Sawsall the front of that **** with two vertical lines... Pull it out the front. It the way it is in those yards anymore. Watch someone destroy $500 in parts to get a $5 part out. Never a big proponent of that approach. Half off day is the key at PnP

No chance that works with a stock K/steering linkage A body car. Might work in a Dakota/PU application with a stock rear sump.

Yes indeed, it can be done right. It takes about 2 minutes of wrong to touch up those pretty headers to the ugly side! Header companies say that to avoid customers that don't do things correctly then wanting a redo because the customer messed up. My all time favorite was a kid I knew that...

Put 40-45* timing on it when breaking it in. If you run vacuum advance on an engine, it likely has more timing than that WITH a load driving down the highway. There is no load on the engine when breaking it in. Timing numbers can be increased without issue. Done a bunch of ceramic coated...

The wildest 5 seconds EVER!!!

Sorry, been sick... Not ignoring, just not feeling great and all that comes with not having any energy.

Some of the Phoenix members and parts buyers may have known and dealt with Jim. He passed away Sept 30th, cardiac arrest at 62 IIRC. He went by Jimacuda here. 64BelvJim and Deconstructor Jim on some other sites, the the F body sites, etc. He was a really good guy and funny as hell. Got...

I cross drilled the mount so it could go 90* to trailer and also fits in the truck receiver. Makes grabbing cars in odd places much easier to access The winch mount is an old hitch receiver. I cut the ball mount of of it.

Here's what I did, when you have a winch disappear, you go a different route than to solid mount it in the open! Not sure what you guys are pulling up on trailer, M1 Abrams tanks? That dinky HF winch pulls up C bodies with 2 locked up tires on my trailer.

Massive wreck for Preece. Violent.

It shouldn't be disturbed with the eliminator.

There is a reason I call them De-structions Can't tell you the number of products I sold that came back FUBAR'd with the instruction still neatly folded in the sealed plastic bag they came in from the factory! The best part was the part was broken in an EXACT fashion that the de-struction...

Same thing happened with the 7.3 PSD injector cup kit. Someone made one up, rent was the cost of the set up, $375 and you got your "rent" back minus $25 upon return. Then someone got it on a sob story without paying for it and kept it. The guy that made it said F it... not doing another...

Yep The best one was the random kid in the front seat of a car eating an ice cream sandwich, mom standing next to car with a stroller, that someone else owned. Not a fan of the 50's music, but it's OK. Just keep it mellow enough that people can enjoy without being overwhelmed. The people...

Got somewhere around 3.5 inches over 3 days. Wettest Aug on record IIRC.
