Didn't mean they sound like 6 cylinders....I meant they don't sound as good as old V8's if you compare both with loud exhaust. They just have a weird sound when they have loud exhaust.

The Gen 3 Hemis don't sound much better than the V6 cars when they have loud exhaust. I hear them on the interstate about a half mile from my house making noise at night. They have a distinct sound and it ain't pleasant! That was the main reason I ditched the 5.7 Hemi swap for my 70 Duster and...

$75.00 ain't bad, even with the little rust place and the Harley floor mats! :rofl:

Trying to remember who all is in Iowa....how about @burdar ?

@toolmanmike Where you is? You make it ok?

My wife and I went out to eat last weekend with @RAT ROD AL & Theresa, and one of those butt ugly things pulled into the parking lot right outside our window. I told Al I was thinking about sueing Tesla for copyright infringement because it looks like that thing I drew on the wall with a crayon...

Does the 66 Valiant need a full floor pan or just patches? Auto Body Specialties has all 4 patches for early A bodies such as the 66 Valiant. Several years ago, someone on here used an AMD full floor pan from a 67 - 76 A body in an early A, but it took a lot of work to get the middle of the pan...

Nope, no ticking. Sometimes, the ticking noise with retrofit hydro rollers comes from worn lifter bores in older engines. I had my lifter bores bushed, so the whole shebang is new and working together. The bushings had .040 oil holes drilled in them before install, and that concerned me after...

Glad you're ok. Hang in there and get well soon. 8 stents sound like a lot, but a few may be doubled up or overlapping in the same artery.

I think the Howards lifters are re-boxed Morel's.......which is a good thing! :thumbsup:

R.I.P. Mr. Len. Very sorry for your loss. :(

Very sorry for his families loss, and also to my :canada: friends loss as well.

My machinist is one of my closest friends. He's 81 years old and has been a machinist for almost 60 years, and having built many engines for NASCAR teams and drivers that put a lot of big names in the winners circle. He will no longer build a street engine with hydraulic flat tappet cams because...

Sure doesn't seem like it, for sure! Time gets away though. Winston is a good guy, humble and seems like an old Rocker...lol. He got in a bad car wreck and was hurt pretty bad, but that was a while before his last post. Hope he's still on this side of the grass, and doing ok.

Glad you're doing better Kim. :thumbsup:

How high will the scale you bought read? I need to get one as well. My wife has a fancy schmancy food scale, but if I tried to weigh a disc brake assembly it would probably explode in cartoon fashion....lol.

I've pretty much used Pirate Ship exclusively since I learned of it from @CudaChick1968 a while back. One thing you need to be careful of when creating labels that you are sending to someone else to ship stuff back to you is, make sure you get the from and to sections filled out correctly. The...

Back in the late 70's, they used to have The Bug Bash at Greer Dragway in SC twice a year. First time I saw them, I just stood there with my mouth hung open because I had no idea a VW could be so fast. Most were Beetles with 4 cyl air cooled VW engines. The track limited them to the 1/8 mile...

The only one I've struggled with until I got the hang of it was when we bought our 5th wheel camper. I'd only pulled tag along trailers until then and 5th wheels and I imagine goosenecks act differently.

I found Moparts.com right after Al Gore invented the internet, and signed up in 1997 as JDMopar. I'm the same on every site I'm on because I don't want to have to remember who I am at wherever! I'm on a few Pontiac sites with this name and not one person has given me any crap about it...lol. I...

The Haulover Inlet videos show the same idiots after they finally get one in the water....lol.

LOL....our jet ski trailer is the same way. When we take them to the lake, I open the rear hatch of my wife's SUV to back the ski's in the water because @TrailBeast might be sitting over on the bank drinking coffee! :rofl:

They were fixing it up to be a mail carrier's ride....lol . :lol:

Before I retired, the company put the GPS tracker nanny boxes on our trucks. Within a month, the thing burnt up the ECM in my company pickup because it was extracting so much data from it on the steep, curvy mountainous roads I had to travel on. It went to the Chevy dealer on a hook. GM would...

Probably a little short trailer that is already jacked too far by the time he can see it....lol.

Culvers is my favorite, but is 15 miles away. If I'm out by myself, I'll do a Smokey Park Hwy combo......stop at McDonalds and get a basket of fries, then go to Burger King and get a Whopper w/cheese Lettuce, Tomato and Mayo plus a Coke.

@Princess Valiant Here's you a tow vehicle with 2 extra rear tires! :thumbsup:

Most of my car buddies are old guys like me. I'm 66. My longtime friend Johnny is the same age, and we've known each other since we were 18. He stopped at my house in 1975 to ask about a derelict 65 Barracuda I had sitting in the backyard....been friends ever since. My buddy Ben is 81 and owns a...

If this one turns fugly, my feelings won't be hurt if you have to whack it or move it. :thumbsup:

Wonder what ever happened to @winstoninwisc?
