Seen it the other day. Does this one have the part about the Fiat 500 at the beginning at their regular test track? It is amazing that that Corvette has that much more power and less weight than the Caddilac, and it isnt that much faster, and on the twisty roads, was just as good if not better than ...

He must be running a modified intake. It looks like a stock Quad 4 HO intake on the last pic, but it is obviously upside down, but it must be reversed. A stock Quad 4 HO intake normally has the throttle body pointing towards the bellhousing, which would make a reversed intake point towards the front...

I Dont know if they turn backwards or not, but they are mounted backwards in the engine bay. I dont know if the newer ones are or not. I just noticed it in the wreckers and they usually have stuff 10 years and older there.

Probably not. Some mitsubishi motors turn backwards anyway. Like the talon motors. Tranny is on the passenger side of the engine bay. Just like the older honda's.

I heard somewhere that the Getrag's synchro's dont work well after 6500RPm or so. Or the oiling is reduced because the gears are spinning too fast. I cant remember what. But I have a 92 Getrag with 100 miles on it, shifts way better than my old 90 getrag with 200K on it, but still is very notchy at ...

If oil leaks out of the pan gasket, then it will run down the pan, and out the bellhousing. If it is the rear main, it will leak down the block and the flywheel. Gaskets and seals get old and dry out if the motor is not used often. How long was your crate motor sitting for? The seals could all be dr...

I have heard the ecotech and a certain saab that uses their version of the G6 6-speed are the same bellhousing. But not confirmed yet.

I told her to take it to a garage in the city. I dont live with her, she is about a 1.25 hour drive away, and you have to take the coilpacks and something else off to get to the rear plugs. I am actually more worried about the plug breaking off in the hole. Once the garage does the plugs, I will pul...

Yeah I have the stock one on the front, and that one on the back, I think it is a 13mm bar. I mounted it behind the a-arms and attached it to the cradle by the parking brake, and to the a-arms by some holes that were already there. If my exhaust wasnt in the way, I would have mounted it to the rear ...

I would add a small rear bar to your fiero at the most. I would not put a front bar on the back, I would go about 1/2 the size of the front or smaller. Putting a rear bar on the back of a Fiero gives you flatter cornering, but makes it alot more prone to having the back come around on you, and it ma...

That is the problem, I wnat to change them, but I only got 1 out, the other seem to be stuck, but I didnt really heave on them. I dont want to break a plug or strip the threads. Judging by the gap on the platinums that are in there (I got 1 out, the hardest one under the alternator on the back side)...
