    Trick Flow Specialties New Product Announcement - PRI 2025

    Dang, they flow 360 CFM at .600 lift. That's significantly more than my ported Indy EZ's at 345 CFM.

    Which Shocks for SS Springs?

    At one time I did have a 1 inch lowering block in there, but removed it for over-the-road clearance. The handling difference was slightly noticeable, but the added ground clearance for the road conditions these days was worth it. You can use two of the driver's side springs if you prefer lower...

    Which Shocks for SS Springs?

    I'm running two driver's side SS springs with single adjustable QA1's. I've tried Billsteins and Koni's and like the QA1's the best. I also have them on the front.

    Stewart-Warner Gauge Wiring?

    They typically have a 12V power, a ground, a sending unit input and a dash light input. Use a magnifying glass to look closely near each post. My S-W gauges have a very lightly stamped identifier next to the post. I'm wiring up a bunch of new gauges too, so I feel your pain. You can daisy chain...

    Stall speed

    My buddy had a 9" converter and it had the same characteristics. I always use the full sized ones, and no such issues.

    Cats on TTI exhaust system

    These are the ones Rusty prefers. The 100CEL are much higher flow than any of the stock ones which are about 600 to 800 CEL. They have a metal honeycomb instead of ceramic for increased durability etc. You can actually see through them, and they still work. It takes about 3 minutes for them to...

    Stall speed

    I run a 3 plate, carbon fiber lock-up converter in my ride. I read on these forums to spend the money for a higher end converter, which I sourced at Precision of New Hampton. It stalls at 3800 rpm, and locking and unlocking the converter in 4th gear on the highway at a steady state cruising...

    Exhaust fumes in car

    Full TTI with 3 inch out the back. The cats are 3"inlet/outlet with a 4" body. You can actually see through the metal hybrid matrix, so significantly more flow than a factory style converter. They are designed differently for different end results. One for maximum emissions reduction and the...

    Let's see some cool evac systems.

    I used a bolt-on -12AN bulkhead fitting that I modified to fit in the valve cover under the sheetmetal baffle that comes on the Mopar Performance valve covers (baffle is not pictured in last photo). I cut it to clear the rocker arms and the baffle, drilled a bunch of holes through it and then...

    Blueprint 408 in '63 Dart?

    My older USCartool Chassis Stiffening kit came with tubular, front-under radiator brace and tubular under-fender braces that boxed in the shock tower upper mount. I also welded the shock towers to the inner fenders, as mine were pulling the spot welds through the inner fender and used the...

    Blueprint 408 in '63 Dart?

    Didn't see all the previous posts before posting. Looking good! Do you already have an 8 3/4 or Dana 60 and disc brakes on the car? Have you swapped in stiffer suspension? Which transmission are you going to run? Have you figured out how to upgrade your fuel and cooling systems? Are you...

    EFI diagnosis/ engine stumbles at 1/2 tank .

    Does this happen even if the car is being driven smoothly on level road with no motion that would cause fuel slosh? If so and it's happening earlier, it's not likely a cavitation issue. You should pull the sending unit and pump and check the lines for leaks with air pressure and soapy water...
