  1. $4.72 this morning in los altos, ca.
  2. good deal for whoever gets the dog. my boston would have my balls if i did that.
  3. going to have to get O2 sims or have your truck tuned/retuned for no cats if you ditch them entirely.
  4. nasty. reminds me of this one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7dT_ryT2aE
  5. those dont look like the right kind of ends. should be more like a 90 degree boot if memory serves me right.
  6. good looking pics daryl. where were those taken at?
  7. I havent changed anything but for what its worth i get a 20 percent discount on my insurance by having more than one car on the same policy so that its actually cheaper to own a beater than not as far as insurance is concerned. pretty sure most insurance companies give multiple car discounts as well.
  8. new escalades do. pretty sure those are them.
  9. For me being one who has a 2wd and 4.56 gears I would wait on gears until you determine your future setup. If your gonna go with a centrifugal style blower and a big converter, shorter gears would work well. otherhand, with a roots type blower you wont want that extra gear with the lowend torque its going to give you. i somewhat disagree with Dan as far as the numbers. we have very similar setups and my 60 ft is worse than his even with drag radials but i trap even higher at almost 99 mph because im much higher in the powerband crossing the traps. for what its worth my future plans of a big cam and possibly an 80E with a long first gear were part of the reasoning i went with 4.56's instead of 4.10's. But for all around performance gain a set of 4.10;s would probably be the way to go.
  10. not sure. mine is a 14 bolt and not the same as yours.
  11. just for reference, synergy in fremont which many of you have heard of quoted my friend $2,500.00 for cam/springs/pushrods/retainers/labor/tune.
  12. for me by doing the keys allowed me to set my camber up a lot better. before just turning the keys over an inch my camber was always off. had it aligned numerous times. after doing the keys i was able to rid myself of this issue and have been much happier ever since.
  13. i think a tune is definately worth it but I'd beef up the tranny first. Summer's coming, throw a bigger trans cooler, maybe shift kit/servos, colder thermostat and then tune. jmo.
  14. sorry for the late reply as well. let me know if you need anymore information....i would add if your gonna get 2 inch spindles then lower the front more invest in set of keys. ive been much happier since doing this then before with just turned keys.
  15. best - converter/shift kit worst - falken tires...thank god they're almost done.
  16. welcome to the site! you'll have to meet up with us when we head out to sactown again to race.
  17. yank ss3600 would be a good choice for that cam imo.
