Has anyone installed an oil pressure gage on a 7A? Where is there a port on the block? Anybody know if its NPT or BSPP thread?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Shaving the head does not change displacement at all. Displacement = bore x stroke. Unless you're boring the engine or changing the crank, the displacement stays the same. Changing the deck height ...

It wasn't ever done to save weight. When you're taking about shaving a head, you're talkin about taking 0.040". Thats not even going to save a pound. Its done soely to raise compression.

Sorry Pandeo, you're way off. The Bosch +4s don't do a thing. Same deal as the Splitfires of a few years back. The spark will always travel along the path of least resistance, which will usually be...

Yeah, that most likely refers to the inlet, but you might be wise to wait until you get it to see.

Amsoil is a great product. I also highly recommend BG Synthetics (available only through your local distributor www.bgprod.com) and Mobil 1.

17-20% total drivetrain loss is pretty typical for a street car. It is possible to improve that number by a few percent by having REM treatment done on all the gears and the splines on the input shaf...

Nope, they're not made to fit the GT although I have had customers that bought them and supposedly made them work on a GT. I don't recommend that, but there aren't a lot of other options unless you w...

Interesting. It sounds like they're checking all the right things but perhaps they're not doing it right. I'd take the car somewhere else and see what happens. It is most definitely a rotational im...

Its probably not worthwhile if your car is stock but if you've done some things and want to get the most out of the package then it totally is.

I'm pretty sure that nobody makes one. You can make your own, but if you have cruise control you'll likely have to relocate the cruise control module.
