  1. How would that do anything, if its your coil that is triggered by the flywheel trigger, and its the coil that stores the energy for your spark plugs? Sounds like its one of those things like those magnets you put around your carburator for better atomization.
  2. Thats fucked up. Thats really really not cool. I don't even think a USPS money order could protect you with an out of country purchase though. I don't know if INTERPOL would bother going after them.
  3. It would be awesome to see those run in real life. My wife thinks I'm stupid, but I'd love to go to a 24 hours of LeMans and stay for the whole thing. I don't have time to keep track of stats n shit of race teams, but I love to watch it when I get the chance, and seeing it in real life is that much better. (Although I'm not going to the NHRA nationals in Vegas in the next month or so because of work My wife is going though. ) And a V8 turning 20,000 rpm is insane. Thats a reciprocating mass tackling turbine speeds.
  4. Shit. I was hoping to see you get that beast finished! Anyway, I guess I'm late to bid on it, or pieces of it.
  5. I think about that just about everytime I see the tank on my banshee. Thinking...how the hell did that guy get that hulking turd out of there?
  6. In my opinion, every single person with a registered ORV in the state of Oregon should be able to file a class action lawsuit against anyone involved in a secret meeting, that involved shutting down public access to off road vehicles. Why the hell else are you paying registration fees? Just for the fuck of it?
  7. You got that right. Being in the machining business, with only 2 people in the shop, phone calls just take up too much time some days. Email is so much better being I can reply when I get to it, rather than talk on a phone in the middle of a job that needs 100% of my attention, that someone is paying me to do. I'd expect nothing more from someone else in a small busy business. As soon as I have the cash, I plan on sending some work his way.
  8. I think you can buy a frame for one of those engines. They're about 100 grand.
  9. I can't stop laughing at that picture lefty. I'm also free of any sinus congestion I might have had being I'm sick. Oh look, sinus congestion all over the front of my shirt.
  10. That thing is called a snap ring. Its split, so you can spread it, and it has holes so you can use snap ring plyers. Wear safety glasses when installing or removing them being they are springy and they will shoot out at you. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/disp...Itemnumber=3316
  11. $14.00 shipped.
  12. I do the same fuckin thing. Telemundo on saturday mornings... TENGO MUCHO GUSTO!
  13. I'm going to save those so I can tell them to my wifes uppity friend the next time I see her. Maybe I'll just text them to her.
  14. Not a problem! Glad it worked out for you.
  15. Good god. If he's into smaller buggies he might like to see the single seater high strung rockets that Larry Short makes. http://www.shortsandcars.com
  16. And I thought Spanish soap operas were confusing.........
  17. So your sig line isn't just a catchy phrase.
  18. What are you gonna do for the other hour and 56 minutes? Thats enough time to watch a movie.
  19. I think its either 12mm or 14mm and copper. You can also pick them up at Lowes, but I'm not too sure they'll be any cheaper than the dealer. Thievin sons of bitches.
  20. He sounds like a great person to be around. People that try to bullshit others are only bullshitting themselves, and to be perfectly blunt I'm actually insulted when someone tries to bullshit me. I'm not an alcoholic, but have grown up around some seriously hardcore alcoholics/addicts, and I've seen alot of stuff that goes on first hand. I've travelled far enough down that road to know that aint the road I want to take. Good job to both of you! It says alot about the people you are.
  21. Yep. I had to build a special spring compressor that will allow me to both evenly compress the spring plus get to the nut without fear of the spring popping out and blowing my head off. Just don't push the rod too far into the shock body. I've heard that can cause them to leak, and you can't rebuild them. When you reassemble use a little blue loc-tite.
  22. Here in Utah you have to get one of the dim wits behind the counter at the DMV to look at your frame, and verify there is no VIN#, then they issue you a stamped state issued id/vin tag that you have to rivet onto the frame, then get them to re inspect it to verify that its on there. Kind of a hassle.
  23. And who does #2 work for?
