Re: Got spanked last night!!!

Re: Got spanked last night!!! AWD = more weight Ty = more weight than SY ^ = slower acceleration at highway speeds. I don't care what people SAY about wind tunnels. If you have unbiased documentation stating the results of wind tunnel testing for a Ty or Sy, please post it. My LT1 had a 9"...

Re: Got spanked last night!!! These trucks are always going to be slower on freeway pulls in comparison to a car that has the same weight/power. All wheel drive and being the shape of a box makes these trucks a poor performer at freeway speeds. The Syclone's are not as bad as the Ty's but they...

Re: New ty 1568 TX I bought a new house, so I had to get her running so she would not have to be towed to the new house. It took a few days but she is running. I need to get a tune and I think I have a turbo that needs to be replaced. I am not going to be spending much time on her in the short...

Re: My Built 92 Typhoon for sale does the truck have any rust?

Re: New ty 1568 TX Thanks guys. I have already ordered a new silicone vacuum kit and next will be plugs, wires, pcv, cap/rotor, and gaskets for the motor to go back together. I will get some more pics once she is back together.

Re: New ty 1568 TX I believe it was number 3 that was low and it was the second one I tested. I did test it a couple of times and it had the same results. I know I did not need a whole new motor but I picked up a long block with forged pistons, comp cam, and vortec heads for 650. I figure...

Hello, Just wanted to say hi and see if anyone knows anything about this truck. Guy who sold me the truck says he got it on a trade from a California guy. So I test drove the truck and found low oil pressure, overboost problem, and some sort of knocking. There is zero rust on the truck, the...

Re: KB headers, engine, aeromotive A1000, tranny/oil coolers I will be available for the rest of the week as I don't go back to work until Monday. Thanks, Bobby Strehler 512.745.0932 512.228.6888

Re: KB headers, engine, aeromotive A1000, tranny/oil coolers So, as far as you know, everything is in good shape? The motor never burned oil, smoked, or knocked? I will still drop it off at the machine shop for inspection but I don't want to have to replace crank, rods, or pistons. Thanks...

Re: KB headers, engine, aeromotive A1000, tranny/oil coolers Also, can you give me some more info on the specs of the long block (stock bore, good oil pressure, any work needed other than mentioned)? Are the pistons forged? Sorry if I ask any stupid questions but I am new to the SY/TY's...

Re: KB headers, engine, aeromotive A1000, tranny/oil coolers I will take the long block. I am in Austin. How close can you meet me? Thanks, Bobby Strehler
