    Winter transmission builds

    I don't understand why so many people think you need a glide. Most of the guys I know that run a glide have at least 2 of them and 3 or more converters. I've also seen some go slower with a glide vs 3 speed. Been drag racing 48 years with a torqueflite never blew one up . Been with A&A for over...

    Why does the suspension look like i drove over a rock?

    Try running more tire pressure adding a 1/4 lb. at a time until your 60 ft. starts to slow then go back to the best 60 ft pressure. Just a thought.

    E3 Spark plugs do work

    I havn't been to the track yet. I tried indexing the plugs once and there was no difference in performance. I can buy the E3 for $5.45 ea. and the NGK for $3.10 ea. So I'll spend that little extra for the power.

    E3 Spark plugs do work

    I used the plugs E3 recommended. I don't know how the heat ranges compared to each other. I have nothing to go by. I don't have any pictures but the E3's definetly have a different looking electrode on them. We where surprised at the hp gain also.
