All cars capable of creating smoke shows and laying long stripes. When ever the feeling strikes….. Boom Baby!

For me, it’s stuff like, “My Dad had (or “I” own a ) a - insert random car model - just like this with the 498 dual quad quadrajets and a manual 5spd OD transmission. It was that one year only dual over head cam model for that extra 80hp, you know the one right? The electric blue paint and...

I like the gas station conversations. It’s when they start bullshitting me, I kind of turn off to them, just pump my gas and say have a nice day.

True! I’m on a path to create or somewhat duplicate todays methods but still use yesteryears equipment. Moderate compression, short duration/high lift cam with a really nice cylinder head and intake for the engine and a simple OD trans for longer legs.

My Magnum is just a plain 5.9 with bolt on parts. No camshaft swap yet but it’ll be a mild one. Minor shift kit in the trans and a low stall, 3.55’s, ready willing and able to drive anywhere. There’s more road noise from the tires than the exhaust. Actually. I don’t hear the exhaust unless I’m...

Really? The Summit headers don’t fit well with P/S? Weird, all 3 of mine fit mint.

I’m hoping by fall to do something similar on my channel. This is fun stuff to me.

That IS one UGLY S.O.B.!

This is how it works. The camshaft will have a lobe lift of .333. But the rocker will alter the amount of lift by the amount of its ratio. If the rocker was a 1:1 ratio, you would have .333 lift at the valve. A 1.5 X .333 = .4995 or just round it up to .500 A 1.6 X .333 = .5328 or just round...

Since you have nether A D your using speedmaster heads, where do the heads ports start to loose flow? I, myself like to lift the valve as much as possible or at least to where the maximum amount of flow happens in the head. This is not always possible but I try. There isn’t a lot of power to...

An electric pump for the mechanical pump was the old way of doing things to ensure the mechanical pump would always have fuel. The fuel pump also acted as a pressure regulator. Fuel pressure regulators came in later when the fuel pumps introduced more pressure for more volume. Currently, I use...

Visit a car meet and find a MoPar club rather than a local mechanic since most are not of an age where they understand a carburetor or the ignition system. Much less one where it’s been altered and upgraded. If a local shop has an older fella you might be in luck.

Where are you in Ohio? There are a bunch of members in that state and surrounding areas.

Hooker headers, excellent start. What I mean is, dual exhaust with an H pipe or X pipe and what size are the pipes? Then muffler brand. No worries, no that important at the moment.

I like this! ^^^^^^^ The duration @.050 is 241*’s. A 3.23 gear is a good bit to low. 3.91’s at a minimum. What size tire is in the back? What ignition do you have? What is the initial timing at? Is it a MoPar performance distributor? What octane are you using? Do you have a tachometer in the...

Ahhhhhh , your doin OK if your still in the game Happy Birthday!!! Coming to Florida?

Invite them in, have them take a seat. Then pull the curtains down revealing a goat headed Pentastar and thank them for there self sacrifice to donate there blood and life to the lord Satan. Tell them you’ll be right back with the ritual knifes and your friends will be over in about 5 minutes...

They get you coming and going, one way or the other, both parties are being bent over the table.

I can’t stand that crap, total BS! I agree! They should have the decency to be upfront.

Send them in a PM

Yea, nice neighborhood. I’m a short drive south.

You got it!!! Congratulations!!!!! It sounds like you have found an awesome spot.

Let us know when you come down!

Being here a short time, I can tell you it’s easy to see the snow bird traffic differences. Now going on what you hear, is partially true. I say location dependent. Let us know when you actually experience your area all year round. It’ll be interesting to new guys like me. Bad advice IMO...

HOA’s can be really F’ed up and pile on a Karen.

Stay out of HOA’s if possible!

Very true of most Blue states. New York is also one of those. Which millions in the cities, and there’s 8 million on a small island roughly 5 X 24 called Manhattan , never mind the other 4 counties that make up NYC, the country and suburbs folk don’t have the numbers to overcome.

I should have thought about this before I posted the above. New York, a good 1,000 miles away???? Has had cat 5 hurricanes. Seeing the destruction of of Glory on n its flooding was crazy. But that’s not the worst! Not even a cat 4. There was hurricane Sandy that was pretty bad, then there was...

True, it washes out the mountain roads and creates lakes in the valleys. It’s a Noah’s ark event right….. My sister lives in eastern Willmington very close to the Cape Fear mouth to the ocean, cousins in Raleigh and friends around Charlotte. Hurricanes for North Carolina are a bit less than...
