Re: GTAW

The one on the left doesn't look bad at all. The one on the right looks like you may have been moving a little slow and got the metal a little too hot. But it all looks good for no practice.

Re: Anyone watch "Musclecar" on Powerblock?

I thought that the car makers back then had teams that raced their cars in nearly stock form. When they were winning races who cared what the ratings were? If your beating everyone else, the cars are going to sell. Ever heard the saying "win on Sunday, sell on Monday"?

Re: Anyone watch "Musclecar" on Powerblock?

I don't know why they would waste their time either. Its a show however, and sponsors pay for it. Edelbrock gets their name out there to thousands of people. Of course Alex4mula on Old Europe did a head, cam and intake swap on his tpi small block for about an 80ish hp gain. I think he used edelbroc...

Re: Anyone watch "Musclecar" on Powerblock?

There is a replacement for displacement. Its called technology. Oh ok, that's what had me confused, I thought they could apply the same technology to all the new engines regardless of displacement. I knew that smaller engines today are making more power than big engines 40 years ago, but I wasn't a...

Re: Anyone watch "Musclecar" on Powerblock?

I am by no means saying that all this shit is true. Those hp ratings were just something I had seen on that show. I agree that the 455's numbers are pathetic but it's not like there wasn't potential for more, the 442 used more of it's potential I would assume. I've seen you mock the statement "...

Re: Anyone watch "Musclecar" on Powerblock?

I watch that show from time to time. The 442 was supposed to be a factory "built" engine, the 455 was originally a mild build, what's hard to get about the 442 having more power with less displacement under those circumstances? Displacement is hardly a factor in comparing those builds. Tha...

I know what you mean. But for that kind of money you could surely get a c4 could'nt you? Then again, I know some people don't care for c4 corvettes.

Re: What do you guys think of this Fiero?

I don't mean to hate on the seller, but what's the point in giving him a deposit if he is going to sell it out from under you any way? I don't know what the original asking price for that car was but from what I've heard third gen camaros and c4 vettes are pretty cheap and make decent track cars. I'...

Re: Hey turbofag joined the ranks

I would love to enlighten you, however I doubt it's possible, but I will try. How the hell is giving him a positive rating on another forum "supporting" what he did, it isn't, not any more than being his penpal. Hope that cleared that up for you. Next there is lowlux, I was the one who sta...

Re: Hey turbofag joined the ranks

If you stupid fucks think that giving that dumbass positive ratings is "supporting" him, then that must really be a pedo board. Otherwise, how would keeping him on a forum which he has no access to be helping him at all unless it's availing him access to kiddie porn and other pedos? Fierob...

Is it too damned hard for you stupid fucks to understand that giving him +'s wasn't about what he did, it was about keeping cocksuckers like yourselves from gathering people to ban someone.

Re: Suspension engineering forum

This all started when I read that lowering an 88 without making the correct mods would adversly effect the suspension geometry. Then the other day I read what Will said about moving the battery to the front being an unnecessary mod, and 911's aren't balanced, just tuned correctly, that really got me...
