  1. I thought 19# were yellow...like mine.
  2. AOD ya twit, the cougar! tongue.gif
  3. cuz I'm realy wantinf to hear simple fix for OD being "un'there". OD engages, but either not fully, or all the friction material is gone and it just slips. some one tell me i dont need to fix it.
  4. Heat changes things. I wouldn't trust something that important to a clamp. Coming to applebees? Lemme look at it, I a bit fuzzy on what ya mean. You can join hardlines though, if dats what you speak tongue.gif

    Exhaust

    I should be able to help ya out, real cheap cuz I'm a sucker for hard luck cases tongue.gif If you replace the system, try NAPA, they sell OE replacement systems pretty cheap, and the fit right up in the car. lemme know if ya need some quick welding.
  6. I bow to you sir welder tongue.gif
  7. Ha, he can claim, I AM! tongue.gif I can weld it if it's mild steel. Still dragging my ass on converting to gas. If it's mild steel bring here, or to a meet, I'll do it for $5.
  8. Next time ya see me, ask for my cable. you can keep it. Its 13' long I think, should take 1500-2000 lbs
  9. true, but you got hte wrong motor. Those were used alot and for many years, but so were the traditional rotaries, AKA Doritos. YOu'll find most of the highest reving engines were developed for aircraft, or rely on parts develpoed for said planes.
  10. What clutch Changed my tranny pan gasket tonight, and much to my shegrin, the magne mounde inthe pan was not dusted, not coated, but CAKED over with a very fine metal dust. Whould this be whats left of my clutch bands? friday night, I couldt get up a hill, while spinning my tire's at 30mph and moving at 2mph, my leak worsend and my tranny whent dry, and my 2nd gear slipped baaaaadd, smoked bad. My trannies days are numbered.
  11. LOl, way to comapre apples to cast iron oranges tongue.gif I've heard of bone stock NA piston engines not lasting past 50K And, there are high power N/A rotaries out there, some aproacing 500. The way a roatry is designed, it just loves boost, it could proobably run on compressed air alone. Ok Jason, you're right, there are 2 sides firing at once. But is a 600 hp 2.6 any less impressive? tongue.gif
  12. Cuz I think I'm missing something. I'm living under the imperssion that the Horsepower per liter ratio is the measure of how much work you're making an engine do, how much stress you're putting it through. Now, somethng that I don't get. 1.3 liter, 600 hp, there's more then 1 or two or 10 out there, that's 461 hp per liter. Trouble is, things tend to break on those reputedly fragile rotaries. The slightest little fuel or timing mistake causes them to pop, even the little 300-400 hp ones. But thats still 230-300 hp/L. Now, first off, find a street driven, highway lovin' 1300-2200hp small block V8. Once you've found one, run it a little lean under boost, and tell me what happens? Same damn thing. So, why are Rotaries crap?
  13. me too, but I'm cooler tongue.gif
  14. hey! he's back! As for Passens reputation, I think it may have something to do with a certain high profile car, getting severly f'ked up, because of a rediculous mistake, and the owner being a memeber of a certain local website with a member count approaching 2000 sidecar9, what do you do at passen? And, whats your name? Better then people calling you sidecar tongue.gif
  15. something comes to mind: cheap fast reliabel you can only pick 2
  16. Or, consider that an investment. Buy it up and sit one it for a decade or two.
  17. I'll answer with a riddle, ask yourself: How can I modify the exhaust, and intake all at once? There is your answer, young paduon tongue.gif

    Turbo

    beter not let chris catch you asking that tongue.gif Seriously though, space will be a serious issue, you could always cut holes in the hood and just stick them out into space tongue.gif hmmm, hey, have tou considered a big single, mount it just over the tranny, where you front bank exhaust crossover goes. Custom headers, and you would have a damn good place for one.
