Man, my dad is kinda stupid on stuff like this. He bought me two and one for all of his cars. The only car it actually did help was his 92 lincoln with a 4.6 in it. He actually picked up some mpg. My 93 z28, it did nothing to and it dont add any power either. Unless you have a 4.6 ford engine and want to pick up 2mpg, dont waste your money. I also put it in my 92 ranger and it didnt help either. I think they are a bunch of BS.

After you get that "tornado" thing, then buying one of their fuel line magnets would be a nice finishing touch. I can't tell you how much better your car will perform once you line up all the molecules in the gas. Ha, ha...yeah right!

I never thought to look for any giant part stores besides the usual autozone or napa. I usually order my stuff through my local muscle shop Modern Muscle or from Summit. Having been to the store is it a decent place to shop for parts? their website kinda makes me think not seeing as how their website says EVERYTHING fit on my 1994 camaro lol but obviously if theyve been around since 1915 they must have something goin good for em.
ill be sure to get one of these fuel line magnets, they seem pretty legit. Might pick up some tin foil too and cover my car in it, seeing as how tin foil reflects the sun and solar deflection makes your car not only gain 20 horses GUARANTEED but also gives it a cool space-ship-ey look to it. lol
btw Camaro 69, what track do you go to? i know theres rt 66 then another in geneva, i head rt 66 is pretty pricey and has a ton of safety restrictions though..

It's pretty much a warehouse store. After looking through the catalog, I was unimpressed with the store. But I was sort of expecting to walk into a "Warehouse 13" type of place. They have some items out on shelves, but it's actually smaller than going into an AutoZone. If you're looking for something, you either ask for it at the counter or find it in the catalog, then take it home with you (unless it's a special order item).

Many years ago I was assigned to work in Chicago. Having plenty of time to waste, I went to visit the JC Whitney store. Not much of a place, and if remember correctly it had a chewed up wooden floor. I used to order weird parts from them on occasion. Sometime in the 70's they declared bankruptcy and never got my order or a refund, even though they remained in business.

Pete, that was the Warshawsky store you were in then. Back when they had two companies, Whitney was strictly mail order. From what I remember, Whitney didn't go into bankruptcy, only Warshawsky did. I think they pulled back out of the hole, but that was the start of them having to lean out and later dissolved the Warshawsky company. And if you do an online search for Warshawsky & Co, JC Whitney will pop up.
By the way, about 4 years ago I bought from them a Heart Throb brand full length 3" exhaust system with welded chambered mufflers (can't tell them from Flowmasters) for my Camaro. Pipes exit between the leaf springs and the fenders, and the system fit! Cost was a not too shabby $300.
