    EFI to replace Edelbrock carb

    Ease of making adjustments. With a few keyboard strokes I can change fuel or timing at 250rpm increments from idle to wot. Same with making changes to “choke” or “pump shot”. And a lot of other fine tuning. And can do it in seconds. I don’t know a tenth of what the guys on here about tuning...

    EFI to replace Edelbrock carb

    I installed a Sniper in 2017 or 18. I knew pretty much nothing about installing one other than reading their instructions. I had some early issues, mostly my fault but Holley had some issues also. From what I understand many issues have been addressed with the Sniper 2. What I like is how...

    74 Duster 408 Daily Drivability with 3.73 Gears Vs Stock 3.21 Question.

    70 Duster with a 408. Had 3.23’s when I had the 340 in it, switched to 3.73’s when the 408 went in. 245/60-15 tires. 3.73’s are a LOT of fun in town, but I was going into 2nd before I could out of an intersection. And interstate I was not comfortable going very far. Put the 3.23’s back in...

    Is Hot-rodding & Hotrods on their way out

    in our area we are not seeing younger people joining established clubs. Our snowmobile club, fishing or hunting groups, anything that is run by volunteers is all 50+ yrs old. There’s a few young guys at car shows, they are into the cars they saw as teenagers so just not our era stuff

    Small block and trans install on the k frame from the bottom advice

    Done it from below a couple times. Went in easy and with everything mounted, if I remove engine again it would be from below. I did raise rear wheels and put them blocks. It got the whole car that much higher

    Just a little memory, maybe a confession.

    I had similar in a 79 CJ5. Had a decent stereo, had speakers bolted down so could whale on them and not get them out. For the stereo I took two 1” wide pieces of steel, sharpened them and crisscrossed them underneath from the bottom of the dash to the firewall. Someone that didn’t know would...

    Dual Hood Scoops Functional

    I did. They don’t direct air into the air cleaner but they cooled down the temperature in the engine compartment considerably

    Jeep issue

    If this isn’t allowed delete it, Daughters new to her 2014 Jeep Patriot, 2.4L. Its keeps throwing a p000a code, slow response from “a” camshaft position. I have pulled the VVT solenoid, seems to test OK using a 9v battery, cleaned it and reinstalled. Changed oil, looked really dirty first time...

    It's kind of a mopar...2017 Cherokee starting system issue

    Both batteries under front seat. As far as I know not a police vehicle, she got it with fairly low miles. As I understand it, has to do with the start/stop feature of turning off engine at stop lights. Dash lights and everything runs through the little battery

    It's kind of a mopar...2017 Cherokee starting system issue

    Found it I think. There’s a fuse block under the jumper cable connector. One blown. Think it’s a 80a fuse but you have to replace the whole block. Heading to the pick and pull tomorrow and grabbing one. As always, appreciate the fast responses!!
