  1. Ya think? Man, I know you had good intentions, but believe me, borrowing people's truck and/or trailer is a terrible idea. For instance, the head of ColumbusRacing could take your trailer to New Jersey, and bring it back with one less hub and wheel than he left with. :)
  2. Thanks for looking out for us Licking County guys.

    Welcome Nick. GTOs are overrated.
  4. Edit - Ha, you beat me by a minute, nevermind.
  5. I would blame that on the plastic bottle manufacturer. Having said that, thinking back on the 8 years or so doing oil changes everyday out of 1qt bottles, I NEVER saw anything like that come out.
  6. That's the Compression By-pass Valve built into the high dollar AFR heads.

    Interesting.

    That is actually really cool.
  8. Been listening to the track in the distance all day. Sounds like a good turnout there today.
  9. Awesome story. The only April Fool's Day trick that was played on me was that I got asked to go to tthe strip club.... by my sister. (Who promtly said, April Fool's)
  10. I wanted one... researched them, asked around here for suggestions, etc. In the end, I spoke to a contractor about my garage ceiling height (actually, how to raise it), and found that it is very possible to cut sections out of 4 or 5 trusses, and then box them in on 3 sides to add 3' or so for clearance. The ceiling is 10' now, so I could get the S10 or GTO fairly high, but that MOD is a few years down the road. I'm still young enough to lay on the concrete .
  11. It will never be done. I had actually got everything buckled back up and semi-tuned 2 weeks ago. Then, on the test drive, the 15 year old TH350 called it quits. I just got done dropping the old transmission out yesterday. A new-to-me trans, higher stall, new driveshaft, solid mount, and trans cooler/electric fan combo going in this week. 4.56s are taking the place of the 3.50s soon after that. Hoping the 4.56s will get me back into the high 14's.
  12. Welcome. Take it off periodically, clean it well, and wax under it often.
  13. These have 101hp on a very flat dyno curve. I have never taken it to the track, but several reviews in '02 ran 11.0s. http://www.motorcycledaily.com/02october01honda2002919.html http://www.motorcycledaily.com/12july02honda2002919update.html http://www.sportrider.com/bikes/146_0204_919/ Thanks
  14. Yes, I have seen it done on Mopar engines with severe sludge from neglect. My guess is you won't do it; my guess is you will find something that caused your issue soon.
  15. Northern Tool. They have different sizes. http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_6970_200306797_200306797
  16. I question whether anyone calling liter bikes 'yammys', 'suzies', or 'kawies' should ever ride one. Of course that is meant with a fair amount of jab-to-the-side, but come on man.
  17. Buy a set of Eazy-Outs. Drill straight down the middle with increasingly large bits. What is it made out of? It looks soft.
  18. For Christmas, my wife bought my a screen that covers your whole garage door opening. It rolls up out of the way like a truck bedcover. You can unzip it from either side to walk in and out. For me, it is just to keep the inch-and-a-half long horseflies from buzzing me in the hot months. Anyways, GREAT invention... http://www.nurkvinny.com/images/CR/Screen.jpg From Inside http://www.nurkvinny.com/images/CR/Screen3.jpg
  19. Almost 70 today, bump.
  20. Bump, nearing 70 degrees
  21. Can you take a quick video of it, and post it?

    The NWS thing

    I HAVE to be careful about viewing CR at work. "Others" before me had CR blocked at one point in time. The Others can post if they feel like it.

    Interesting. I'll keep my reply to 1 point. Some Mods and Admins on here use part of their lunchtime and their break times keeping this place running, in part so people have a Kitchen to vent their concerns.
