    Need help with a cam

    I'm thinking about switching the cam to something bigger while the engine is out. I'm not doing the actual work on the engine, I'm not a mechanic and don't know more than the basics. Can you guys tell me if there are any reasons I shouldn't put one of the stage 4 cams in? If there isn't a...

    Can I eliminate some or all of the boots that connect the piping?

    I don't understand engines very well to begin with so pardon my ignorance but with all the problems with CAC boots blowing off I just have a hard time believing that guys making high horsepower have the same set up. Am I wrong? Either way is it possible to eliminate some or all of the boots in...

    Fel pro head gaskets AND O rings=problem?

    That's it. I'm hearing yes and no. I want to know if I need to take the heads off and change the gaskets before I put the engine in the truck. This topic seems to be popping up frequently and I want to try to put it to bed with the help of those more knowledgeable and experienced than myself.

    Extreme oil filters??

    Have any of you guys heard of or used these extreme bypass oil filters? The marketing hype looks good but I want some real world data on this thing. Not sure if they are legit if it's a good filter/system or if it's just another novelty. I need to get a very high-quality bypass oil filter...

    Need input on a radiator set up

    I am considering going with the flexalite 59274 set up. Do you guys think this is a good set up? Are there any down sides that I am not aware of? I am not a mechanic so I am worried that I'm missing something. Thanks in advance!

    New Pistons installation question

    I ordered a set of Pistons from Midwest. They are cut,coated, & delipped for her pleasure. My question is when they are installed are there any other considerations due to the fact that they are slightly different from stock or is it a straight forward installation? I can't think of anything...
