    RIP TransAm

    Ouch. No more grimmace At least you are ok
  5. 2000 more miles and a better throttle body......
  6. @ idle, an 70 amp wont keep up with that kind of load. It is only making 20-30 amps at low RPM. Smaller pulley to spin fater, or difrent regulator setup, or larger alternator. Check to see what the ouput is rated at. (60 amp @ x,xxx RPM @ xx*F)
  7. Holy hugeness Batman. damn wireles at this hotel is the suck.
  8. The 1 wire units have the regulator built in. 3 wire units have an external regulator. The 2 terminals go to the field coil. The jumper provides +12V to the field coil, and the internal regulator adjusts how much resistance is on the ground of the coil so it can vary the strength of the magnetic field. Just a matter of getting an external regulator and diabling the internal one. Question: why go to 3 wires? Just 2 more wires to route and potentially break or cenections that can corode/come loose.
  9. The larger tubes in the header probably do not maintain enough velocity at the lower RPMs to scavenge the exhaust out of the cyl, so part of it may be flowing back into the intake during the overlap of the cam. Once you have some RPMs, there is enough velocity to help draw out the exhaust so it wont backflow. Should not be a backpressure problem.
  10. Get the the drums turned while you are at it. The stoppin on one point indicates a high spot on the drum. Just a minor warp.
  11. I have one you can borrow. I am in cleveland for the weekend though.
  12. And we continue to pay it. Does this mean we where ripping off the oil companies for the first 100 years? Anyways, about .85 when I started driving on the roads in 96. I think maybe .75 when I started driving tractors in 88.

  14. Driving through naples? Are you kidding? The ice cicles finally fell off my nuts, it like a heat wave up here.

  19. Marine Corps Rules: 1. Be courteous to everyone, friendly to no one. 2. Decide to be aggressive enough, quickly enough. 3. Have a plan. 4.

Do not attend a gunfight with a handgun whose caliber does not start with a "4." 7. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap. Life is expensive. 8. Move away from your attacker. Distance is your friend. (Lateral & diagonal preferred.) 9. Use cover or concealment as much as possible. 10. Flank your adversary when possible. Protect yours. 11. Always cheat; always win.
