  1. He'll probably change their minds.
  2. After watching hours of Diesel Creek on the tube I've come to believe that any diesel will fire. He's dragging out crap that's been sitting in the woods for 20 years, bleeding the fuel system and they run.
  3. I wonder if some of the HP differences in those years can be attributed to the way HP is measured in the different years. I can recall back in 1993 the Mustang went from 225hp in 92 to 205hp in 93 with no changes other than how it was measured.
  4. It takes quite a bit of energy. Not only are you heating the cabin, but the battery module is also heated.
  5. I doubt a 30 minute blackout will really impact your EV experience very much. As I was out an about in the frigid weather, I don't remember seeing many vehicles out at all. Fun fact: Gas and diesel pumps also tend to run on electricity these days and the guy with a gas burner sitting at the station with an empty tank is in just as bad of shape as the guy with an EV and no battery left.
  6. I'm gonna skip it tonight. Might watch the kids play in the dust tomorrow.
  7. So leftists were hypocrites in the 70's too? That's certainly a surprise.
  8. He has a HANS system, though not HANS brand. The yellow ropes you see on either side of the helmet go to the release catches for the HANS.
  9. Sounds like pin fit or connector issue. Check diagram, but I think it's a solid conductor from the sensor terminal to the ECU.
  10. That big feller needs some real estate to get air!
  11. I watched a few videos on geothermal last night. Talk about misinformation. Some of these guys just do not understand heat transfer at all.
  12. Can shorten, cannot balance. What kind of issues? I just took in a car this weekend that is getting a gear (and everything else in the rear) and some other things. Once it's done I could look at the Cougar.
  13. I'm not talking all out drag engine. I'm talking a pump gas daily driver type engine. 10:1 compression. Roller cam under .600 lift (durability, longevity), and "modern" heads (still MAx Wedge design from the 60's). That crate motor for 10K would be nice too. As long as it's under 11:1 you can keep 93 octane pump.
  14. Unless you already have a hyd roller cam, i'd sell the one you have now and get a good HR cam to match the heads. I'd keep the 727 unless you can find a manual that can handle the power. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/tfs-61617801-c01/make/chrysler https://www.summitracing.com/parts/wis-pts531a3/make/chrysler https://www.summitracing.com/parts/tfs-61602003/make/chrysler
  15. I'd do a built 440 if it were mine. Engine Masters did an episode with a .030 over 10:1 440 with a fairly small hyd roller and the TFS 270 heads. That motor made like 590hp. I have to believe that would be a riot in that truck.
  16. What if that pipe lands on a joist? Can you jog it over to get in between?
  17. SO for an 8hr drive it would mean instead of driving 65mph, it would be like driving 47mph. That wouldn't drive me insane...
  18. After coming through a study about AEB from AAA today I thought of something. In their conclusions and recommendations, they didn't ever mention maybe trying to pay more attention. Instead they ask why auto mfg's aren't working harder to get cars to where they will detect any car in any situation and avoid the crash. Made me think, if we could somehow figure out a way to keep cell phones out of the cabin, and gadgets off the screen then with all the new safety features and attentive driver's we'd have 200x fewer accidents. My next great invention: Create a "key" that will require your phone to plugged in the trunk. You'll arrive with a charged phone and your hands and eyes will be free to drive!
  19. She'll be terrible for AZ. Two weeks ago I was in AZ for work. I went to dinner and stumbled upon a bike cruise in. Talked to some people there and brought up their Gov election. I can say that the bikers I talked to do not like Hobbs. Interesting note, there was a contingent of Hell's Angels present. Maybe 5-6 of them.
  20. What are we even talking about? He's a felon, with a gun, being served. You think for a second he wouldn't turn that pistol on the human police after he capped the K9? 100% good shoot.
  21. Abusing an animal was never in question. Killing a Police Officer was.
  22. So you are equating a stray dog to a Police Dog?
