I keep getting the notices in the mail to have mine done. I haven't yet cause I am not to sure it will help the problem. If it is just a band-aid then they can keep sending the notices. H.D.:w

Cannot beat a free welder of any sort if it works. I have a free oxy/acet set that was given to me several years ago. It sure has come in hand a couple of times. I'm now trying to learn how to braze with it. So far so good. I haven't burned anything down just yet. Just have to remember to keep...

Ruby, are you using one of the wire welders? Seems like those are the deal for doing light welding. That is what I want. I've seen them at Sears for a couple hunder bucks for the set up. They do work well for sheet metal and frames. Just got the front roll up door on mine building...

Geneus I too at times feel a little intimidated by all of the crap on these new engines. The engines are basically the same as they were back in our days (60's 70's). The thing that makes them so intimidating is the emissions crap. But if you have a good scanner the computer will tell you when...

Hey, cut your cell phone on. Trying to call you:-) H.D.

Boy, how did I miss out on this. I just got back from help my stang buddy out. He has been getting a CEL and the code was reading a bad fuel evap canster purge valve. Found out the valve wasn't grounded therefore it wasn't opening as it should. Got that taken care of but it's still sending the...

Thanks Tammy. Sorry bout getting of the job topic. Of course we could use this as a PART time job topic:L. H.D.:w

Hey, I sent you another e-mail. do you know anything about Tbyrne over in Westport? H.D.

I've been doing a lot of reading on SCs. From what I've read over on corvette forums you want to stay below 500rwhp if you have a stock bottom end motor. Check out the CF forced induction section. Some really good stuff. I really want to do the SC but don't want to have to spend 10gs on an...

I haven't looked at the Paxton. Do you have to drill any holes in the oil pan? I was looking at the Vortec. It comes as a complete kit for around $3700.00. But the down side is that you have to drill a hole into the oil pan for the return line. The other thing was that Procharger claims to make...

Still interested:). Hey Todd, John (the guy with the Mustang) is working me over about modding my stang. So far I've put the x-pipe on (no cats), 2 chamber flow masters, and a cold air kit. I must say that just that little bit of work woke the pony up:D. Completely different car. Wow. Now he is...

Sounds like you are in research. So am I. H.D.:w

I used to run the vet clinic at Edwards when I was stationed at Fort Irwin. I really loved the desert. Lots of open highways to open her up a little. I had the chance to see the space shuttle land at Edwards:_rock. Also got to see the B-2 bomber (the wing) when it was being tested at Edwards. I...

My line of thinking. My vettes are my weekend hobby and if I have-to I'll cut back on the beer purchases. My little Alero gets about 34 MPG. I just changed the plugs so i hope it will go up a mile or two per gallion. If it dies, it has over 200,000 on the clock, I guess it will be time to get...

I sure don't disagree with you Barry. The big blocks sound even better in the C2s. I do have a plan for next year. I have a very large amplifier that I am going to bring with me. When 12 noon Sat comes i am going to turn that baby on, start the Z, and have someone hold a microphone right at the...

Cool. Hey you can see my car in the video sitting next to the Grand Sport. Cannot hear it though because of all the racket 67 is making:D. All I got to say is mine sounded wimpy compared to 67. H.D.:w

I think that how you drive your car, when you drive your car, how often you drive your car should be left entirely up to you. I know they will not melt in the rain. And yes mine stays parked if it looks like rain. Reason being is that with the kind of crazy drivers on the road now-a-days, even...

I have a roll-around cart that I am going to use to put my old HP computer on. I want to use it for doing engine scans, computer manuals and such to work on the vettes with. With a 4 gig HD I figure I can do a lot with the computer as an aid to diagnosing problems and doing help stats through...

Did the tool belt come stocked with the female tools of choice? If not these make wonderful gifts for the lady of the house. It keeps her from raiding your tools. :L H.D.

Heading home on the 26th:D. I got to go through Carlisle first. Then after a weekend of fun I'll be ready to get started the following Monday. Job plan calls for hanging the over head door first, then painting the floor, then a little landscaping to make the place look good. After that i can...
