"Continuation parts" is an intersting concept. If old tooling is salvaged to make "continuation parts", I'll assume they are still in spec, but we need to recognize that all tooling has a limited use

It's not so much that the horsepower itself is derived... it's just that we can't directly measure horspower and we can easily measure torque, so we're left to calculate the HP. What we generally cal

Echoing Mike's reply, the primary reason to go to 15" or 16" rims is a much, much, much better selection of modern, high performance street tires. Additionally, while you may be getting a slightly fi
