Well I've played the N/A game long enough. It's time for Blown Alcohol. I have a Precision Turbo 4831B, its about the smallest turbo Precision makes and is supposed to be good to 400hp.

Its a factory Bombardier DS650 bored and...
1962 Ford Fairlane. Bought it in condition as seen in pics. Car was originally a 170/3-speed combo. Car is currently equipped with a carbureted 5.0L, T-5, and SN95 8.8 rear axle w/4.10's.

Motor: NA BF Barra motor that will...

Nanner is my 73 F100 that currently sports a stock 1996 efi 460 and E4OD trans. Long bed to short bed conversion and Crown Vic front suspension. This thing is fuuuun, but it needs to be more fun. The efi engine is torquey, but it is far far far from fast. The last plan was to install my 552/C6 combo straight from the...

Billet wheels have been getting a lot of attention lately. Manufacturers claim that they are much stronger and will last much longer than the typical cast wheel, and some claim higher boost potential as well. But one look at the high cost of a billet compressor wheel and most enthusiasts have to stop and ask themselves: Are they really good enough to justify the extra cost, or is it just...
