Checked my oil level thr other day and noticed the engine bay is getting pretty filthy. Can anyone recommend a good degreaser safe washing method? I ordered a new pop charger cone filter and hope to clean up the bay before it gets here.

I was at UpRev last week and Richard was trying to talk me into the Titan VK swap. With a set of cams on an otherwise stock motor and tranny and a tune he projected 380-400HP and over 400 lb/ft tq. He was trying to tell me they could do the whole swap for ~$9000 but I'm skeptical.

The have a 350 at the shop that they swapped in an LS1 and they have 2 350s coming in for the Titan swap. All 3 are drift cars so they haven't had to deal with A/C, power locks, etc. so I'm guessing the total would be closer to $15K when it was all said and done on a passenger car with all the modern electronics.

Not likely. Longtubes eliminate cats right? Anything that has to do with the cat is illegal.

But people run test pipes anyway...sooo.

The only problem with LT headers over regular ones + a cat/testpipe is people can gut a cat and wrap it around the test pipe incase cops look under the car when you get pulled over. (if you're combining it with an exhaust, you WILL get pulled over eventually)

unless the section of the LT that replaces the cat can be hidden under a gutted cat, it's more risky.

in fact event the computer that you're reading this post about the post about the signs that are posted may cause cancer.

Just waking up could cause cancer - but I'm sure sleeping is likely as well...

Just eat your peas and you'll be fine... maybe a spoon full of boogers too, just to be safe - I dont think boogers have been known to cause cancer (yet).
