    Saturday 7/1

    I don't think he was talking specifically to you... just making a comment.
  3. The older legacy motors 98-2000 had head gasket issues. You might want to search around for info on that.... Another common bitch is piston slap when the engine is cold.
  4. Nice! That just burnt over an hour!

    Free bump for a nice car
  7. Me? Yeah... I went over and talked to the kid with the Red/White 69. Who where you?
  8. I'm running an AP (stage 2) right now on my LGT. (Same motor as your STI, but smaller VF40 turbocharger). The stock target boost on my car was 13.5 psi.... but I'm running around 17 right now with the Cobb Stg 2 91 oct. map. Drop me a PM if you need any help or have questions.

  9. Congrats! I'm in GC also..... I'd love to see the new ride sometime!
  10. LOL! I saw that car there.... and I think I saw his first burnout. I heard later that he destroyed the clutch... but I missed it.
  11. Some more...... http://www.hometown.aol.com/aasearles/SRT7.jpg http://www.hometown.aol.com/aasearles/SRT8.jpg http://www.hometown.aol.com/aasearles/SRT9.jpg http://www.hometown.aol.com/aasearles/SRT10.jpg http://www.hometown.aol.com/aasearles/SRT11.jpg http://img.betchuk.com/thumbnails.php?album=24
  12. I went to the Mopar Nationals evening event last Saturday night. Every year, the Mopar guys stay on Brice road and every year it gets rowdy. They have burn out boxes in the hotel parking lot, in restaurant parking lots... and last night... in the parking lot of a bank. It is really crazy stuff. I never bring any of my cars out due to the number of drunk people and reckless driving... but I like to go watch the chaos. Anyhow... last night... a kid pulls into the waterbox with his BRAND NEW SRT-4. It was that Copper/Orange metallic color... pretty nice looking car. I think they call it Orange Blast or something like that. He pulls the E-brake to hold the car.... then brings up the revs and dumps the clutch.....the motor is just screaming, but the passenger side tire isn't turning. I'm thinking to myself that these things all have positraction and somthing isn't right.... it has to be the clutch slipping. By the time I process what is happening (a few seconds) and I get moving towards the car yelling STOP STOP STOP... it's too late. The clutch and pressureplate explode into 8-10 pieces and scrapnel files out from under the car... along with sparks, oil, and antifreeze. Luckily no one got hurt. I got to survey the damage afterward... and it wasn't pretty. A section of the pressure plate shattered the bellhousing, came out and hit the intake manifold, CRACKING IT IN HALF, then hitting the radiator and crushing it. At a bare minimum the kid is going to need a new transmission, bellhousing, flywheel, clutch, pressure plate, linkage, intake manifold, throttle body, radiator, condenser, A/C lines, and engine wiring harness. This is the stuff that I saw that was ruined. There is probably going to be more.... Here are a few photos from a fellow LGT'er.... A couple pics: Oh... and in the 3rd picture... you can see me on the far right... in the black shirt. http://www.hometown.aol.com/aasearles/SRT1.jpg http://www.hometown.aol.com/aasearles/SRT2.jpg http://www.hometown.aol.com/aasearles/SRT3.jpg http://www.hometown.aol.com/aasearles/SRT4.jpg http://www.hometown.aol.com/aasearles/SRT5.jpg http://www.hometown.aol.com/aasearles/SRT6.jpg

  15. Hey Ben.... in the late 60's, early 70's... GM engines were orange (red-orange) from the factory. In the 70's they switched to GM Blue.
