Despite increasing gas prices, trucks and SUV's are still among the best selling and most profitable of automobiles available. And coming in at a close second, the aftermarket community is just as profitable as most owners look for the right mix of personalization and performance to further set themselves apart from the crowd. That's what makes customizing a new or pre-owned truck an unforgettable experience. The great news is, that most aftermarket add-ons are readily available and take little effort to install using simple hand tools and a couple hours of your time. I will go over a brief list of some of the most popular and cheapest performance accessories to make that truck more powerful, more economical, and have an enhanced satisfaction value.

One of the easiest and most affordable add-ons is of course a high flow air filter. Not only will this allow the truck's engine to breath more efficiently, but will give you a part that is reusable. In the long run, this will save the enthusiast in maintenance costs and will give the driver a fuel economy boost of 1-3 mpg on average. In addition, manufacturers like K&N and Airaid have a wide selection of air filters to choose from for any make and model of automobile, these retail for only $35-55 and the benefits will exceed itself in a matter of months. I would also recommend the fuel injection intake kits if money is no object, again these install in less than 45 minutes and have the same function as a basic air filter. These are also available in a cold air variety that feeds air from behind an air dam or bumper, therefore getting more increase of horsepower.

One such other add-on that is most popular is a custom exhaust. To compliment a more free flowing intake system, a quality exhaust is a must and will help dispel of all the burnt gases from the engine efficiently. An aftermarket system will also enhance performance figures and give it's driver a slight edge in fuel economy as well. There are some exhaust systems from Borla and Magnaflow that have a bolt on kit available which will eliminate welding work and having to bring your ride to a muffler shop. But for a more economical system, Flowmaster has a wide variety of kits that cost only several hundred dollars and is the most popular. In your exhaust search, try to focus on stainless steel kits to help hinder rust for many years to come. And most kits come complete with all the hardware-muffler(s), tubing, hangers, clamps, bolts, instructions, you get the picture. But best of all, a custom exhaust will give the truck a nice throaty sound that only a muscle car can do.

And finally, another basic add-on is a performance chip. Made available by companies like Hypertech and Superchips, a performance chip will re-educate the computer system in your truck to adjust shift points to better your fuel economy. These chips take very little time to install, less than 15 minutes in most cases, and cost around a $100 on average in most autos. A more technological accessory is a power programmer, this tool does everything a chip does, but there is more driver intervention of specs of your engine vitals. You can literally customize your truck's computer more completely than just a chip. But beware, these programmers cost more than 3 times the performance chip, and it's worth every penny.

And so there is my short list of performance goodies anyone can install in an afternoon's time. Additionally, these parts will not affect your manufacturers warranty. There are other inexpensive performance add-ons like hedders, mass air flow sensors, and transmission shift kits to consider, but require a little more work. The overall end product however, will be one of complete amazement and satisfaction as you finally turn the key and feel the results!

With $1b on Mortgage Loans, Gm is Back on the Hot Seat

General Motors Corp. delayed the release of its financial results for 2006. After that, the automaker missed the filing deadline with the Securities and Exchange Commission set on 1 March. To remedy the situation, GM requested an extension to next week. Now, the automaker is back on the hot seat with the risky mortgaged loans which was doled out last year by GMAC - an ex-finance arm. This fact gives Wall Street another reason to be anxious about.

Experts in the industry are saying that GM might have to cover defaulted home loans made by GMAC. Hence, the largest automaker might be on the hook for as much as $1 billion. Analysts added that this could be chosen by the automaker to swathe defaulted mortgage loans made to high-risk borrowers by the Residential Capital LLC, the former home-lending unit of General Motors Acceptance Corp. Last year, GM sold a 51 percent stake in the GMAC for $14.4 billion to a group led by the Cerberus Capital Management LP.

"People are definitely getting frustrated," said analyst Brad Rubin at investment firm BNP Paribas. Rubin added that GM, which has about $46 billion in liquidity, can safely handle a $1 billion payout. But the company's financial issues are stressing investors. However, Rubin noted, "I don't think that's going to impact the restructuring or whether GM survives or not."

It can be recalled that GM had restated its financial report seven times in the past two years. The automaker initially planned to announce its results on the 30th day of January this year. Nonetheless, it requested for an extension of the March 1 SEC deadline for last year’s financial reports.

The automaker’s exposure to the risky loans was one key concern of industry analysts. And according to analysts, GMAC was one of the factors in the delay. "Our biggest concern on the equity side is whether GM stock sufficiently discounts ResCap's subprime exposure," wrote Peter Nesvold, an analyst at New York-based Bear Stearns.

Subprime mortgages accompanied with higher interest rates are usually set forth to homeowners with troubled credit histories. One good reason why homeowners default on their overextended loans is the decreasing home prices. Obviously, it is harder for them to take out second mortgages or home equity loans for extra cash.

GM, the world’s largest automaker is certainly on the hot seat. Could it withstand the potential grilling? Would it needing Neuspeed cold air intake to blow favorable cool breeze to make the ambience bearable?

Apparently, GM has been living a roller coaster ride on its way up and to finally make it as the most sought-after automaker around the globe. However, the ride could sometimes be nauseating. And that is exactly what the automaker is experiencing right now. Since it was founded in the year 1908 in Flint, Michigan, GM has never experienced hard times like the series of troubles it is now faced with. However, the automaker is looking at these challenges in the eye. With a positive outlook and excellent strategies, the difficulties could be shunned.

GM, headquartered at the Renaissance Center in Detroit, Michigan, USA, currently employs about 327,000 people worldwide. The automaker produces cars and trucks in 33 countries. In 2005, 9.17 million vehicles were sold internationally under its Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, Daewoo, Holden, Hummer, Opel, Pontiac, Saab, Saturn and Vauxhall brands.

1979 Chevrolet Camaro z28?

just wondering what the stock carb in a 79 camaro z28 is? and how much power and torque would it make it just got rebuilt with new valve lifters ($96) Fuel pump ($65) new clutch pack ($265) timing set ($53) Camshaft bearing set ($65) Cylinder heads ($680) connecting rod bearings($73) Cast pistons ($333) Camshaft ($248) Piston ring set ($140) block piep abd bore engine ($613) exhaust (1000) and it got a rebuilt carb to ? we are redoing the hole thing right now and the engine in complete now just in the body process but just wondering what hpa nd torque it would have from that stuff thats teh major stuff theres a hole bunch of littler stuff that went into it as well thanks for the help
by the way the engine is a 5.7l v8 (350)
also is the stock rear axel locking?

I did one with flat top pistons, a mild cam, headers, and all smog equipment removed. It made about 280 HP, not real fast, but still fun to drive with those 3.73 gears. I used the original carb, the Q-jet is fine till you get well past the 400 HP mark.
On a side note, you are wasting the $680 rebuilding the stock heads (I made the same mistake). For similar money you could get some new Chevy Vortec heads, that have been good for 40 HP in some tests. The only drawback is that you need a Vortec style intake manifold, but if you are looking for more power, why not?
If you do make more changes, call a cam manufacturer to get a cam recommendation for your specific engind package. With the wrong cam, it won't work as well as it could.

Yes a Z-28 comes with a limited slip (not a locker) rear end, but it probably needs a re-build by now if you wanna lay down two stripes!

Provisional results for a year just beginning
Now well-anchored in the month of January, the SIHH, which celebrated its 20th anniversary this year, has become a major pole of attraction for the watch industry.
