The Crusades were a defensive campaign to drive invading Muslims from southern Europe, if I recall correctly. I could be wrong, but 'Muslim hordes' did plenty of invading through the ages, and their religious viewpoint was "convert or kill". Yes, many have died in the name of Christianity, but it's far from being the only one.

This sucks! Hope it comes home soon, in good condition.

Foxbodys are kinda tail-happy with decent power, and the rain aggravated this, I'm sure. Glad everyone's ok. Like Derek said, check your shocks. Crappy shocks + uneven pavement + torque = filling your shorts with yesterday's lunch.

Looks solid! The 350 has decent torque, but a 425 or 455 would be a night-and-day difference in power. My friend & I transplanted a 425 "Super Rocket" high-compression motor (out of a '65 Starfire) into his '69 Cutlass hardtop. Damn thing wouldn't hook up on street rubber...

Wow, this is new! Hey, have you seen the "badger, badger, badger, badger, MUSHROOM MUSHROOM" flash yet?

Been a while, life's been crazy. Hope everyone has been alright, and their projects are done or are moving along well. The Tempo is running, though with the old M62 setup. Putting the M90 on will require a custom rad and new intercooler, and that coin was already spoken for. Seems tight & solid, and throttle response is great. One little 'bug', though. At anything more than 3/4 throttle (about 3, 3.5 psi) it 'chokes out' and loses power. Doesn't seem to be leaning out according to the A/F meter. Only differences this year are the fresh motor, header, 2.5" exhaust with no cat & a turbo muffler, and EGR disconnected. I've also unplugged the IAC because the idle would surge from 900 to 1900 on a whim. Should I try a check valve to isolate the MAP sensor from boost? This fucker feels strong (compared to last year), pulls decent even in 5th. Can't wait to get it running right, strengthen the motor mounts, and get it to the track. After I get a few runs in, a bigger crank pulley is going on. I know I can get more pressure out of this blower, but first I want to see how much difference the header, cam, and short-ratio trans is going to make.

Mother. Fucking. Werd.

What a rush! Damn!

Sweet! When do the mods begin?

Yea, the automakers beat the "solid grille" trend to death, didn't they? http://img73.imageshack.us/img73/9109/3rdgenyl4.jpg

I lol, as beer spews from my nose... Good one!

Yea, all the fuckin' n00bs need to stf....nevermind.

That car is sweet! You put a nice ride together, very clean. Too bad the guy wants an arm and a leg for it, but it might help keep inexperienced drivers out of it.

<----same name, I haven't posted there in a while though. And yourself?

Glad nobody got hurt, good luck getting 'er fixed. I've done some supid shit too, but I've lucked out! Try 112 mph on a snow-covered autobahn. Went almost 300 miles like that, the rented Bimmer was actually pretty solid on the white stuff. Passed a couple nasty wrecks, but kept cruising, 3 young, indestructible soldiers with not a care. If only our Interstates were half as good as those autobahns...

Forget a car or pickup rearend; He'd better go to something out of a Mack or a Pete. A bigass Rockwell or Eaton should do it. Disregard the Mack; toploader Rockwells bring the Center-of-gravity up too much.

Funny thing is, many Conspiracy nuts will accuse Bush of masterminding 9/11, then in the next breath refer to him as a 'moron'. Who is the moron? The guy making ridiculous and unfounded claims on a blog, posting from his mom's basement in Omaha, or the man holding the world's most powerful office?

21 complaints? How many of them had ghetto-rigged amplifier wiring? j/k I know at least one ClubGP member had his go up in flames. Wish they had the cause narrowed down, give me something to go on. Maybe I should decrease the deductible on my '01...

"America Rock"/"Schoolhouse Rock" ftw I could sing it all right now!

Political Correctness and Liberal agendas are killing our country. This illustrates it perfectly. Good post/thread!

10.29 Cool! The rear cushion? The tape holding it in is the key.

Got everything but the diagram in under 15...no hints. Dammit, I've clicked on everything I can see...

Catera on meth?

The Cavy looks, predictably, hideous. The Bimmer looks good, but that air dam seems out of place. Did it come off of an M?
