Testing Edelbrock’s New E-Force TVS2650 Supercharger On A ZL1 | High Quality Fuel Injection Nozzle

Q: With regard to your recent comments about people preferring automatic transmissions to manuals, I agree most people prefer automatics for their convenience, but I suggest you also consider another reason to choose a modern-day automatic. I grew up driving manual transmissions, including a number of high-performance cars. I’ve also been to high-performance driving school, where I learned, and mastered, the heel-and-toe shifting technique. Even so, my recent purchases have been high-performance cars with automatics. Why? They shift faster than anyone can manually — professional or amateur — including matching revs on the downshifts. Lazy? No. I just prefer having a vehicle where performance potential is maximized.

(5) Kawasaki KX450. The 2019 Kawasaki delivers good but misleading vibes. It feels perky and powerful off the bottom and into the midrange, but in truth the 2019 KX450 makes less horsepower than the 2018 KX450 from idle to 9400 rpm. Then, above 9400 rpm, it takes off, which is why loyal KX450 riders like it so much. It revs. It pulls over the top, and it has quicker throttle response and lighter rev reaction than the old KX450. But, at 55.86 horsepower, it’s fifth in the horsepower rankings. 

Plaintiffs Carlos Victorino and Adam Tavitian claim 2013-2016 Dodge Dart cars equipped with Fiat C635 manual transmissions have clutch pedals that fail and stick to the floors. According to the lawsuit, all affected cars built on or before November 12, 2014, suffer from the clutch problems.

I was under the impression that certain companies that worked with manufacturers could have their products covered under standard warranties (like Roush for example). With the introduction of these new safety systems, many of those same aftermarket suppliers were no longer able to provide that even on models that had been previously allowed to be covered under warranty (ie Tacoma/Tundra)

There comes a time when spinning that small-block to 3,500 rpm in an attempt to avoid being run over on the freeway becomes tiresome. This quickly leads to contemplating an upgrade to an overdrive automatic. There are plenty of good reasons to choose either the 700R4 or the 4L60E. Both offer the benefits of an overdrive, and deciding between the two, the choice comes down electronics or no electronics. We won’t make excuses, convenience comes at a price. As Mark Twain once wrote “You pays your money, and you takes your choice.”

We checked to see if there was a leak from the clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder, but there were no external leaks. We then bled the clutch system (master cylinder, slave cylinder and clutch damper) to see if there was air in the system. There was a small amount of air in the system, but after bleeding it out, the clutch was still malfunctioning.

According to similar CBS news story, this is 2nd time for SAME problem. GM sure this time?https://boston.cbslocal.com/2018/09/13/gm-recall-pickup-trucks-suvs-power-steering/

After that, I removed the little pin (and the cotter pin) connecting the master cylinder pushrod with the clutch pedal.

As with all research projects, it’s unclear if Delta’s super-fast new charging technology will prove to be commercially viable. But a faster charging station is definitely needed to keep pace with electric-car development.
