if you could choose between having your parking brake on the front instead of the rear, would you do it? the reason i ask is that i am putting a line-lock solenoid in-line on one of my brake lines to provide with a solid parking brake (easier than adapting e-brake cables in my situation, with...

i am a redline dealer (though i don't much care for it) and my redline rep was telling me that all redline oils contain zddp (zinc) even their motorcycle oils the epa outlawed zddp in motor oils and therefore all oils containing it must be labeled "for off-road use only" like royal purple...

not on any one specific engine or efi system. but what does the intake air control do? and how and when does it work?

obviously the wire harnesses and computers are different between the batch fire, and the sequential. but how does the hardware actually differ? would a batch fire manifold/fuel rail run on a sequential computer? how about vice-versa? what are the differences between the manifiolds/fuel rails...
