    A904 transmission

    Looks like that is no longer available. Just tried to order two of them, from several places. I was able to place an order from the site that was linked (only site that didn't say not available) but they said backordered and late June estimated delivery. We shall see.

    Starrett got bought out?

    I remember when the Japanese started making/copying "measuring" tools. They were complete garbage. As time went on, they kept improving the quality. Now Mitutoyo is a brand that can compete with the best of them. I have many measuring tools. All are B&S, Starrett, or Mitutoyo. Yeah I have a few...

    How in HECK to you figure HP on a B&S engine?

    I have a 196 CC engine that is rated at 6.5 hp. Going to use it to build a "hybrid" handi cap scooter. The scooter uses two 12 volt lawn mower starter batters in series (24V), and doesn't have a lot of range. Going to couple the engine to a 24 volt GM alternator to keep the batteries charged up...

    Freind got a long-awaited phone call

    In most, if not all states it is illegal to sell a car without a title. However most states do have a method of obtaining a title, but it can be challenging and expensive. I have purchased vehicles without titles. I bought my 66 Valiant from a salvage yard with no title, just a bill of sale. It...

    Tracking USPS Signature Delivery mail- WTF???

    Just a FYI. You could have gone to your local branch of the same bank, and made a cash deposit into his account. No chance of the check getting misdirected. I have done this. Actually the depositor does not even need to have an account at the bank.

    Tracking USPS Signature Delivery mail- WTF???

    Every one on here is bitchin. I'll give an attaboy. Awhile back I ordered a bunch of slant six OEM head gaskets from a vendor in New Zealand. They arrived in great condition about 7 days after ordering by DHL. I really thought it would take several weeks considering the distance, and customs.

    Bumper Boyz... Stay Away!!!

    So you got one nice set from a company that bats about 10% good product. What would you do if you had gotten a typical (bad) pair. If the Bumper Boyz product is so good, why not buy from them?

    Stop in for a cup of coffee

    Morning. Worked on the cooling system on my D-100, yesterday. Looks like the radiator is partially plugged. Seems like no one has one available. Local rad shop wants $100 to rod it out and if any tubes open up then more money to repair. Guess I will call Champion and see how much extra they will...

    Stop in for a cup of coffee

    This one is real special. It was given to me by a friend's family after he died. It has been modified somewhat. Slant six (seems like fairly low mileage), all emissions removed, and super sixed (don't know if from factory), A833OD, 3.91 SG 8 3/4 rear. Larger exhaust system. Factory AC, PS, PB...

    I still haven't learned how to do pics. Truck is nothing special. Just an old beater that runs real good. Has a fair amount of rust.

    Whose going to Garlits meet in Ocala, Fl, Nov 4-6

    I was there today. Not as large as it used to be years ago, but much better than in the last couple of years. Was a pretty good turnout. I suggest going over. It is free for spectators, $5.00 per car for parking.

    Put my Opel Manta on Bring A Trailer. Sold

    A few years ago, my Grandson found a real unusual Corvair. It was in kind of rough shape, but 65 or 66 convertable turbo charged 4 speed, with factory AC. It is the only Corvair I have ever seen with factory AC. I would have liked to have gotten the car, but his wife got rid of it very quickly...
