As light as the FD will be, you should slip and slide with a powerglide. Both the th350 and th400 will cost some mph and tenths over the powerglide.

 

Don't let your mom tow it away yet. I have a plan, the taco's heart may live on...

Maybe, I may need your help real quick on a front tire.

at least someone will get to use it

 

Now, that's low.

How thorough is Norwalk's tech inspection?

Derek mounted my sticky tires for me this week, so I should be able to make it.

I have a set of 6 Enkei RPM2s I am looking to sell soon.

 

2 17x8s with 225/45/17 Kumho MXs

2 17x9s with 255/40/17 Kumho MXs

2 17x9s with 275/40/17 Nitto drag radials

 

All are in perfect shape, low miles, and come with the proper hub centric rings for the RX7s.

hrm....could be SERIOUS trouble when you get your suspension sorted a bit better. Let me run r-comps and we'll call it a deal

 

Oh, no, not that car. I think with some tires I'll be faster in the V6 car than I was in the V8. My balls grow exponentially behind the wheel of the beater.

 

But a wager should be fun, we will at least do it for dinner and drinks.

fastest lap at the first Nelson Funday in May, loser repays the winner's entry fee?

 

 

I kid, I kid. Sorry, I'm bored today.

 

I may have to try that this spring in the black car

The one in your first link would not cut it, especially in a garage with any drafts. I would look for another Reznor, or have yours serviced, or pick up a regular residential forced air gas furnace. There are a lot of people stepping up to high efficiency furnaces in their homes and discarding there still working old units. That is where I got mine, 80,000btu heats up my 720sq.ft. garage quickly and for the cheap. If you do go with a house furnace make sure to keep the return air off the ground at least 12", maybe more check you local codes, to prevent gas fumes from entering it, and vent it to the outside with double wall flue pipe.

thats not fair matt, josh lets fab some mounts we are pulling my motor.

 

Still not scared

scared???

 

Never! Someone we both know mentioned something along the lines of "There's a Yate's head over there, a block in the back, and some pistons we can make work."

 

 

Josh, even the color is perfect!

24 hours of LeMons entry!

Marc, you may want to edit the thread title. I'm sure there are a lot of people on CR that might not be familiar with the legend of "The Cark". A title with the name ElCamino may help get the word out better.

Specify:

-What kind of steel

-How tight the break is

-What you use

 

Well Eric, maybe you will believe me. It is done everyday and it is a standard practice.

 

To answer your questions,

Almost any kind of steel except for cheap Chinese brittle crap, also stainless steel and 2 and 3 thousand series aluminum alloys.

 

Roughly a 1/8" diameter inside radius, depends on material and dies used.

 

Press brake. Bottom die opening to be 8 times material thickness, in this case 2"

Are they 5x114.3?

 

For a Nissan Maxima, so yes.

 

If you don't want them Brian, I will take them.

matt just like the record you were bea by 1hr.

 

 

Curses, foiled again You haven't seen the last of me

 

Another little tidbit on the CannonBall, Brock Yates, the organizer of said race and editor of Car and Driver magazine, won the 1971 race along with co-driver Dan Gurney in a Ferrari Daytona with a time of 35 hours 54 minutes. Dan Gurney deserves most of the credit.

The long standing record of 32 hours 7 minutes from NYC to L.A. is no longer.
