141. RE: Intake manifold ... ceramic coatings (score: 1)

Probably a great idea. And relatively easy to test. After reading some articles on thermal managment, especially in regards to ceramic coatings, I couldn't help but notice the V8 guys are making quit

I bet it will. I think I mentioned this before, but I did that with a 50cc Grand prix bike engine about 30 years ago--a Kriedler. Compounded my own coating. Melted the first piston I tried to coat. G

That's a fundamental problem with Suburban and Tahoe's--relatively lightweight brakes. You can spend an extra $1000 on a big brake kit and have the dealer install it. But that's purely aftermarket as

I'm definately loosing my marbles. Didn't Mark Weathers do aluminum hubs along with the modified stub axles? I'd go for another set of those, whoever makes them. I'm going to try to persuade Bob Sout

I like them a lot--they don't break. Also love the uprated axles--the pucks don't get pushed back in your brakes. Having that much flex in a front stub is nervewracking to begin with. JK Jackson got

You don't NEED aluminum hubs, you can do other things to make the cast iron ones work fine. Step one is get them magnafluxed. Step 2 is to drill through the hubs to make the hub bolts into through bo

I'm not sure synched threads ARE necessary or desireable. You want to put some compression on the parts. Can't do that threading through. I'd guess that's not what Tony had in mind. The work has to b

Getting faster, especially in turns, doesn't necessarily translate into better lap times. I know that sounds whacky but it's true. The most you can make up by increasing your mid-corner speed at most

How much camber do you have now, and what kind of tires are you going to run? If you're going to run bias ply tires you only want 1/2 to 1 degree negative, and you can get away with zero. You only ne
