Sticky idea

I'm wanting to make a sticky to answer most of the tech questions asked on the boards. I never really did a lot under hood of mine so there are a lot of combinations I don't know. Info I'm looking for:

Spark plug heat range vs. boost vs. gap vs. brand.

Pulley combinations vs. boost vs. belt size

lowering combinations vs. ride height vs. spring rates.

Complete parts list for lowering i.e. all known coils vs. drop level and shackles, hangers, sliders, clunk washers, shocks, etc...

a cross reference of brake pads ie, brand, vendor, compound, characteristics, etc...

Known tires: size vs. height vs. compound.

Wheels: min/max offset/backspacing.

I mean there are just so many repeat ?s that could be taken care of with one or more stickies. It could be used to list vendors as well.

Just an idea. I know it would take a lot of work, but with the folks in here plus a few known experts it could be done and it would be a huge bonus to a lot of folks. Since this my forum and my thread just drop you information that you can submit into a reply and I'll start piecing this together.

also locations of L unique parts like the thumb screws for the coil packs, etc...

I only wish I could take the credit for that chart.

When I first starting modding, I came across that chart after doing a search on spark plugs. Naturally, I knew it would come in handy so I saved it and put it in my gallery for future reference.

Bryan, this info has not been verified. It was taken from another site. I thought you might want to add the info to your developing database.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Lower Pulley Sizes

7.5 inches = stock
8.0 = 2lbs
8.25 = 3lbs
8.5 = 4lbs
8.75 = 5lbs

Add approx .5 inches for every 2 lbs.

Stewart, thanx man. I really haven't been fooling with this much lately, but as soon as track season is over, I'll get on it.
