Finishing up getting the chemicals right for a 100% water change In my pool. So far 15 bags of salt, 4 gallons of pool conditioner (cyanuric acid) and pool shock. Going to Scottsdale for the weekend to see my brother’s new custom home he constructed on the golf course glass alone was over a...

i have a neighbor who lives near me on 5 acres, has a toyhauler at his property and was hoping to get a few solar panels installed at his location "turn key"

cant believe all these parts were brand new and now look at them! DBW throttles can move about three times faster than your foot can so doing ignition cut and throttle cut to execute the shift. the throttle doesnt need to be 100% closed but maybe a 50-70% closed and only for a super small...

it needs a lot more pressure than the air tanks, and it's a lot more involved in that the shifter would change, probably redundant paddle shifter on steering wheel and most importantly the air shifting would require consistent DBW operation which my funco only has drive by cable throttle. With...

this is my Special SU car that was built 15+ years ago. it was the only car i didn't win the EPO with. i have had a 3.0 liter Subaru in it at 28psi and 900 HP but it was when i first started playing with the flat six and it didn't last long. Shortly after i bought my first Funco and this has...

Nissan GTR twin turbo V6 VR38TT. This motor is rated stock HP at 545. these motors can make 1000 hp in stock form. With mild upgrades are in the 12-1500 hp range. T1 even makes a 4.1 liter stroker motor, billet block (costing $70k) and is in every fastest R35 car in the world

super charger are not as efficient as a turbo and from what i see, compound turbos are even more efficient than just one turbo making the same boost. . i think it would be cool. i think the bottom end could be just as good if not even better than a super charger. besides being less...

8 of my grandkids were over doing the easter egg hunt, dinner and coloring the hard-boiled eggs. one of my grandkids is about 5 and he loves eggs. well he was showing me how much he likes eating eggs. he's showing me the yoke and says i really like the inside. as i look closer he was eating...

He has Risen!

Compound turbos can be incredible to make instant low end boost. And are more efficient in that they can broaden the power curve. Basically n the application I’m thinking is a GTR v6. There would be the basic two turbos hanging off the exhaust manifolds. The tail pipes of these two turbos...

Well over the past few weekends I’ve been super busy. Took the bucket and quick change rams off of my excavator to rebuild them. Huge job. The ram I guess is 600lbd. The quick change is probably 1000lbs. Had the shaft hard chromed. Nut was on with 3200 ft lbs. my custom wrench cost me $375 to...

I will but curious if anyone has done one in the dunes and what was the result?

just curious if anyone has seen one or know of any successful reports of someone running one. I am usually a "KISS" kind of guy but i do have some interest in a custom project

that is cool, way to go Ed and Ramone!!

You do have adjusting nuts at the shifter for right and left. However before you do that the shifter handle must be perpendicular to the shifter box while in neutral. You may have to lengthen or shorten the overall length of shaft by disconnecting the joint at back and give a few full turns. If...

Worked on the mini x pinion drive had a hydraulic leak for a long time. Installed it and tested it on my new lot. Pulling out a few huge rocks knocking down an old dead tree. Got a 35’ fiberglass flagpole delivered ( for the new lot) went to my buddies surprise 60th birthday party This week I...

Love rotties. About time I get another one. Love the pool pic

Early 90’s was invited by a friend and took my IT200. Seized it in 1 hour going full blast everywhere. Saw olds and everyone had CR500’s and fast. Had no money so I bought a CR480. Thought I would kick everybody’s butt. I was still the slowest. That bike was a monster. Arm pump in 10 mins...

Took the quick hitch off my 50k lb excavator to rebuild the ram. Took 4 hours just to get it off and 4 hours to disassemble. Had a stuck pin that took relieving with a drill, pb blaster and 20 ton press at full bypass and heat and it still wasn’t budging until I hit it with an air chisel and...
