    What is the meaning of Stock vs Modified?

    For me personally it's the difference between walking past a car and stopping to look.

    Alarm Security System

    Sorry, I haven't been on too much recently and lost track of the thread. I spoke to Ravelco recently because a local plumbing company has had several of their vans stolen, but Ravelco no longer sell to shops or previous dealers. It is done by their "in house" installers only similar to Lojack...

    Mechanical or electric aftermarket gauges?

    This. Except for the rust preventing bonus I had the same thing happen. About a year later a friend of mine had a small engine fire as a result of a oil feed line that failed. As long as the electronic sender is good and you have a good source of reverence voltage the gauges should read accurately.

    Dumb Axle Question

    I just upgraded everything so I have a 28 spline unit I no longer need. It probably has 50k miles max of regular driving on it.

    That's infuriating!:@ Did you find all of the pieces? I fix stuff like this all the time. If you want to send it my way I'll see what I can do.

    Anyone use Trick Flow EFI Intake

    I gave up on using that combo years ago. That was about the only option for a 5.8 out there when I bought them in 98 or so. It sits sad and neglected next to the Vortech R-trim I'll probably never get around to using either.:(

    Anyone use Trick Flow EFI Intake

    If you didn't already have a 351C I would go Windsor. I have a brand new 5.8 lightning lower and genuine 93 Cobra upper both extrude honed that would work great.Hint hint.

    Muffler suggestions

    http://www.spintechmufflers.com/ These used to be called Spintrap mufflers, but the original owners of Dr. Gas sold the rights to the guy that was actually building the mufflers for them several years ago. I have been running these since 94 and wouldn't consider using anything else on a muscle...

    Rust Tech

    For rust removal I would strongly recommend never using Eastwood's Gel Rust Dissolver. The active ingredient is hydrochloric acid. Health risks aside, several ounces of this (which oozed out of the faulty container) flash rusted everything within a 20 foot radius overnight. This included the...

    Wiring Question

    The cut yellow wires are just one common wire. I would connect it to a fused circuit like the cig lighter or dome light. I've never used one of those clocks, but I imagine it should utilize the ground wire in the harness you have there or chassis ground when mounted. Good luck.

    Anyone use Trick Flow EFI Intake

    Ah very cool. I think most of the 7.5 injected distributors use a remote mounted TFI module, but that's easy enough to accommodate. Thanks for the heads up.

    That went over my head, but I couldn't tell if it was a wrench or a joke.:-/
