    Oil pressure gauge crazy?

    grocery getter, the reason mine was doing that wasn't because of the fiber timing gear, but because of all the crap from the fiber timing gear that was broken off resting on the pickup screen. that blocked the oil from flowing properly hence i didn't have any oil pressure unless i was making...

    yeah i know a guy who put some pretty crazy ***** in his 04 ram. he has some kind of sub called "vibe". 6500 watts rms. 18 inches.7 foot cubic box. nuts. he has the gain, bass level, and bass boost turned all the way down and the db level is set at -18. but still yet if he turns his system even...

    Need help picking shallow subs.

    i know this thread is kinda old but if you haven't bought yet i recommend kicker. to get the most for your money you have to do your research. the reason i recommend kicker is their subs are designed pretty well to operate in the optimum hertz range for good audio quality. like my 15" l5 has a...

    Oil pressure gauge crazy?

    i have a four door but the only thing even slightly in my way was the brake lines. they run on the side towards the bottom to middle of the oil pan on the left side. i just pushed them over a couple inches and presto the pan drops right out. the new gasket only costs like 12 bucks at autozone...

    Oil pressure gauge crazy?

    fixed the problem this morning! :) turns out it was the fiber timing gear! i bought castrol syntec 10w30 and a fram oil filter on special for 20 bucks at autozone and came home. drained the oil, pulled the oil filter and replaced. then pulled the oil pan just to check the pump and timing gear...

    Oil pressure gauge crazy?

    Oil pressure gauge crazy?

    i have the same problem he thinks he had but mine really exists. and i was about to post this but i guess it's just luck. anyways, my oil pressure does drop when i brake. but also when my transmission shifts gears. and when i put change from/to park/drive/reverse/nuetral. and when i first start...

    cutting cylinders, i need someone with smarts

    to do a professional conversion it would cost a grip. more than the offset of gas you would save. and most shops won't touch it because it is not worth it. i remember one time in this old beater my father in law had (ran perfect but so ugly no one would drive) we disconnected the spark plug...

    manual in a 99 yukon?

    well what if i managed to get my hands on a 4l80E and then installed a manual valve body? do you think that would tough enough? because my engine has enough balls/torque to push way harder (i can feel it) but the tranny is my weak point right now. not saying anything is wrong with it, but it...

    Got 4K to Spend on the HOE =D

    black coffee, do you think the tranny you got would bolt to a 400 block? because i had the suggestion of putting the 350 internals into a 400 block to make a 377. my friend had it done to one of his jeeps. he got around 400 rwhp with an rpm cap off at around 9500 rpms. i mean if you have enough...

    American Muscle vs Ricer

    black coffee, whats the top speed with no governor? my speedo only goes to 100 but my speedo goes past the 100 mph mark by about .5 to .75 of an inch and keeps accelerating so i have no way of knowing my actual speed. and are they actually able to redline? mine just stops at 6k rpm with no redline.

    American Muscle vs Ricer

    beast 99, sucks about that 97 mph speed governor. i constantly forget about that. but then again i have a former DPS (department of public safety) vehicle (similar to CHP in cali). so i don't have that governor!:signs6: so :flipthebird: to the ricers while i enjoy unlimited vortec power!

    advice on rim size?

    mccullion, i'm located in yuma, az. but i googled those rims and they really aren't my style, sorry. and falcon, where did you get your fender flares? those are the type i have been looking for. you have close to the same setup i want (rollpan, fender flares, etc.). not a big fan of the...
