A major part of hot rodding is sitting around bench racing ideas and talking about what we’re going to do to our cars next. Whether it is suspension and brakes, camshafts and cylinder heads, or intakes and carbs, we’re always debating what is going to be the best for our projects and those of our friends. We talk about stories that we’ve read on websites or in magazines, or things that someone said on the forums, or what we saw them do on our favorite TV shows, and even what the manufacturers have told us over the phone, in ads, or at an event. But which one holds the most water? Who do you listen to when deciding what speed parts to buy? And how do you decide which one is right?
So…Who do you listen to for advice on parts for your hot rod or race car? Friends, websites, magazines, forums, television, manufacturers, or what?
Obviously not the right people . . . .
Someone smarter than me with proven experience building cars.
I read everything I can find in Magazines, online etc. until my head is about to explode. Then I make my decision and usually I still mess it up – but it sure is fun.
The guy with the biggest and shiniest parts collection.
I sometimes listen to the guy covered in rock dust and smelling of SAE 85-140w gear oil . . . but I’ve got a hard time following the advice . . ..
Same here try to read everything i can and talk to the right guys here and local. Sometimes look at other similar cars and copy them.

I usually listen to my wallet, and it usually says to find something for free.
