Yea, I kinda figured it wasn't quite done yet. I've seen enough of your rides to know you wouldn't let a hard start like this be considered a "finished product."

Ken I don't blame you. If I had upwards of 600WHP just a few miles away I'd have an itchy trigger finger too.

Chris can tell you when my Lq4 was being built I was there ALL THE TIME!

Hey Jon, when I'm done here I'm gonna send you a PM about that intake.

Also, I installed headers in my car today!



Did I do it right?

They look a little rusty, but they're TSP 1-7/8 SS LTs. So they should be fine. Maybe Chris can clean em up or something before they go in if they need it.

Also.. I either need a new camera.. or a new person taking pictures cos for some reason 99% of my pics with this camera lately are blurry like this.

We all know you aren't beating my car so you must be talking about smoking me some other way....which is....creepy.



If you had a fast car....we conveniently DO have a track rental next Thu and Friday.

It's still a bad idea...and I disagree with your assessment...lots of things can go bad with no tune...especially if he gets into boost.

As if you didn't know my car is in pieces!!!! Either way we need to get a track rental together when the good air hits. Oh and I like my cheeseburger with just ketchup and mustard and my sweet tea EXTRA sweet!

He did tune it wot fuel and timing. The car has very little timing and running fat I'm sure. I would have just let Chris finish it but I also have a new car that I go months without driving so I'd say I'm stupid.

More importantly...how do you like your crow?

Mine will be broken by then anyways....that RHS block is probably cracking right now.

anyone here know anything about landscaping? I got 2 trees in front of my house and a cardinal likes to build a nest in one. Ruins my quality of life. (I REALLY REALLY hate cardinals..)

I wanna cut down the trees and start over, but I dunno what to put there.

the house is a split foyer so there's a basement window below the living room windows.

Needs to be no maintenance. Just trim it up every now and then.. Don't need something that's gonna get huge either.

Also, just found out that the bung for the wideband the previous owner put in my headers has a pinhole in the weld job into the pipe. So it's gotta be re-done.

This aint gettin done before Fbody. Too much money.

I hate cardinals too. We had two bushes right next to where I parked he would peck the crap out of my mirrors (fighting himself in the mirror).

I eventually put grocery bags over my windows! Haha

Now the bushes are gone and I don't see him anymore, thank goodness.

They land on my mailbox and crap all over it. I will pull a hose out there wash it off 2 days later bird crap all over it again.. I'm thinking about gluing thumb tacks on it where they land.

my neighbor offered to shoot the bird with his 22.

I really don't need to give him a reason to fire a gun in my direction... but I wouldn't feel bad for the bird.

I'm gonna cut that tree down.. and it's gonna be the best feeling ever.. I just gotta figure out what to put in it's place that the bird won't go anywhere near.

Then I can actually use my living room again!
