    1965 Instrument Pod

    Hey, have any of you guys ever installed or used the Tach/Oil (whatever) dual gage pods that can be added to the '65 and '66 Mustangs? I'm just interested in your experiences. Oh, and have you ever done one in blue? LOL!

    About To Replace The Wiring Harness . . .

    I'm going to need the 22 circuit because, short of A/C, I've got everything you can imagine. :D I'm going to order it from Dallas Mustang probably tonight. I'll send you guys pictures!

    About To Replace The Wiring Harness . . .

    I looked at Autowire, and the price is good BUT . . . all of the reviews said you had to move to a 1 wire "GM" alternator and you have to change some of the switches inside to "GM style". And there was some talk of a $120 crimping tool that you don't REALLY need . . . but you REALLY need. I'm...

    About To Replace The Wiring Harness . . .

    Okay, I'm about to replace the wiring harness on my '65, and it looks like the Painless wiring harness is the best one to go with. If not, what's better? I've also heard that the Painless harness doesn't have a lot of the plugs (tail lights and head lights). If not, do any of you guys know...

    Does Anyone Have An All-in One Printer That They Really Like?

    We got a good deal on a Canon at HH Greg. It's wireless with all the bells and whistles, and it came in under $100.

    Sticky: I6 to V8 conversion

    Man, sorry this took so long to get back to you. The front discs and rear drums aren't bad. ProMotorsports Engineering actually has some drum setups that are pretty amazing (for drums). They supposedly have a "zero fade" system. Dunno . . . but it sounds good. I'd ditch the radiator for a...

    What Do You Carry And Why?

    Actually, they ARE the alarm. LOL! The little dog and the American Bulldog, anyway. ONE of our pits will bark, the rest will either run or await treats from said intruder. LOL! The .410 rounds MIGHT get in deep enough, but they're on the ragged edge. One issue with them that REALLY gets...

    What Do You Carry And Why?

    AND FOR THE RECORD, yeah I heard the slide . . . on MY gun . . . as I was coming into MY house. Technically, I cannot sneak into MY house. It's like stealing your own car or something. It can appear to be the case, but it's impossible to actually do.

    What Do You Carry And Why?

    Josh, your logic is sound i.e. for a rushed first shot, having a "spread" gives you an advantage. If it worked out like people imagine, honestly, I'd probably carry the same rounds. The problem is that they really don't do what people think they do. The "spread" really isn't that much...

    What Do You Carry And Why?

    Ironically, I don't have any data supporting or refuting that . . . and I have no idea why I don't. I may have to go digging. I think it depends on if you KNOW you're shot or not. Lots of people utterly freak out when shot, but some don't even realize it till afterwards. Most likely it...

    Tankless Water Heaters

    Sadly, we don't have gas run to the house. I'm learning there's not a lot of natural gas options in Florida. Go figure. I'm hearing the electric ones don't work particularly well, they don't heat the water evenly (especially after a few seconds), and they don't save THAT much money compared...

    What Do You Carry And Why?

    Eh, I'll flip you for the heels . . . I've dropped about 10 pounds so they don't hurt as much as they used to. :D Comically, I'm built to carry concealed . . . it's like one of the few advantages of being in my shape. I have a great Concealco rig that will hid a full sized Wilson 1911 under...

    What Do You Carry And Why?

    Okay, after reading some more of the conversation, here's my long and short of it. 1. I train draw and shoot . . . and shoot . . . and shoot. I'm decent. In my first USPSA "run and gun" competition, I scored in the top half of competition shooters. The best thing about the competition was...

    What Do You Carry And Why?

    In his defense, I THINK what he means is load the first shot of the Judge up with a .410 SD round as either a warning or "initiating" round and then load subsequent chambers with .45 LC rounds . . . which the Judge fires just fine, too. We're a package deal, baby, and I'm easier and cheaper . ...

    Anyone got any experience using them?

    What Do You Carry And Why?

    Actually, the water jug tests correlate really well. So do the drywall board tests. It's why people still rely on them. Water, for what it's worth, is a pretty uniform material. More than likely it's a lot more uniform that ballistic gel. Comically, the human body isn't that homogeneous at...

    What Do You Carry And Why?

    Box O Truth tested that ammo, too: http://www.theboxotruth.com/the-box-o-truth-53-the-taurus-judge-revisited/ It was bare minimum penetration . . . when it penetrated. It's serviceable, but it's not exactly impressive. I looked over the net at other independent tests, and they ranged from...

    What Do You Carry And Why?

    Actually, when I lived in tornado alley in Tennessee, yup, had a reinforced fully furnished basement. And my Mustang has a REALLY nice roll cage and restraints. You really don't understand much about real world ballistics, do you? Small birdshot doesn't have tons of penetration. Look at some...
