  1. I probably have just enough to fill the whole thing once. Biggest problem is, I can only have it here for three days. The HOA will shit all over me if it's here any more than three days. I was hoping to have it delivered on a Thursday night and picked up on Monday.
  2. Thanks for the information Marc. Damn that's a lot more money than I thought it would be! I figured I would be in the $100-$150 range, but I guess with all of the crap I'm tossing that is porbably not that bad for to your door service. Otherwise I'd have to rent a uhaul and take it to the landfill myself.
  3. Bad ass, that is what I was looking for. Thank you.
  4. I dunno, what size are the ones in an apartment complex? 20'?
  5. Alex - LOL Just a standard size dumpster, like you see at most apartment complexes.
  6. I need to have a dumpster delivered for a day or two. Any recommendations on a company to call and/or pricing ideas? I'm getting rid of a lot of stuff. Thanks.
  7. A GUI? Surely, you jest!
  8. Rock on. Glad to see you, Adam.
  9. No blower, not even a Gen V, will net you 30HP by itself. His blowers certainly aren't the worst, but it's a far stretch to say it looks "exactly like" ZZP's porting. I can see quite clearly the quality of the work in the pictures you posted. Imagine what I'd see in person.
  10. Love you Buck, but Eric, I cannot recommend the work that Buck had done. There are too many of these home porting self-proclaimed "professionals" fucking up people’s car parts for half the price of the real shops. This work is best done by a professional who has experience and proper tooling.
  11. I'd be interested to see the size of your crank pulley. Another note to consider, the smaller pulley you run on the supercharger, the less belt surface it has. I can tell you with certainty you'll run into belt tractions issues if you go much smaller on the supercharger. I would start looking at the possibility of increasing the size of your crank pulley.
  12. Like these? http://www.musclecarclub.com/musclecars/ford-mustang/images/ford-mustang-1994a.jpg
  13. The 3800 crank pulley is 6.9". The map in that link I posted is the closest I have. I know I've got a CFM@RPM graph somewhere, but I'll have to find it. What size pulley is on it now?
  14. P.S. When I say don't port it yourself, I mean it. You can seriously fuck up the performance of the supercharger to the point where you lose massive power if you don't have the proper equipment.
  15. You need a CNC to do the S-porting. Don't cheap out on it. I have a source you can send the blower to who does great work and very reasonably priced. x.xx" pulley = x.xx" in diameter measured at the rubs. Dummy. It heavily depends on the engine setup. But the BEST has been around the 450WHP area, which is full cam and heads, etc. and a 2.50”. You simply cannot compare the 3800 engine to yours, it’s completely different and they make power completely different.
  16. P.S. I was taking the RPM numbers from memory, so they could be a little high or low. But the pulley sizes and related information are accurate.
  17. http://www.excellgtp.com/stuff/m90/ This information is for the GenV M90, so it's about 15% better in all categories over the Gen III. But you'll get the picture. The short story with your blower is: You can run down to a 2.50" pulley on it with is approximately 18,000RPM. However, it gets TERRIBLY inefficient after, say 2.60" which is approximately 16,000RPM. On a stock case you'll will make good gains down to around a 3.10" pulley, after which you enter into diminishing returns unless you have the case S-ported to reduce heat generation. The M90 turns into a heat pump under 3.10" unless said porting is performed. In all cases, after a 2.60" becomes significantly diminishing. Further, spinning faster than 18,000RPM (2.50") will cut the life of the blower, and it’s bearings, at an extraordinary rate.
  18. You can buy them for nothing, not worth the rebuild. Wish I had one for you, Jamie. But I've pretty much used or sold all of my Grand Prix and 3800 stuff. Post on ClubGP, I'm sure someone has one for a good price. Or e-mail Ed Morad and tell him Greenie sent you, he'll take care of you.
  19. I only go to WalMart for motor oil. I like the 5 quart jugs of Mobil 1 not really because they're a couple bucks cheaper, but because I waste less packaging. One jug is much better than 5 individual bottles. Otherwise, I’d rather pay the $0.25 more per quart to shop at Auto Zone.
  20. Interesting. Good input, thank you.
  21. Is that Firebird a chameleon like Anthony's?
  22. Do they do a lot of ass kicking? I heard it's like hockey with a football.
