    How is your vacation driving going to be effected by fuel $$

    Probably not by much if any. On an interesting note I used my boat more last summer than I ever have before. All the while gas prices were also the highest they had ever been.

I can't believe the people there elect officials that implement these stupid laws that don't allow you to modify your vehicle in any way. I really don't care for the ricers in...

    Jeep 2.5L Internal Engine Pics

    Long story short I had to tear apart my Wrangler's 2.5L I4 to fix a sheared off exhaust stud that had caused a major leak. Required removing the head to be able to drill and EZ out the stud. Wonderful DC quality here folks. It's a common problem and there is a TSB on it but thats it. Motor has...

    Well my marina closed down for the Summer yesterday and I pulled the boat today. Really depressing moment and time of the year.

    '94 5.0 Mustang performance mods questions.

    Aftermarket SC kits are sometimes hit and miss when it comes to daily driver reliability. Even at 6psi I don't think stock 19lb injectors and the stock fuel pump would be up to the task safely. Sure they might work but is it worth the motor to go cheap? SC kit of your choice will need to...

    Thought Ford used Motorcraft Filters?

    Well I changed the oil on my mother's 05 Ford 500 for the first time yesterday @ 3K miles. I noticed upon taking off the filter that it was not a Motorcraft design but looked exactly like a Wix or Napa Gold. Totally white can with a filter emblem, orange silicon ADVB, coil spring style bypass on...
