only thing that i don't like is the way the magnets are kinda taped to the rotor, unless they are epoxied under that great tape or something?

Thats about the only part I have seen fail but it is because the gap changed, and it rubs. Usually the upper shaft gets bent. Just happens.

Yup.. have the whole box you sent but can't find the sheet :) I rule! I do have the sticker though and that would upset me more.. that's going in my window.. i like that you made them small
 
I lose everything though.. i bought a pack of 4 ground straps a month ago and now have spent like 3 hours looking for them
 
Raining pretty good here now. Supposed to till Friday AM Dam just put barley straw in the pond also hope it all doesn't flush out! Hard to find it lately here.
 
Dry today, rain moves in near midnight, out of here by Tuesday morning.
Not waiting any longer, I am calling my arthritis doctor today, would love to go fishing in front of this weather system, but not with this f..unk on my lower back..
Keep the studies going my Arkansas cousin @Sublime one

My son works on windmill towers and when they repair the blades they always have left over cloth and resin that they throw away.
I get it from him for free. :thumbsup:

Good morning :D
 
AMC had a bad rep. I was given a Javelin AMX once good shape had a bad rod knock. Screw it it is a AMC we reved the piss out of it till it threw the rod. Took a while. Man one of the ones I should have kept. Think it was a 390 at?

My buddies at the body shop/tow service had a policy, any car they had to tow in and store that they had to lien sale to get the $$, if it wouldn't sell off it went to the salvage yard. However, not with a running engine. Little '63 Rambler wagon, couldn't sell it after the lien sale, gotta blow it up. The AMC 327 in it, got it running, hooked it up to a GI can full of gas, turned the throttle return spring round backwards and let it go. Little bugger run 45 minutes at WOT before it made a bad noise, almost forgot, we knocked the oil filter off with a wrecking bar to begin with :lol: bout 15 minutes later it lost a rod and knocked a hole in the block, but kept running. The internals were literally glowing red :wtf:

Did that when I was working in a wrecking yard as a kid. It was fun. :thumbsup:
 
Jesus.. i was thinking of running a single 3" exhaust on my car to keep noise down plus i don't make a lot of power... just found a engine masters where they tested just that... dual 2.5" vs. single 3" and the 3" lost 40hp... i did not expect it to be that bad...
 
Hmm.. ended up putting a diferent muffler on the single 3" and made better power than the dual... Turbo muffler did worse on both setups.. now i'm back to square one :)
