  1. :laugh: Now, not all dumbs are blonde.
  2. There should be 3 different units of measure. SI Units SAE Units Weiner Units
  3. I knew you were being sarcastic! The companies we rebuild stuff for tell us to use what ever we think we should use. The material call outs are shit we don't have, like 1075. Sometimes they call for 1045, when the carbon number can vary +/-4, so 1040 would be considered nearly the same thing if you account for its carbon number variance. And, if you ever get the chance to have some metric sized TGP (turned/ground/polished) material quoted....do it. We had a customer yell at us, in our shop, because he said the price was too high. We told him "This isn't Europe. Places here do'nt stock metric TGP. Its special order" He told us (in his own words) "There aint a damn bit of difference between metric and american." :baseball_wassat: According to our material supplier, the difference was about $1000.00 for a 12 foot piece between the 2.
  4. I get alot of prints from companies using foriegn built equipment. Alot of the stuff I rebuild is from Switzerland and Belgium.
  5. Multiply by .03937 if you have a measurement in millimeters converting to inches. Divide by .03937 if you have a measurement in inches converting to millimeters. .03937 inches = 1mm
  6. Get well soon BigWill! :baseball_wibble:
  7. Yeah, watch out for that guy. He's got a wicked mean Atomic Leg Drop and Axe Bomber.
  8. It would be better if she was holding it upside down. :baseball_bat:
  9. This is awesome. Since I bought my billet Marvins I've wondered what the hell goes on inside a nitrogen charged shock. I've had to hold myself back more than once on tearing one apart. Mostly because I dont want to end up with something blasted through my eye when I do something stupid and the N2 lets go at 700psi.
  10. Some people collect Precious Moments figurines, Nyuk collects Banshees. :baseball_wassat:
  11. Exactly. There is such a thing as too much power. Now, if he can get his weak links in the drive train figured out, he might be able to keep in front.
  12. If I had the bike here I could do it easy. I made some custom stinger tubes to route the silencers to the middle of the bike under the seat, and and to get it around a 2:1 filter. Shouldn't be too hard if the person you send it to has the bike and a bender right there. :baseball_mitt:
  13. It bears an uncanny resemblance. What does it cost to ship a brick? Can I call a local brickyard in DC and just have them delivered on a flat bed??
  14. Now thats goddamned funny! If there ever was a way to get someones attention its to either shock them with porn, violence or send them a ton of bricks.
  15. This is why I mix my oil at gas at 20:1 but I mix it 20 parts oil to 1 part gas. That way I KNOW I will have enough oil without worrying about settling or precipitating out of the emulsion.
  16. That makes alot of sense.
  17. DONT EVER USE A JERRY CAN!!! I only use Castanza cans. They mix better than Jerry cans, or Kramer cans.
  18. Happy Birthday Anthony. So, he's doin shit like this now?
  19. That was aimed at me wasn't it. Damn stupid TRS-80.
  20. In my local paper this morning they put on the front page of the local section "The New Emo Trend" and they show (presumably) 4 sad "girls" in the captioned photo. What the fuck? This was going on about 6 years ago. When ever it was Linkin Park came about, but apparently now its the top trend to follow. We got a few of them at the gym here too. They come walking in wearing girls pants and leather hats n shit. Whats funny is they are all built like coat hangers, but act 1/2 tough.
  21. From my limited experience it sounds like you are boarder line needing to run higher octane gas. I know a few people here that had stock stroke and bore, but 18cc domes and everyone runs +4 ignition. They'd run a mix of 112 (its all the local guy had for a while) and 91 or straight 91 depending, but I don't personally have the knowledge to say you'll be safe. I run about a 20cc dome with all the same shit and I run 91 with no problems so far.
  22. I'm down. I'll pretend I'm from anywhere you want.
  23. I was told once that when I get on the city bus that there is always at least one crazy person riding. I've never seen anyone crazy riding the bus yet!
  24. Have you ever tried duct taping 2 toof brushes together? I think I might try that. Double up on all that hot cleaning action.
  25. I love brushing my teef actually. 2 Cavities total in my whole life.
