They should change their motto to "Velocitas Ridiculum"
If the Air Force gets to have the F-22, the Navy gets to have railguns on every ship. |

In another thread I saw mention of TGO and 'toothless retarded hicks" so that reminded me that I'm in Hermiston now! Hehe. It's not that bad, it's no Granite Falls, but I saw one guy in a giant S ... |

Sorry, I was pretty cheap. Hopefully they didn't do anything that can't be undone. I don't trust myself with transmissions. I did do my rear axle which is doing good so far. Good luck! |

I'll be much happier when this isn't my driver anymore so I can get some stuff done. The drivetrain is more or less pretty good but the car feels too cobbled together. I've had to add in wiring so it ... |

Back when I had the 99 mustang I had the y-pipe break off where the passenger side manifold dumped into it.

Well I got anxious and got some dielectric grease and put it on, and then I found an embarrassing mistake I made while putting the 700r4 in. The car runs much better. If I had the WB o2 in I'm sure th ... |

I hope so. I need to have a new bung welded on as I am still using a single wire sensor and it's further downstream than I'd like. Tomorrow I'll mess with it. I found the aldl cable so I'll see what t ... |

Got the sensor installed. I can't tell if it made any improvement because the threads came out with the old one. I had to unplug the WB sensor and move it there for now. Now the ignition coil is spark ... |

I think the more lope-ey the cam the higher RPM they are best for. And RPM and TPI aren't usually paired together. |
