![]() Any packages, or has anyone done this and can give me details on how, to get a 'ram air' type kit to bring it basically just cold air from outside the car into the carb air filter? I see cool air induction systems and ram air kits for fuel injection, can't find any for carb cars. When things get really warm, I start to loose a lot of horse power and someone suggested that. They said my engine compartment is getting to warm, and its burning very hot air. when I first take off once I get it out of the garage, it rocks. I can take it down the street, floor it just abuot anywhere in first any rpms..and get it to just squeel. But once I start driving, ussualy like 15 minutes or so, it'll loose alot of power. I don't think its the coolant, because that hits 200 degrees really fast and stays there. Even after 15 minutes it'll be at 200 or a little less, depending on how the weather is. Anyone have any other suggestions on what it could be? Oil heating up maybe? Do I need a oil cooler?
And anyone in the Indiana/Illinois border area that knows of a good transmission rebuild shop? I will buy all the peices. I was quoted like $400 for a syncro and another $400 to install it. I'm looking at $800 to fix second gear syncro in my car. And I found syncros, gears, shafts, way cheaper. Hell, I could get almost all new syncros and gears for $400. So I'm looking for someone who can rebuild it, or maybe buy parts too if they buy it for the same price as I'm seeing them. Thanks! - Kevin |
