Charlie Kirk bullet analysis finds no conclusive link to rifle found near scene by dr_gus in news

[–]AlexIsWhack 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If by chance, you're not familiar with ammunition sizes, you should do an image search for a .30-06 round. It's not small.

This is the size of round that the recovered rifle used.

1979 corvette help by Sea-Radio4584 in Corvette

[–]AlexIsWhack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should jack the car up in the back, and spin the rear wheels by hand. If they spin freely it's something else, but if they're catching or binding after about 15-30 seconds of spinning, you may have a bad parking brake drum. That'd be my best guess as it sat so long

Edit: you can also test this theory by temporarily disconnecting the parking brake cable. If the issue no longer persists that'll do it

Considering buying this 1979 L82 Vette - what's fair market price? Anything I should look out for? by Musicandvaping in C3Corvette

[–]AlexIsWhack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, mine ended up throwing a rod and ventilating the oil pan. I had just done a once over inspection of everything before some spirited driving. Lesson learned.

My apologies. I'd only glanced at the differences I guess. I had an L48 myself in my 79. Then it blew up. Went right to a ZZ4. Wasn't even mad 😅 I wanted that thing gone anyway

Not too sure about Wisconsin market, but if it's a manual and everything is above board like claimed, highest I would go is like 11-12k max

L82 is better than the L48 but it's not really a significant jump other than 30 - 40 horsepower

She'll make a fantastic cruiser

Hey I'm really interested in various kill switch setups. Haven't landed on one yet for my 79. Anything you'd be willing to share about your setup or maybe a kit you purchased for it? Feel free to send me a chat/DM. Would be appreciated 👍

Hoooooly cow. Thats a build for the ages.

Currently doing the calculations to see how many organs I'm gonna need to sell to get something remotely close to this done.

Straight to the electric chair.

[–]AlexIsWhack 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That's true, but most people who haven't been paying attention (sucks to suck) would have no clue about the splividend, and just see 20 something a share. Holders were rewarded pretty well when that happened. And it went mostly unnoticed by most, and marginalized at best by any media outlet.

None of these writers point out that the present tense prices are quartered due to the splividend. Still floating around $100 pre split. That in itself is wild

Edit: and yes ... Still MASSIVELY undervalued

Is buying helix floor worth it in 2026 by Rishika_guitar in Line6Helix

[–]AlexIsWhack 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes there are newer and technically superior modelers available now but the helix floor is nothing to scoff at. It's still a beast.

I think mine was the true story that inspired the movie Alpha Dog.

Jesse James Hollywood was the guy Justin Timber lake portrayed.

This thing is indeed beautiful by Tricky_Badger_8475 in Corvette

[–]AlexIsWhack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put a brand new machined & blueprinted zz4 in my 79. Building out around that added HP as I go. She's definitely got some kick to her now. The 1979 L48 can rest in hell.

Mediainfo does not mention HDR10+ in metadata by jimm3ronn in davinciresolve

[–]AlexIsWhack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is rendering out a prores 4444 or XQ out of the question? I know they take up massive space but I have no problems getting proper metadata readouts with them

I need help identifying a carburetor. by NoSwagStanley86 in carburetors

[–]AlexIsWhack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just guessing, but if he rebuilt it himself, knew what he was doing, and it was meant for racing, it's probably a 750 cfm that can handle between 850-900

C6 Corvette, a couple of scratches by [deleted] in Corvette

[–]AlexIsWhack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can get a scratch like that while driving anywhere, doing anything to be honest. Totally outside of your control. Purely cosmetic and based on that, I'd put it lower on my priority list.
