RE: Highway Highspeed Race

Spend you $200 or so on something other than UDP. Waste of money IMO. Long tube headers/Suspension work will help you better

RE: Highway Highspeed Race

John,

Is your ram air hood functional? What kind do you have? Have you noticed significant hood shake?

Thanks

RE: Highway Highspeed Race

UDP, L/T headers, and DEFINATELY GEARS...even if you go 3.73's (which is what i have), it will make a huge difference...

to put it in perspective, i have a 5speed GT with 3.73's...i drive 130 miles round trip every day in 70-85mph traffic and i am averaging right under 22mpg...not bad in a v8 muscle car IMO

Go ahead and spend the money on some cams. I have a very mild cam set up and I am at 311 RWHP

RE: Highway Highspeed Race

Yes my hood is functional, and everytime I go over 70 I get scared because of it, I'm considering hood pins b/c of the shake. and it's the California dream ram air.

As for the gears.... again my question earlier... I thought higher gears killed your top end?? and I was looking more into 393s or which ever the number is in the 390's.
