    Hood Repair, Not Mustang...

    I like it, Grover. Why not put the aluminum Marquis wheels on it? I got one of those things as a loaner back in '99 and loved it so much I almost bought one. My friends all thought I was nuts, but man what a great car when it was new. Top notch. If I ever find a really clean one when I have some...

    Anyone With Soda Blast Experience?

    Nik, another thing to consider on the time it took, other than not having a nozzle to concentrate the media (that's what it looked like to me) is that soda is not a very abrasive media, and it will take longer than glass beads or black beauty, shark bite, etc. That may be something you want to...

    Anyone With Soda Blast Experience?

    Yeah, you'll have much better results with an actual setup designed for blasting with a nozzle on it to create the velocity you need. Most good blasting nozzle are ceramic so the abrasive doesn't wear it away as fast. Also, the larger compressor the better with blasting. It doesn't take long to...

    Fox Holy Smokes! Is This An Amazing Car, Or What?

    Personally, it makes no difference to me if the car gets bought or not... I just shake my head when someone calls a stroker junk if it doesn't have afr or huge tfs heads on it. Lots of heads out there that perform well, people are too brainwashed.

    Fox Holy Smokes! Is This An Amazing Car, Or What?

    While the guy that owns it might not know a lot about it, I can tell you diamond pistons are not junk. It most likely has good forged rods and crank in it if it truly has diamond pistons. The guys on mtod that make the engine masters videos also did a dyno shootout on exhaust sizes that pretty...

    Fox Holy Smokes! Is This An Amazing Car, Or What?

    I'll bet it goes for closer to their asking price. That's not just a clean Cobra, that is a fully built street monster. No way you could build that car for that money.

    Hey! You Northeast Guys!

    I just got in from the Wursthaus for some nice German food and drink... in shorts and flip flops. Summer has arrived in Texas.

    This is how mine was done, only the clay was six feet deep, with a nice layer of sand below. They poured 42 6 foot deep bell bottom piers with rebar inserted to support my beams. Freakin piers cost $100 each...

    Outnumbered By Idiots

    Yeah, I hate to see that. When I started I'll admit I had a lot to learn. It is VERY easy to destroy stuff with a turbo if one thing is wrong, and there are dozens of things to look out for. Nowhere near as easy as building a nasty N/A motor.. As much as I know about carbs vs efi, I'm still...
