Cordell

Yeah i drove my last one until the cab mounts rotted off, I just want one with floors and cab mounts that are intact. The cab corner rust and rotten fenders, bed sides don't bother me.

Got some fresh race pads on order, should be here tomarow, car is almost ready. Getting excited.

If you mean the truck you cut the back of the cab out I thought about it, but really wouldn't want an un-useable truck.

Any would do, I like the pre-93 trucks, but I really don't care. I really just prefer a manual trans and 2WD.

I've decided that I really want a small truck again (or at least a winter beater), and I'd really like to just find one with a decent body (some rust is fine). I would love a manual, 2WD, but would consider anything for the right price. I would like to get it as cheap as possible so I'd love to find something that doesn't run, needs work, something like that. Prefer S10 since I'm already very familiar, but other small trucks and cars would be considered. Thanks for helping, I'll keep cruising Craigslist in the meantime.

I'm game for that if its raining.

Bet you don't realize that Wayne (xbomb) is one of the guys who gets Marion todo that.

Blah, have a good time, maybe I catch you Sawmill if it isn't raining.

You may PM POS Vette on here, he has one and loves it. Overall really nice cars.

Should actually make it this time. Work has owned me lately.

Wow classic style CR thread is classic. One topic to another without missing a beat. I ask my wife about everything, she's my accountant, of course if that meant I'd stop getting to do things I want to do she'd stop getting my business.

Anytime electricity is generated it comes out as AC, why do you think alternators have regulators and diode packs in them? The big electric motors in hybrids have the voltage and diode controls seperate from the motor and is why they run on alternating current. Keep in mind that the motor is also the generator when it isn't driving the vehicle.

Must not need it gone very bad you didn't even respond to my PM.

You got a little back story to this series of questions? Most cars run better with more timing under vacuum, and of course more then base timing when under load. If you look at it as a table in a computer controled car it isn't much different as this provides good effiency and even power output from the engine. A computer doesn't really have a base timing, just a seperate table for cranking advance, and then the main tables for when the engine is running.

QFT. and bookmarked for future reference.

How big of a POS has yet to be seen, but I would not want one outside of warranty. I have had both the 3.6 and 2.4 engines apart. They both have shitty valvetrain components, and GM's FWD 6 speed auto doesn't last long either. So like I said if I was going to keep it only as long as it's covered by GM's 5 year/100k mile warranty.

All GM's hybrid stuff is orange, and varies in voltage between vehicles. For instance a Tahoe hybrid uses 12 volts, 42 volts, and has a 300 volt motor, the A/C compressor runs on 300 volts, the power steering runs on 42 volts, and there are multiple control modules. I'm not trained on the Volt so I can't speak for it.

It's rain or shine.

Congrats Gary, but I don't envy you, I'm so glad mine is 11 its so much easier.

So does it boost spike a little there about 3500? Looks really good though, makes me think about considering a Ford for my next truck. Pretty cool what you can get.

Sorry i had to do it for my own amusement. You know if you load them into photobucket there is a simple picture editor you can do yourself. Thats all i do, but I'm sure one of these photogs will play with it for you. Thanks for being a sport.

I need to come see this.
