    serpentine upgrade, fan almost went through hood. Anyone done this with a flex fan?? pics inside

    Since you're in need, look up cold case radiators. They make a real nice setup with fans an a shroud as an option. They work very well, I'm a dealer if you'd like I can see what I can do on a setup for you. Alternatively I have a stock radiator an shroud with a 2002ish jeep grand Cherokee...

    Green Gas Monkey Wrecked Truck being rebuilt.

    So he's back at it with videos on the truck. He got the front sheet metal out in this latest one. Not only could he not remember who gave it to him, its the cheapest, bottom of the barrel parts you can get. We were trying to get him quality, restoration level stuff. While I may not care for gas...

    Holley terminator stealth efi

    This, Acceleration enrichment is probably too high. Drop it a little in the area it stumbles an see how that helps If you haven't driven it much I'd get the base table dialed in better before changing the modifiers. If the base table is also to rich the problem could go away as the base is...

    40% on the windshield, 15% on all the rest I believe. Impound seems a little harsh, it's usually just a fine an a fix it ticket here. Some officers will just make you peel it off right then an there from what I've heard. No, actually all the tint on the car is technically not ok lol. Cars are...

    Windshield tint done. I really like it so far. This was right after it was done so I had the side windows cracked a little so it could dry out. Its not as bad at night as I was worried it would be...

    New daily driver

    small updates, not to much picture worthy though. Had the mid-muffler delete done, installed a hellcat lower air box, new tires (went with 275s) an i think the windshield is getting tinted next week. I did quite a few burnouts before the new tires went on. Those were fun.... Biggest issue at...

    Mevotech suspension parts

    I tried them out on my son's 95 to save a few bucks over moog. I was not impressed an won't use them again. I used the Supreme version too an still felt it wasn't up to par with moog.

    Fitting a 76’ Grille in my 79’?

    I used just the center an end pieces (out by the headlight) to put a 73/74 grill in my 78. You need the same parts for that grill. I have a new set of the 73/74 brackets for $68 plus shipping.

    Nv3500 swap help.

    My engine is a 2 piece as well. You can do exactly like i did in my thread clutch/flywheel wise. As far as i know you'll need to use the throw out bearing for the trans. That style you posted is for upgrading an older trans to hydraulic. If you're dead set on using a stock master, you'll just...

    Nv3500 swap help.

    You don't setup an factory one, it's all set based on when it's made. You just bolt them on an go. As long as you use it with a factory pressure plate there's nothing to measure or set, you have to use a 96+ pressure plate though, not one for a square.
