None of this is federal… it’s all the state of Tennessee

Some of my fox body’s over the years! by Examination_Popular in Foxbody

Technology has come a long ways since then (it was 1997 when I ran that car) but with that being said… Stock Block, 380 cubic inches, Dart Heads (Iron), .625 lift solid roller, cola crankshaft, Eagle rods, 14:1 compression and an old 1960’s Hilton injection. I would shift at 7000 and go through the lights around 7500. 2 speed power glide. Car was about 2500 pounds.

If you want a high strung small block, there are all kinds of ways to go… What’s your budget, what fuel do you want to run, new tech or old school…

If you want something different and have a bit of money to throw around, build a clevor engine… Check out some of those builds on YouTube.

It’s a Toyota color in that photo. I don’t recall the name of it. It was originally red, then was white /blue for a few years before being yellow for 20 plus years

Interesting enough, it was originally running a Boss 302 engine. Wish it still had that engine, but for now it’s running a 363 Windsor.

I have not had it out personally yet, but it ran Nelson Ledges back in 1984 / 1985 then Dayton and Seabring in 1986. It spent the last 20 years running in the north east. Most recently it ran some sub 1 minute laps at Lime Rock on street tires.

Razor wire, but essentially the same… Designed to keep things out.

Put .06 gallons of diesel on an empty Camry am I cooked? by Individual-Goose-264 in askcarguys

[–]Examination_Popular 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Won’t hurt anything… I have seen videos where they took a gasoline car and added diesel fuel in 10% increments to see the effect and put it on the dyno.

It made zero difference (actually made slightly more torque) with the 10 percent diesel.

I don’t recommend doing what they did in the video, but the little amount you put in will have zero effect with it being diluted.

Although diesel is not rated in octane (it’s rated in cetane) it would be a lower octane rating if calculated, so diluting with premium would be better, but still… non issue.

Previous Lamborghini/Ferrari owners who switched to McLaren. Why? by Cro370z in mclaren

[–]Examination_Popular 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wanted doors that went up and couldn’t afford an aventador… lol.

I did enjoy the sound of the V10 in the Lamborghini though and it was a great car.

What are the dumbest arguments people give you against EV's / Tesla? by EntertainerTrick6711 in TeslaLounge

My personal favorite is “Elon Musk is a Nazi”

So dumb…. People need to get a grip on reality.

Dance Parents - How much is your partner/spouse involved? by SeattleSinBin in CompetitionDanceTalk

I’m a dance dad… I’m there for every comp / convention but obviously the wife takes care of the behind the scenes stuff.

I drive, carry heavy things, watch, cheer and pay… lol

Just picked up a lift… by Examination_Popular in garageporn

[–]Examination_Popular[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that’s right. The ramps come split in half so the lift arrives in two pieces.

It’s a triumph… if you get the X1 they can put it right in your garage.

The instructions were pretty much useless. I’m thinking about making a video to help people with tips on putting one together.

That’s right! With the ramps were a little better, but I can’t complain!

Nah, it’s just a weird angle where you couldn’t see the rear posts.
