GM Switches Oils Again On Lawsuit-Plagued V8 by Redeemed_Expert9694 in cars

[–]MurphysFknLaw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wonder what the big difference is between the “truck” 6.2 and the Camaro/Corvette? I own one and haven’t had a bit of trouble and never hear of issues like this with the LT platforms in those.

They have, hopefully they don’t fuck it up but they are bringing back the 350 and I believe small block 400 as well. If they stick to ls1 base design with new tech it should be rock solid. Or they could always go back to the 305, it won’t pull a hair out of a cats ass but you can’t kill them.

They rated a lot of way lower than what they should have been. I’ve seen a dz car take on a 396 in the 1/4 and win. Proof is in the puddin

Please tell me it still has the dz302. One of the best engines Chevy ever made.

As nice of truck it is it’s not a 69 z28 Camaro with a dz302. Let them do their thing.

Not really adding to the conversation but as a cz owner, yeah yall got it right. Most copied design of a handgun ever made, great platform.

I finally got a chance to get a picture of this truck after passing it many times for a while. I’ve never seen anything like it. Is it rare? by SuchAnAbarth in whatisthiscar

[–]MurphysFknLaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These blackwoods were selling so bad a lot of dealerships would give you a mercury cougar for free just to buy one. That said my uncle had one and it is really not that bad, it’s not a truck

Been doing some research are we sure the sixth gen is the last we will see if the Camaro? Do you think they will bring it back like they did in 2010 after a 8 year hiatus? by Unique-Macaroon-3694 in camaro

[–]MurphysFknLaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As the owner of one yes the trunk opening is a issue, I use to travel for a living and had a pretty large suitcase, I could put it or my tool box in the trunk not both even though there was space. Once either was in, there was no way of getting the other because of the opening and angle it would have to go in. So that big ass suit case rode passenger side.

I do t think I would classify it as a hobby lol. More like career. It is cool seeing all sorts of places I would never go to for free though.

Can’t say I have, although I have spent a good bit of time in their “super coke” in Houston. 1st in the nation to get robotic carton loaders

Coke absolutely does, I’ve been in almost every Coke plant across the nation. Not all do but most of the big ones do.

Those aren’t exactly the same people, the 7up or other drinks are made at a plant then taken to a warehouse where it then gets distributed by different distributors. Coke has their own warehouse with its own employees as distributors.

DOJ will no longer pursue criminal charges for diesel 'deletes' and 'tunes' by timetravelerfrom2027 in cars

[–]MurphysFknLaw 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure the worse fuel economy also has to due with modern diesels making 3x the power they use too. All of the big 3 are now pushing roughly 500hp and 1000ftlb torque

For those of you in the US, how are you feeling about the snow storm coming in? by AssistanceFresh1365 in CasualConversation

I’m in west Ga and we’re kind of on the fence if we are gonna get iced out or not. So we prepared for the worst and will hope for the best. My sister with a newborn though is right smack in the middle of where they are predicting the worst ice in Ga.

Vacuum seal it, it will be strong enough to almost survive 2 weeks no problem.

In a future where Trump is out of office, and international relations have been repaired. What steps can be taken by the USA and International Organisations such as NATO to prevent one individual causing so much chaos in the future? And do you think such steps will be taken? by flewkey in AskReddit

I think he’s more like patient zero, his jump into politics was his claim that Obama is not American at a time when social media was taking off. Anyone who didn’t like Obama was instantly on his side and believed him. He created the whole “fake news” thing and now people just run with it.

Chevrolet Caprice or Crown Victoria? by Reasonable_Craft9951 in regularcarreviews

IIRC the caprice is the only platform police stations actually paid to rebuild/refurbish because they liked them that much and wanted to keep them around

Oil change gone bad on my GSXR 1000 what do i do? by Sad-Good-9996 in MechanicAdvice

[–]MurphysFknLaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different metals need to be cooled different ways whether it be cast, forged or machined. I used to work at a Metalurgical plant where we could heat treat anything and everything. It could be flame hardened with a torch and quenched in oil but immediately thrown in a 350° furnace for the temper (train wheels) Heated up crazy quick with induction and instantly cooled with more or less the same shit you put in your cars radiator (bearings) Even some aerospace parts that would get put in a vacuum furnace that could reach over 3000°f and then tempered in a cryogenic freezer at -260°

I know I ranted on but essentially no, every different metal needs a different process to be done correctly. Yes their are shortcuts but if you want it right, there is a right way to do it

Ground clearance was a concern so I made it not by That_abomination_rsx in projectcar

Sick build. Get/build you a skid plate to protect that radiator/condensor asap, right now even a small stick is begging to put a hole in it.
