  1. I'm going to buy a moped. And start dating a fat girl. Edit: wait, would a moped with me and a fat girl on the back get worse mileage then my truck?
  2. Call the shop and ask for Kelly (the number I posted)- the orion stuff he is just trying to move, you basically couldnt buy it cheaper anywhere else.
  3. Different muffler. The one I posted is not a bullet muffler, its a 6" welded can muffler with 4" inlet/outlet.
  4. shitsticks. It expired today I think - it should be back up tomorrow. We have a gallery of some of the installs Kelly has done - he has been doing it for 15 years - something like you posted is no problem at all. (740) 362-0694
  5. We have all sorts of stuff in stock/cheap. We have some orion stuff we are trying to get rid of. We do custom enclosures too. www.creativecustomchoppers.com
  6. I'm fucked. Thats pretty much all there is to that.
  7. Dynomax has a 4" round welded muffler, its a 4" in/out, 6" round and 16" long - though its not stainless. They work really well and are straight through.... jegs PN is 289-17225
  8. The only way to learn is to do something wrong once. Apparently you are learning, since you managed to make 30 less rwhp then me in the same car on the same dyno 4 years later
  9. Greg has the mental capacity of a 5 year old. It really makes me sad
  10. If its the grommet on the gas tank you HAVE to drop the tank, the fuel fill neck goes a good 6" into the tank, the only way to get it out is to drop the tank. You MIGHT be able to unbolt the fuel filler neck from the car, rotate it and pull it out, I've never tried because its easier to just drop the tank...
  11. Its just a fuel filler neck grommet, it is a big rubber grommet that pushes into the gas tank (you have to drop the tank to replace it). Its like $32 from a ford dealer.
  12. you killed he cougar! It made like 24x a few years ago. Nice numbers mang, go suprise some people.

    MP3 downloads

    www.allofmp3.com Legal, cheap, and great quality (CD quality rips for most stuff)
  14. It costs me $15 a day to get to work and back. Thats if I stay "nice" to the throttle.
  15. I hit a man standing BEHIND me with the golf ball last year. Twas grand. I'm down!
  16. I'm 100% aware of how a torque converter works. I am reffering to ELECTRIC power. as I said EARLIER, of course you need engine power to move. I never said it would be FULLY functional without 12v, I said it would move forwards and backwards. Reading comprehension is key, right before your post I posted,
  17. You can remove power 100% from a E40d and it will have a forward and reverse gear. The EPC is WIDE OPEN with no power, that means FULL line pressure. Explain that one. The converter is all mechanical save for the converter clutch. The pump is mechanical. Pressure is a function of the pump and the EPC. If the EPC doesnt have power it remains wide open so it is going to have as much line pressure as the pump can provide all the time (which will destroy the pump in short order).
  18. ELECTRIC power to the transmission. Of course the engine would have to be running. Dont ask ME why, because I dont know, its a DOT thing. E40d's use a band in manual 1st and second AS WELL AS the clutches, in D they do not (thye just use clutches). AODE's engage the OD band in manual second (as well as the clutches). On my last E40d that I killed it would slip horribly in 2nd gear in D, in manual second it wouldnt, and this is why.
  19. Yeah, I was talking specifically about his transmission. I'm sure other companaies do it differently, but they just have to be able to move the car forward and reverse with no power to the tranny. Like my truck for instance, I have JUST manual second with no power (that I can shift into). When both shift solenoids dont have power it is in first gear and the EPC is wide open (full line pressure) so I can take off in first gear and shift into second gear. If I where to try and push it into drive it would go back into first (but nothing bad would happen because the coast clutch would be disengaged).
  20. Have you ever worked on a AODE, 4R70W, or E40d? To clarify - on ELECTRONIC Automatics.
  21. Manual first and second engage a band as well as the clutch packs, they do this to meet DOT standards. On cars with automatic transmissions DOT requires that with no power you still have working forward and reverse gears (hense manual gears). When you put it in D it is just engaging the clutch packs.
  22. If he doesnt get it I'll pick it up ASAP.
