Battery ground wire question
The - cable should ground on the block.Usually up front near the fuel pump.But i relocat them to as close to the starter as i can.And having the cable also grounde to the chassis is a good idea.

Overheat again!
No i won't leave it alone.You are advocating a "magic potion in a bottle" over a properly maintained cooling system.And assuming your temp guage is accurate-you are running TOO COLDand are losing HP,efficiency & mpg's. And i didn't say i didn't like WW-i said it's not needed for your average car.Track cars are another story and then WW has it's advantages.On the street all things being equal,it has none.

shredded tire
Had a tire on my Ram blowout sitting in my yard(65 psi at over 130 degrees).Only a couple years old.Then last week one on the 810 started seperating.Got it replaced before any issues.I've only had tire issues here in Az. with big time heat as a factor.

Exactly what part of Water Wetter is a band-aid that can mask REAL cooling problems and that proper cooling system maintenance will prevent ANY issues(thus making WW point-less) did you not understand? I live in Tucson.And for the past 60 days it has been in triple digits.The car is an automatic with A/C and runs at 190 all day long and 200-205 at 80MPH.Why haven't I over-heated the engine since i do not use WW.

Overheat again!
Houston isn't warm.Tucson is warm(er).Three core brass,50/50 mixed(distilled) and no issues.If if it(WW) gives you POM,then great.But my point is,that if water wetter effects engine temp,there is a problem lurking in the cooling system(or engine) and the WW is a band-aid of sorts.

"Compatible"-all that means is there is no adverse reaction.Doesn't mean it was DESIGNED to enhance a water/glycol mix.Proper cooling system care trumps all.Bottom line the stuff is not needed.

Water-wetter is NOT designed to be used with glycol.

That method is actually in a FSM of another make.

Transmission Help--4th not working
That's what my 810 wagon tachs at.It confirms you have 3.54 gears.ANd my temps at 75MPH are around 200-205 with ambient air temp of 105 degrees.

Flex coupler?
The 17733 is a Super Turbo.My guess is if you go the resonater route,the car will be really quiet. Below is your muffler.Under that is the one i have on the wifes LZ-23 stroker.Quiet untill you put your foot in it and people remark about how good it sounds.Now keep in mind this is a Four banger and your motor will sound even better due to the extra two holes. http://www.jegs.com/i/Dynomax/289/17733/10002/-1?CT=999 http://www.jegs.com/i/Dynomax/289/17732/10002/-1

Flex coupler?
2.5?That's a bit on the large side.What number is on the Walker?Also,Walkers aren't known for "droning".
-
Flex coupler?
O.K.-what is the pipe diameter on the system you are getting?Plenty of "stand alone" mufflers that will keep things "neighbor friendly".I just finished a LZ-23 stroker for the wife and the Walker Super Turbo sounds good with a quiet idle and only gets a tad bit loud when you put your foot in it.

Why do you NEED a resonator?

Starter Interchange
