  4. I'm assuming since you have other cars you dont need a/c and the such, so do yourself a favor and gut that bitch[/color]. [/color][/b]Seeing as your car t tops and. What not, it would take a little more work, but I got my car down to 3000 and it still looks like I have a full interior. After talking to a couple of guys from comp, I told them just running the car off the converter, I wanted it in the mid 11's . After they did some reaserch or whatever they do, they gave me a cam recomendation, that let's just say isn't nearly as big as I was figuring I would need. That weight makes a difference.

     

    Looks like he has a real nice car. I know I wouldn't give up my a/c or radio or any comforts for the sake of going faster. Most accessories only eat about 35 HP combined. The a/c only eats up lots of power when it is running. So to compensate for the loss he can run a 175 shot instead of a 150 and turn the a/c off till the ass kicking is finished. Nothing like stomping the mud out of some guy sweating his ass off while you're rolling down the road rocking some John Denver with your frosty windows.

  5. I have an '09 international with an I9 engine. The engine starts fine and runs great when it is cold. After it has run for a while and everything has come up to temp, if you shut off the engine and let it sit for about 5 minutes, you have to crank the hell out of it to get it to refire. After it fires back up it runs great. I have already replaced the high pressure oil pump, the IPR and the IPS and rebuilt the HPOM. Next I will have to try rebuilding the injectors. I don't really want to do all of that though. Anybody here a diesel mech that may have run into the same problem?
  6. Craftsman has become such garbage.

     

    Depends on what you are going to be doing with it. My dad has a Craftsmen box full of Craftsmen stuff and it all works very well for him. I don't use much Craftsmen stuff at work because it doesn't hold up to steady abuse. Either way it's still good to find deals on tools.

  7. This is a prolblem most if not all professionals face regardless of what that profession may be. I know I have absolutly no problem helping my close frinds and family out. As a matter of facr, I get almost offended when I here thy went somewhere and paid to have work done. With that being said, people I consider "work budies/friends" I won't even bother with thier BDSR's (Beat Down Shit Rides) for less than $100.00 The way I see it, I have paid a lot of money for what I know and even more money for the tools to do it. Whn people here you're a mechanic a lot will say "oh yea that's great, my makes this sound. What's wrong with it and how much do you want to fix it". Like they can even come close to mimmicking the actual noise with thier mouth, and they usually want to fix it for a happy meal or something. Oh well, Thank you Scott for giving us a good reason to vent here.
  8. Coming from a guy who's joke makes no sense... I'm pretty sure my little niece has better come backs than you and she can't even talk. If your going to be this annoying because your wanna be butt buddy is gone, please do the world a favor and just go walk off a high cliff.

     

    This is no place to bring my little girl into. And besides, she can say a few words. The best word she knows how to say would be perfect for some of the people here...HUSH!!!!:lolguy:
