Oil in the intake...

Yes the computer had a host of misfire codes, plug #8 and some problems with the IMC. I will keep the 5w-20 (which is semi synthetic) in until March when the weather warms up here in Ohio. I don't drive the car that often (I have a take home cruiser), but I will switch back to a 5w-30 or a...

Anyone Know of some good performance Mods, for the V-8's?

Thanks Thanks for the info, since it is a prototype/experimental the cost must be high?

Thanks... Well I have no smoke on startup, not that the oil would not burn up in the cats...I will change the oil next change, winter and all. The oil that he found had apparently been building up for sometime.

Oil in the intake...

Hey guys, When I had my $400.00 tune up about a month ago, my mechanic (don't fear I work on cars too, just don't have tons of time or a garage...) told me he found oil gunked up in my intake, he said that is what fouled my plugs. He told me he cleaned it and put new autolites in along with...

Where did you find a supercharger ? I wasn't aware they made a specific supercharger for the V-8s. Could you tell me what boost level/price andmods needed to supercharge the engine. Thanks,

I have heard discussion of having the cams welded, what does this entail, how much does it cost, and why is it necessary? I appreciate any information about this. Also does K&N make a stock style replacement filter for the V-8? Thanks, Bruticus

What type of pulleys ? I don't believe I am familiar with VDP pulleys. Are there any aftermarket exhaust kits? I think the motor breathes well being stock, but if there's a good system out there I am eager to hear about it. Thanks

I have a 96' SHO that has cost me a small fortune in recent repairs ($400.00 tune up, $155.00 coil, $200.00 tires and oil change). I really like the car, but come on this stuff is getting ridiculous. The car has 110k on it and I only paid $3500 for it in July. I used to race Mustangs, so I...
