Emne: Re:
Tuesday: lol, the basic rule here is that any strange and or funny noises coming out of your car aren't a good thing. (just curious as to what a dirt dobber is and what the heck they sound like when building a nest)

Stevie: Not to mention the availability of paramedics. And don't forget our friends in the tech dept. to try and make sure we have the best protection we can while we're playing! lol

Emne: Re:
Stevie: all it does is improve the fuel atomization, which brings it closer to what a fuel injection system would do. with yours being an efi motor, you're better off working on an intercooler and maybe an improved induction system(you've probably done some of that anyways)

Emne: Re:
Stevie: actualy, what i had done should increase fuel milage on the street by about 15%!

Emne: Re:
Stevie: i have to run a carburater on mine, i had 3 of them custom done to maximize the mixture.(it has to do with the way the fuel is coming out of the boosters into the venturi, that cut the wasted fuel down a little. now we get more power out of it!)

Emne: Re: I have organised a get together tomorrow
Stevie: i'm hoping it's just a temporary thing! this truch is no where as nice as the one that got stolen!

Emne: Re:
Kipling: actually i use 20-50, it's more stabil at tempurature and takes less hp to push throught the motor. remember, i run a restricted class, everything i can do to cut hp loss is actually a hp gain!

Emne: Re:
tazman7474: one of the guys in the garage works in a large dealership by day, he tell us that some of the new motors are running .0007-.001! that's why they run 5w-20 oil in them, 10w-40 won't even flow through the motor!

9. Januar 2006, 03:48:03
tazman7474 
Emne: Re:
Kipling: at .003 i start losing oil pressure when the engine is up to temp, we probably run a little hotter than most boats do

9. Januar 2006, 03:39:02
tazman7474 
Emne: Re:
Kipling: i run clearances of .002 on the rods and mains, the book calls for .0015-.0025 i split it and run 8,000 rpm all day long with them!

9. Januar 2006, 03:16:26
tazman7474 
Emne: Re:
Stevie: with a problem like that and seeing how close the tolerances are in the newer motors, i think you're looking at pulling the motor and checking everything for dirt and debris!

4. Januar 2006, 00:25:13

Emne: Re: oh well
Stevie: it's easy after you get the motor out and on a stand!

Emne: Re: oh well
Stevie: ouch! all you can do now is tear in and see what it did, looks like you have a project for a little bit!

Emne: Re: as a comparison
Stevie: sometimes you have to trade tire life for grip! if i could only come up with a compound that gripped like bubble gum and wore like cast iron, i'd be rich!

Emne: Re: as a comparison
Stevie: the goodyear looked like the best choice to me too! and it's in the range of what you said you spent anyways. if i check around with some of the guys, i can probably find a couple of sites that have them cheaper.

23. November 2005, 20:44:11

Emne: Re: as a comparison
Stevie: when you go to the site, look on the left side for "search by size" that's a much faster way to search than by vehichle

Emne: Re: as a comparison
Stevie: 3 with a zr rating pirrelli, goodyear and bf goodrich all have one

Emne: Re: as a comparison
Stevie: for stuff like that i go to www.tirerack.com they seem to have just about anything you want in performance tires and have helped me out when i was racing on the asphalt

nobleheart: as strange as that looks, i'll bet it was worth the time and effort, just to see the looks on kids faces! lol

Emne: Re: Yay
ScarletRose: I'm thinking it's most likely in the dimmer switch assembly, considering you mentioned that you had to use the column shift to get them to work. i'm assuming you mean that you have to wiggle the dimmer switch handle!

20. August 2005, 12:55:47
tazman7474 
Emne: Re: Yay
Stevie: what are your rules on fuel and additives? i know a couple of tricks that could get ya a little more oomf! lol

i don't think i've ever seen a 496! i know there was a gm 396. the 496 must be a marine only engine?

Emne: Re: Off Topic - I Know - But...
galpal: actually i'd say that was on-topic! but i'm not sure about a free site that will get that specific!

Emne: Re:
Backoff: i doubt you could do any worse than jeremy did a couple of weeks ago! from the damge he did to the car he must've been one hurting kid! good thing he's a teenager and damned near indestrustable! lol
