I have had AT&T for years now and I feel its time for a change to another provider. Currently considering T-Mobile or Verizon. What cell phone service are you guys using and would you recommend them?

Got back from Mexico yesterday and came home to a LOT less snow. I can see my entire roof again!

Now that I have torn down my engine and put it back together I am trying to get it to run a little better and a little cooler. Based on the cam that I found in the engine, I would like to run the initial base timing at 16-18* and have the distributor changed so it adds only 18*of mechanical advance with all in ar...

I want to switch the insurance on my collector cars to a specialty provider. I was thinking about Grundy, Chrome, Hagerty or Condon & Skelly. Anyone familiar with any specialty providers they would recommend or warn against? -- Edited by OscarZ on Wednesday 16th of February 2011 02:19:14 PM

I have my 70 Camaro in the body shop now. They are doing the small amount of body work, but are also blocking and sanding the whole car. This means I could do a color change.

I don't usually pick up Muscle Car Review, but saw it at Barnes and Noble the other night and the cover story is 70's/80's street freak cars. I thought it was pretty cool as it is the style I am going with my car, although not to an extreme. It featured three cars, a 71 cuda with the custom 70's paint, a 66 chev...

I have to replace the stator support on my 200-4r so off goes the pump.

The 402 I'm working on has aluminum roller and roller tip rockers. I read in a How To book that for big blocks, roller rockers aren't really recommended because they don't allow as much oil flow to the pushrod. I'm considering putting stock stamped rockers in for a few reasons: 1. Reliability and repa...
