue the shit out of Livernois.
Wanna bet it would never get to court? Lawyers cost money on...
I've got the Roush set up and am pleased with it overall. I was looking at the Whipple and to be honest, it was a toss-up.
there was an incentive to purchase the Roush so I went that way.
I sure wish it sounded like that Whipple!
I don't think you will go wrong with either choice. Oh, and the...
No doubt. Whom ever it was, floor sweeper or junior wanna-be Tech, they should be fired on the spot and seek a more mundane job, like cleaning toilets.
Thank God I'm able to do most everything myself. That would really piss me off.
There is NO excuse for a Technician to do that! Probably told the guy that sweeps the floor to mount those headers.
No doubt, the aft bolt will require a helicoil. Bad news is, the engine will need to come out to be...
