    Question: Roots style supercharger

    Here's a great looking job, new engine also but like someone already said, if you're going down this road you better be sure the motor will take the extra pounding. Zman's Website

    Bilstein Shock Advice

    Thanks for the idea, no I bought them from Tire Rack.........shocks also. The car does handle fine and it corners nice with these KYB's, they just transmit road imperfections very easily. If letting out some more air as 73shark said doesn't satisfy me I'll probably get a set of good Monroe's...

    Bilstein Shock Advice

    H-m-m-m. Not exactly what I was looking for. To me a stiff ride equates to feeling every stone and pebble in the road...........sort of what I have now with these KYB's. Thanks for the feedback, not sure what I should get but these Sports seem to be not the right choice for sure. Thanks

    Bilstein Shock Advice

    Do you have the Sport or HD's?

    Bilstein Shock Advice

    Yes, the goal is correct. The car is set up in the factory design suspension so I think I'm going to see about exchanging these for the HD version. This should be fun! Should have done more research in the beginning I guess. Thanks for the insight

    Bilstein Shock Advice

    Thanks for the comments; I have a steel leaf spring Hib. Sounds like I'm in the middle someplace. This whole thing started when I commented to some folks on how hard my ride was with Firestone Firehawk tires and I had to run 24 psi in the tires to get a decent ride without feeling every...

    Bilstein Shock Advice

    I just purchased but have not received yet some Bilstein Sport shocks but am now wondering if I got the wrong model or not after reading some posts about them. I don't do any autocross stuff, just some "spirited" driving now and then. I'm wondering if the HD model would be a better choice, I'm...

    FS BG Tri Power Six Shooter for SBC

    Sold I bought this setup from the original owner who just removed it from his Chev. Street Rod. It appears to be in perfect condition, no evidence of fuel leaking, or tampering of any kind. The mounting holes have not been enlarged or damaged in any way. Looks like it was installed once and...

    Time for a motor rebuild

    Hey.....video looks excellent! Motor runs real nice and sounds good, you guys did a great job. Looks like plenty of vacuum for headlights too. What did you decide to do about the hood? At one time you were considering cutting a hole in it.:ugh

    Question: Bumper question (again)

    Here's some shots. I had to grind the top brace to get it inside the bumper and also shorten the round rummer support shown in the picture. You may not have that support in your car. I had to chamfer the black cushion all around with a grinder to get it to fit inside the new bumper. I used...
