I could respond with about 10 different articles just on this particular topic that support what I'm saying from non partisan sources. However, seeing as it's a waste of my time and I apparently already broke the rules, I'm not going to bother, and will give no further comment on this thread.

Holy hell... Look at that thing. Wonder what happened to it? Probably scrapped I would assume? Can you imagine the noise that thing must have made? You'd almost think at that point it would be more simple to build a machine around a detroit EMD 567 two stroke locomotive/marine diesel engine at...

Oh okay cool. Turns out I was thinking about the M59 which was the predecessor to the M113, it had two engines but they were gas. I almost bought one of them one time like 10 years ago. Till I came to my senses and realized it would be completely useless and cost a fortune to fix haha.

I was referring to the virus, it'll kill you regardless of your political beliefs. And as for what I said, it's well documented that federal authorities have seized PPE and diverted medical equipment which was allocated to, or paid for by states like California and New York, among others. If...

Well I don't even see how it's political but it's been made political. And for the record I don't have cable so I don't watch any of those 24 hour all about the ratings cable "news" outlets, which I don't necessarily believe are propaganda, but they certainly are not true "news" so much as...

Uses two of them doesn't it? While I want to say "most" M4 Sherman tanks were powered by radial (gas) continental aircraft type engines, I know some were powered by 671 engines, two or three of them coupled together. Believe they were mostly used by the Marine Corps in the Pacific theater...

I didn't know you could just reverse some components and change the rotation of the engine. I would have thought certain parts would have to be replaced. The 671 often called "gray marine" engines were used on most if not all of the US landing craft commonly called "higgins boats", used to...

If you "know" you don't have it... How the hell can you "know" for certain you don't have something that can infect you and yet show no symptoms? What "political weapon"? Over 180,000 people in the US alone have died from it due to bad faith arguments and bad "science". The only politicizing...

I don't understand the whole "asymptomatic" thing as an excuse. It's believed that as much as 60% of the adult population of the world has herpes and are asymptomatic. That doesn't mean I'm gonna bang some sl*t I meet at the bar without a condom... So what if it's asymptomatic? I don't want...

They spend a lot of time in Bird In Hand... I'm kinda surprised whoever made that video hasn't gotten sued by Comedy Central "sloppy seconds" is the fictional 80's hair band of Nash Ricky aka comedian Nick Kroll. Who coincidentally also had that ongoing gag "pawnsylvania" a fictitious pawnshop...

The 12v71 could be had in semi trucks they were nicknamed "the buzzin' dozen" or "rocky mountain humming bird" for their distinct sound particularly when pulling a heavy loads up long hills. There was also 16v71 I'm pretty sure, although as I recall it was too large to put in anything like a...

I haven't had any of my current cars to the track ever. I don't have any idea of their times or consistency. I'd have to guess the GTI would be the most consistent since it's got all kinds of electronic aids, traction control, rev limiter, etc. To be honest drag racing has never really...

All kidding aside it does actually clean carbon and gunk off of your valves, chambers, and pistons. The main benefits are if you spray 50/50 distilled water and pure methanol, the methanol in the spray is additional fuel that's like 110 octane. And the conversion of water into steam carries a...

Bet my Elky can do the 1/4 mile in under 20 seconds with a tail wind... I don't think it would like driving 3 hours down the highway though.

For some reason I don't like the idea of spraying water through the carburetor. I'm sure it can work but it seems like bad idea to me carburetors really don't like water or methanol it's highly corrosive to brass and aluminum. Wonder if that's why it never caught on? I know there are still...

I like the inline six sound a lot.

Never even heard of an edelbrock water injection kit... I know according to like Sno performance and what's that other company Devil's Own or something like that... That water injection will work fine on a naturally aspirated engine, but it's really most beneficial to turbo and supercharger...

Whatever I do it'll be turbocharged, I don't think there's much point to ITB intakes on a turbo car. Triple Weber's do look awesome on a Datsun, currently it has the stock dual Hitachi SU carbs on it. If I was definitely staying naturally aspirated with I'd get the triple Weber's. Some little...

Looks like it's got authentic Iroc wheels on it... Those are worth a few bucks if they're in good condition, and assuming you're not attached to them. What's your plan for the car? I like those 84-92 F bodies. They handle and ride pretty nice. Too bad they have the whole "mullet" and white...
