A great guy, Tom Ellis bought my car. He picked it up tonight. I'm sure he'll probably be on the forum before long and I hope everyone welcomes him.

I have not installed a steering resistor but if you think that there is a correlation between the problem suddenly occurring and the installation of the steering resistor, I think that I would at...
Thanks Clay! Good to hear from you too.

Mike,
Can you post a picture of your adaptor?
Its is imperative that the hoses are installed correctly from the adaptor plate to the remote oil filter mount. If these hoses are switched, oil will...
Some pretty scarry pics there. I can't imagine racing without a full rollcage.
The new site looks great!
I added a cigarette lighter. Ran it through the fuse box and mounted to the left center support bar that mounts to the lower part of the dash.
Hopefully the Jag rear end holds up to the slicks! I...
Got a G-Tech from my wife for Christmas (she's a great wife!). The G-Tech is also great. However, It frustrates me how much wheel spin I get with the T/A's. I get alot of wheel spin in every gear...
It's been a while since I've posted anything but I'm still here and still have my Unique.
I'm sure there is alot of new blood and that's great!
Every now and then you have to put aside the toys for...
Well along with adding the thermostat I decided I would replace the oil pan gasket since I had a small leak in the front left side. I had the gasket replaced professionally after about 500 mile...
WOW!
I got all my parts in but have been too busy with business and home duties. This weekend I should get a chance to get it done. Right now I'm waiting in the denist office and am doing internet catch...
I did mine after.
With the grinding only in reverse, I wouldn't think its a clutch problem. Typically all of your forward gears have syncromesh while reverse is not syncromeshed. This is why a lot of trans will...
Clay, sounds like your make good use of that new lift.
Parts for the oil thermostat should be in next week. It's too wet here this weekend to go out and play.

Congratulations! Your smile says it all. The Guardsman Blue w/ White Stripes sure looks classy.
Very impressive! Truly beautiful. How did you shape the ends?
We want pictures!
Clay,
So were you thinking about running the integrated thermo sandwich plate at the remote oil filter? That would work! First just route the oil lines, bypassing the oil cooler, (out of the motor -...
I saw that post too. I'm not sure how well the thermostat sandwich adaptor would fit on the Unique 427SC, at least with a 351W. There is so liitle room where the filter goes and the frame. You can...
Clay,
Currently your oil cooling system makes one big loop (out of the engine – through the oil filter - through the oil cooler and back to the engine).
After the thermostat think of it as one...
WBofTN, My guess your Dodge Truck’s oil cooler it is most likely an automatic transmission fluid cooler that is often used when towing.
Will not having an oil thermostat destroy you engine, No. ...
Phil,
Looking at the gear, I wonder if the gear wasn't fully seated and therefore its mating gear only meshed at very top of the gear. Either that or is was in too tight and bound. Also, I don't...
