What is your speed now. What city are you in. Are you within 3 miles of the phone companies juction box near your house,(DSL should get you close to a 5 mbps line speed)

Fiber Optics company here in the area just notified me they are completed and ready to hook people up in the area. HBC Hiawatha Broadband Comunications out of Winona MN. Going to their office in Cannon Falls this week to see what it's all about. Brand new network is going to have problems to begin with.

Got the Mobil Hotspot option on your phone like I do with Verizon, that gives me around an 8 mbps line if my other service goes down, but you are burning data too.

Guessing 80.00 per month with the base Fiber Optics line HBC, supposed to be super fast, will see . . .

I’m in a similar boat. My only option though is Comcast and those fuckers raped me last week, took several hundred dollars out of my account unauthorized. Disputed the charges and got my money back but it’s still a nightmare as they keep trying.
 
Two tons of pellets picked up and unloaded. Our new tub/shower arrived also. Guess i need to start demolition. Thats gonna be unpleasant.
 
No, not today. I need to get hoses and a belt fitted. Before parts store closes.

We have Mediacom. My internet here works fine for me. My son uses the speed more than I do for gaming and streaming movies. It's the $200 a month bill for internet and tv. I have phone in there too but don't use theirs yet. That will save $50/ month when I do.
 
Yeah that 200.00 a month is crazy, but you get the TV. Can you get over the air TV, I know not much to watch, but news is there . . .

Can try Century link DSL for internet only no phone, should be 50 or under per month. Des Moines has Century Link available DSL. DSL is good basic service, pretty reliable, functioning speeds. I am on DSL here with a 5 mbps line, it fluxuates between 2.5 mbps to 5 mbps . . I can do everything I need to do with it. If it goes down I jump on my Phone's Hotspot network and use that wifi in the house for the computers until my DSL comes back. Lightning is hard on DSL . . .

Satellite internet services like Hughs Net is not very good, spotty at best. Weather affects it badly too.

A antenna gets 20 chanels I hear. Probably all we need. I run through wireless here in the house and I am at 25.5 download and 17.8 upload.

Those are really great speeds there with Mediacom Cable. Going back to a 5 mbps line would be a change for you after that much speed, kind of comes down to money going out every month and what you want to deal with. You are doing a good job being mediatior here on FABO with that speed you have now, maybe FABO administration can kick in some money to help you maintain that speed for the work you are doing on this site.

I pay 90 a month internet only plus 6 for amazon prime video. Would be 50 percent cheaper if I agreed to go on a contract but I don’t like those.

Not sure yet on price but they just put fiberoptic in where I'm building my house.

We have business fiber close but they aren't hooking to residential. (yet) Our city is thinking about setting up a internet utility for fibre. I hope they do.
 
Just got back from a couple hours of cruising. The car was running great so we just drove all over the backroads for about 60 miles. My daughter had a great time!

Would think most of the wear would be on the nose - and for that we can reference the lift spec.
I assume the best way to measure is a solid lifter and measure the cam direct rather than at the valve.

However, if you measure at the valve, any "blips" would be amplified by the rocker arm ratio...
 
Mattax said:
That's the point - did you read the other thread? Chrysler book specs are not at .006" valve. They are based on the intersection of two lines on the cam drawing. That's what Wyrm's written and it seems correct. IIRC he said it works out that the book spec on the opening side is around .008 but not exact.

It would help to see the original part blueprint to determine....

Here is the Best Stuff ever to cure Poison Ivy effects.
Prednisone, 20 MG, Take one tablet twice daily for 7 days. Starts working immediately, great relief.
Get your doctor to prescribe this for you, inexpensive under 10.00 dollars for the prescription.

The oils from the poison ivy is what is making your body react to it. Prednisone temporarily shuts down your immune system so that your body quits reacting to it and it heals right up.

I can get poison ivy just by looking at it from 100 feet away. I must have had it 8 times now over the years cleaning out the tree line around here.

They prescribed that to me and I didn't like the side affects...

However the dosage was all f*cked up:

10 Mg

Take 6 tablets in days 1-4
5 tablets on days 5-6
4 tabs on days 7-8
3 tabs on days 9-10
2 tabs on days 11-12
take 1 tab on days 13-14 with food.... :wtf:

Just collecting info....

I think dibbons wanted to have one made...

Ken Hoard at Oregon cams can bump the one lobe to meet the exact location so the clones that he makes will be to the book spec, just 006" less exhaust lift, which is not to far off and may be within print tolerances...

This pic is from a guy selling it on eBay. $55.

I have been looking and looking and looking... well, as you said, the guy wanted $55 for it. I can not afford to buy a $55 filter every time I change oil. So, my option would have to buy for example a WIX 51515 filter and peel the decal of it, and find a way to get that old MoPar logo on. I do have a few options for it, it is in the back of my head, so I guess whenever I wake up around 3 at night to go to the little boys room I will lay awake after that wondering about that logo, until I have solved it. :D
