    Leak from oil cooler block off plate - GM LS 6.2L

    I haven't been 9n BITOG in years but for some reason this post popped up on the front page of my google news feed. Strange... Since I'm here I got my gasket from Texas speed about a month ago and got the old revision. Might be worth a call to them as they probably stock a lot if them.

    Update: Fram Ultra Failure Old thread locked

    Seriously I dont get why people are bashing this. A filter failed. You know this is the first time it has happened to me. It just so happened to be a critical part on the most exspensive thing I have ever owned. I need this car to last 4 more years okay. I said multiple times jay was great he...

    Update: Fram Ultra Failure Old thread locked

    The response I got from jay. Here are the only pictures I can get. They didn’t even bother to cut open the filter as they seem to agree that the dent stressed the leaf and that’s it. If you want to post a few of these, it is fine by me. We have actually made a video in the past about never...

    Upgrade Memory or not?

    If you really want an upgrade get windows 7. Windows vista is a resource hog. If you had 2Gb of ram and windows 7 I could see you getting another 2 years out of that laptop. A lot of people say memory upgrades cause a lot of problems. That is because of 2 reasons. 1 being that many laptop and...

    A Different Kind of Filter: Motorcraft FT178 CVT

    Is the filter change drain and filter change a tough job without a lift? I can get the car about 18" in the air with my stands. Just wondering if I should pay the premium for the dealership to do it or not.

    Fram Ultra Oil Filter Failure Before 5,000 Miles

    "I bet it was just bad luck-winter starts with thick oil causes the leaf spring to flex a little before the bypass opens, and there was probably a hairline crack that spread & caused the spring to break in two. Could happen to anybody, and if the filter was damaged in shipping it would've made...
