    Just an FYI....

    Rick, last year my Christmas gift was COVID. It wasn't as bad as yours, bit it SUCKED. I am glad you are feeling better. I got my COVID shot last week, and I felt kind of crappy for a few days. The Flu shot never affects me, but for some reason the COVID shot always makes me feel kind of crappy...

    Mopar Muscle induction Extravaganza Dyno testing SBM intakes, comparison....

    About 20 years ago, I was at a general car swap meet with very little Mopar stuff. I did find one guy with mostly Mopar stuff, and he had a SBM dual 4 barrel intake manifold. I don't remember the brand, but he was asking $125 for it and probably would have taken $100. I have been kicking myself...

    These reusable zip ties are so cool

    I ordered some powder coating powder a while, back, and the bags came with zip ties wrapped around them. I was getting ready to cut the zip ties, when I noticed there was a little tab on them. I pushed on the tab, and sure enough, the zip tie came undone. You can reuse these zip ties as often as...

    I'm Cummins swapping a '74 Duster, thought I'd share the progress.

    OK, @Daniel Garcia, here are my thoughts: 1. Go for it. It's your car. It's your plan. And I think it will be cool. 2. I saw where a V10 Viper engine was put in a Mopar (an E Body I think). I wonder if people told him it would never work out? I KNOW that stuffing a 6 cylinder diesel in an A...

    Sad news from Rapchak the man helping me on the Demon.

    Prayers sent for your friends. No matter HOW defensively you ride, you can't guess when an idiot will run a stop sign, pull out right in front of you from a side street are cross over into your lane.

    14" Disk brakes

    I will agree that 4 wheel disks might be a bit of overkill for the street. I put disks on the front and kept drums on the rear. Huge improvement. When I read his post, I guess I thought he was doing disks only on the front. I am VERY happy with the front disk conversion. I would probably not...

    Does anybody know if these Byrna non-lethal gas pellet guns are legal in Canada?

    Pretty basic question. Does anybody know if these Byrna non-lethal gas pellet guns are legal in Canada? They do not shoot bullets, they shoot round pellets that have something similar to tear gas in them. Thanks

    Paint sanding question

    TOTALLY what he said. You will regret sanding with 400 and then applying filler. 400 will not give the 'tooth' required to give the filler something to really stick to.

    14" Disk brakes

    That makes no sense at all. Just because your drum brakes work "fine", that doesn't mean the car could not benefit by the addition of disk brakes. Everybody knows that disk brakes work better, will stop your car in a shorter distance, will not fade with heat as bad as drums, and are, therefore...

    14" Disk brakes

    I put a kit from Stainless Steel Brake Corp. on my 69 Barracuda and maintained 14" wheel status. The rotors that came with the kit were drilled for big or small bolt pattern. I have 14" Cragars on my car, and everything works fine.

    Stop in for a cup of coffee

    As a retired Air Force officer with 9600 flying hours, I have been to Florida many, many times. It is a beautiful state, and I can certainly understand why people want to live there. However, for me, Florida is a great place to visit, but I would not want to live there because of hurricanes...

    Winter will soon return :(

    That is not what I am talking about. I was talking about my neighborhood, and how water runs downhill. That is a natural thing. I agree with the fact that you cannot deliberately point water sources (extended downspouts, etc.) at your neighbors. I am just talking about a neighborhood where water...

    Winter will soon return :(

    I agree with most of what you said, except for the last sentence. I agree that you cannot intentionally cause water to drain into the next lot. for instance, you cannot put a ten-foot extension on your downspout and point it directly at your neighbor's house. Nor could you channel downspout...

    Winter will soon return :(

    Screw your neighbor!!! It's just frozen water. He should be thanking you for the extra moisture you are giving his lawn. Tell him that if he doesn't like it, he can call the police. And they, of course, will tell him to get a life. I have a 24" wide self propelled snow blower. It works fine. I...

    Hood clearance question

    @GTX JOHN is probably right. I have a 69 Barracuda with a 340. I put an Air Gap and a 750 CFM Eddy carb on it. My clearance was close, so I went with a 2" or 2.5" tall (I really don't remember) K&N filter. The guy at K&N told me that it would outflow the 3" paper element. Everything worked fine...

    Long Johns Silvers batter recipe

    Thanks. I used to really like LJS. There were 4 or 5 in Topeka, now there is only one. It got to the point where when you entered the place, the floor was a bit slick from grease, the salt and pepper shakers were slick and sticky with a layer of grease, the bottles of malt vinegar were slick and...

    Any Jeep technicians out there?

    No. They were both under the right front seat. It took me about an hour to R&R both batteries. @68cuda408 gave a good explanation of the process in post #25. Thanks @68cuda408, that was a great explanation.

    4 Headlights or 2 Headlights; opinions needed.

    @413, you are only half right. The next words out of that person's mouth would be, "But it had a factory Hemi." :rofl: :rofl:

    Any Jeep technicians out there?

    I had a 2018 Grand Cherokee with the V6 and that Auto Start/Stop function. It didn't bother me, because I don't mind saving gas and money, but my wife hated it. It had two batteries under the passenger's front bucket seat. I replaced them both in 2023. It was somewhat of a pain. The start/stop...

    4 Headlights or 2 Headlights; opinions needed.

    @Sir Ken, Would I do it to my car? No. I like the 2 headlight look on my 69 Barracuda. That being said, I rather like your idea. I think people should do what they want to do to their cars. If I saw it at a car show, I would be very interested to talk to you about it. How you did it, what parts...

    I am so looking forward to winter, and hot summer days being gone.

    In the past, I have always preferred summer because everything I like to do is outside. Working on cars, bodywork, rust repair, painting, yard work, etc. I never had a problem with the heat. The last few summers, I have gotten more susceptible to the heat. For the first time in years, I am...

    OK, I really, really hate to admit this, but I think I am among friends. I have been putting bolts in cardboard for years when I paint them. About 12 years ago, when I painted the Barracuda with base/clear F8 green, I had a whole lot of bolts to paint green. Hood bolts, decklid bolts, fender...
