2nd Time Back To Ford For 'clicking' In Tailshaft
I have the same noise from my ute sometimes I think. It is like a clack clack clack sound, like when they spin a spinning wheel on a game show. It only seems to do it under hard acceleration in 1st from about 4500 rpm onwards but it only does it every now and then on mine and never when I am trying to show someone! Craig was in the ute the other night when it done it. Definately from behind the driver though.

Go In For A Wheel Align...
My ute is lowered with 18's, no camber kit and I am still on the first set of tyres I got when I picked up the ute and traded the factories in for some jap tyres, still have plenty on them with only very minor inside tyre wear. Just coming up to 45000 km

The horror, the horror On second thought, maybe you should hop in the back of mine this time. Yeah that's right, I can just see you strapped to the ladder bars filming. Would anyone like to guess what the drag co-efficient of Geea's head is and how much time it would cost me down the 1/4 mile?

Auto Cooler
Mine is mounted in the front grill behind the Ford logo, in front of my APS intercooler. We tried it there to see what effect it would have on the intercooler, but there is no noticable difference in performance or back to back heat soak tests and the auto trans cooler gets plenty of air in that spot. It sits a good inch and a half infront of the intercooler so plenty of air can flow around it. I also have the intercooler water spray kit fitted to the ute so a jet sprays water on it to help with the cooling effect.

Torque Converter As Variable Ratio Drive?
I will vouch for the non lock up stall, I have a 3000rpm non lock up in the ute and it is a thirsty sucker, fun though.

Big Power. What Are The Cons For Over 300rwkw
I think you are runn a malpassi rising rate regulator though Craig so this would be increasing the fuel pressure to the 968's. I know that APS believe that the 968's are close to done at 330rwkw.

Bali Drug Runners - Do They Deserve Death Penalty?
Yep we should all have stickers on our cars that say "Drug smugglers - "Don't root em shoot em" They knew exactly what they were doing and what would happen to them if they were caught. These people have put a price on thier own heads ($10 to $15 k they were going to get paid) They each decided as concenting adults that they would roll the dice and try to make some easy money and basically bet thier lives on it. Don't sook now boys and girls and beg for forgivness and a jail term, cop it on the chin and at least die with the dignity you didn't seem to have in life. As a father of 3 young children I have no pitty for anyone trying to bring hard core drugs into my country with the intent of trying to sell them to children and those they have already destroyed by addicting them.

Corvette + Nos = Bang!
Once the fire extinguishers come out it's a write off. The chemicals get into all the nooks and crannys in the dash and will over time disolve the insulation around all of the cabling.
