Man, that's just wrong. Posting about a new mod without pictures? My digital camera ($50 off Woot) is part of the tool collection in my garage. I want to see some pics. Don't tease like that. :laugh: -Muzzy

Your family is in my prayers. God Bless -Muzzy

I never smoked, but I used to chew tobacco. I did it for two years until my dentist said I was going to start losing teeth if I did not quit. My gums started to recede. I quit and haven't had any in 18 years. Here is a good way to quit smoking. Every time you get the urge, have some kick...

That is great. I am just bummed that I did not think of it first. We could call it the first zero emission gas engine. -Muzzy

My tips: -Don't reuse the factory head bolts. Buy a set of ARP bolts, or I would go with a head stud (truer torque over a bolt). -Chase the threads in the block with the appropriate tap. -Make sure the block and the heads (gasket surface) are completely clean and free of any oil or...

I just took it for a short drive last night, but is feels like it pulls harder in the mid to upper RPM range. I will be driving it to work today, so I will give a better report later. I have been debating pulling off the intake and polishing it. I am not sure if I want to invest that much...

I got my Roe TB today and installed it. One thing I did different from Roe's instructions was I heated the TB in the toaster oven like he recommended, but I also put the bearing in my deep freezer. They had a pretty good view of a couple corn fed ribeyes. After about 30 minutes, those...

Looks like this may be one even though it doesn't say SRT-10 CE HERE is another one.

I sent you a PM. Thanks -Muzzy

That is awesome. I would like a high-res version. Thanks -Muzzy

GB on TB bearing? :laugh:

Yes, but we all survived to tell about it. I did some crazy stuff as a youth. I also knew my limits and that of what I was driving. That's the difference between us and those that are feeding the worms. -Muzzy

That is what I call "natural selection". Self elimination from the gene pool. :evil: -Muzzy

Plenty of hog farms around here. They eat bones and all. Nothing left once them piggies are done. If you find out who, I am sure us good old boys will figure out a way to take care of them. -Muzzy

I do not find it unusual for there to be no cam bearings. Most aluminum head four banger's do not have bearings for overhead cams. It is pretty rare to see a cam journal or housing get eaten up. If it does happen it could be either debris in the oil or oil starvation causing metal to metal...

A glaze contains no abrasives. It is used to fill in micro scratches for a deep shine. Body shops often will use a glaze on fresh paint to help protect it while letting it "breath" until it cures. I use 3M products exclusively. I use their Perfect It II Glaze and then wax over it. It...

Jay Leno's garage? -Muzzy

As far as supercharging vs. turbocharging…I have played with both. In my opinion and experience, turbo chargers are one of the easiest ways to make power. Getting more boost is as easy as holding the wastegate closed a little longer (controller by actuator and boost controller)...

Turbo charging anything requires some thought. I have to give some kudos to those vendors that are brave enough to make a kit. Any mod has a consequence if you are not careful. As far as our trucks...I would not push boost into any engine without beefing up the internals. Our trucks have a...
