Couldn't a tensioner make up for that kind of tiny difference in timing chain length? I really have no experience with any of it, but honestly, wouldn't GM "not recommend" most everything else he's done to the motor??

Okay, I don't think this thread is about the carbon credit/government incentive portion of "going green". It's pretty much undeniable fact that when you install things like fluorescent light bulbs, instantaneous water heaters, digital thermostats, room occupancy sensors, etc. etc. etc. that your initial investment is fairly quickly returned through lower energy consumption and longer functional product life. The same can be said for geothermal heating ( cool stuff ) and other things. I don't think many people deny that some of the gov't regulations and incentives regarding "going green" are a little sketchy, but there are many obvious easy and effective ways the average joe can save some money and energy around the house.

I will go on record as saying I absolutely despise hybrids, for at least 5 separate and distinct reasons. One being the people who drive/buy them. Please don't talk about hybrids. Interesting note however: I almost got ran over by a prius backing up in a parking lot once, couldn't hear it at all.

Saying this is like saying purchasing a $2,000 machine to print your own money is a crock of shit. Srsly, srsly. Although you did say "half" of the stuff, so I guess it's only half like saying that.

Ah, okay I may have. I don't know why my post above doubled when I edited it, but it sure did. WTF m8s

some kid in one of my classes used to quote that shit all the time last year. It was funny for a while, until he started using "cookin' by the book" and "you know you can't be lazy" in normal conversation. That song will stay in your head for waaaaaay too long. The girl has pink hair - her cake is obviously 15% meth.

The refrigerant in my car is illegal and blows nice icy cold air, I have no catalytic converter, and the truck I drive when I'm not driving my car gets 14mpg...... Seriously though, I intern with a company that does quite a bit of work to help facilities save energy and pollute less, specifically regarding hvac. At home we use fluorescents where possible and do little else, although we do have a digital thermostat installed, to turn it back when nobody's home....

Mike, did you go to Pickerington H.S.? I graduated from what is now Central....just wondering if I know you/know of you.... P.S.- enjoy your race

I believe that front end is called the "shogun".....and yes, it looks that bad on all cars. Now, if you were to remove a dragon's face and put that on it, then you'd have something.

His better is better than my better.

Hey, welcome from Pickerington also. I have the white Stealth in my sig ( it's loud ), and my dad has a red 06 charger R/T ( only semi-loud ), so you might see either around. My dad's closing in on 45k in his, and I thought that was a lot.....80k is an achievement! Either way, welcome and enjoy your stay.

right by the ogre's house? who?

I too have spotted the ram on neil, and to be honest I like it the best of the cars there. Not that it IS the best, but i would most want it .

how much?

Hell yea, i just looked on the bmxmuseum.com site, and this is my damn bike!! http://www.bmxmuseum.com/bikes/schwinn/8175 Mine has sure as hell been ridden, but it's in REALLY good shape. It has non-factory grips and seat, however I think I still have the seat.....either way, cool to see.

Pics? V6 or V8? etc.

Alert! Alert! Alert! Those front turn signal lenses are off a 91-93 Dodge Stealth ES.... true story! Edit: Shitty car is shitty.

I've got an old ( maybe 7 or 8 years ) Schwinn SuperStock 3, from back before Schwinn got shitty. It's in really good shape, but I haven't ridden it in a couple years. It's got the factory magnesium wheels, and anodized red trim..... Are these worth anything now?

Welcome to the site, don't mind the initial hard time you receive .

I don't get why people need to spaceshipize their civics. I would have much more respect for the damn thing if it was black, w/ the carbon fiber parts, stock bumpers, with a mean little engine. At least make it a little sleeper... P.S. - there's no place like home.

I like the color.

Welcome, I suppose. However, please tell me what makes your 96 honda civic worth going to kansas to buy? Just seems a little crazy...

I was not, unfortunately my wheel bearing is now louder than my exhaust, so it was garaged all weekend.

I have an idea I'd like to patent, is this what I would be looking for also? My thought basically involves incorporating an existing technology into another, in a way never done before. I can't do it, but it's never been done, so I'd like rights to it . Anybody know how do go about doing so?
