    found these in roadside ditch

    Chances are that they are on someone's property, and that you could perhaps locate the property owner through your local online GIS mapping which can help identify the property and owner. I would guess that removing the vehicles would be a good service to someone (who may not have the means...

    found these in roadside ditch

    I agree. Looks like typical devastation by a serious flood. I would guess early 60's. Interesting. Should have "ditched cable" so as not end up in a roadside ditch. Lol

    Efi fuel lines help

    You can mount the pump and filter directly inline with one another close to the tank. I think my entire fuel system was about $350, but I was running about 18' in each direction with the braided line.

    Efi fuel lines help

    I just plumbed an old Gran Torino fuel system. I spent quite a bit to do it with cell, pumps, stainless braided lines (supply and return), AN fittings and an Edelbrock filter. The motor is an '02 Lightning 5.4 S/C. I would think you could easily have four high pressure rubber lines (about 4-6"...

    Why Rat Rod Rules rules!

    Everyone's vehicle here looks like crap............and they are PERFECT! Lol. I was just convincing a guy I met yesterday why he should not waste all the money restoring his 56 Chevy pickup. It was all original body (well Patina'd) and on a late model chassis jacked up. Perfect the way it is...

    Weird thing happened last night.

    Only read the first page (always in a hurry). I sold my "crotch rocket" YEARS ago when I finally matured enough to realize that I was putting myself at risk everyday on it. Driving it too fast, running from cops, being an idiot. It took one of my best friends getting killed on his (while...

    Finally caught up with this guy......

    Wow! A 500. Horsepower to weight ratio must be outstanding. I'd be happy with a side draft Toyota 22r in a little bucket. Atleast that's what I've been planning for a few years.

    Hood scoop cause a lean air/fuel condition?

    I checked with Titan. They are out at the moment, but there are plenty of other s on Ebay at the same price, in either blue or red. $167. I really like how fast the gauge reacts to throttle. It's VERY fast, and according to my piggy back fuel system, and it's reading on my laptop, it's very...

    Austin Speed Shop on T.V.

    Now I'm sitting here laughing at the "liqueur sickle" comment myself. I can't believe this stuff comes out when I'm aggravated. Too late out in the shop.

    someone beat me.

    I have three of them (daughters that is). Sometimes I wish my oldest would actually stay moved out. Whether she hates us or not......doesn't matter right now. I'm mad because she moves in and out, posts drinking party pics all over Facebook, she's only 20, and my wife and I do not see eye to eye...

    The best advice I have heard all week.

    Austin Speed Shop on T.V.

    I thought that that's all that's on anymore was reality crap. I'm sick of reality shows. It's not reality where I live. Reality here is unemployment rate sky high, people riding so many scooters on the country mountain roads it looks like Thailand, crime is through the roof, noone in the...

    Hood scoop cause a lean air/fuel condition?

    I think the AFR gauge is always a good idea just so you can fine tune things and get better economy/efficiency/performance. I like the Innovate gauge myself. Pretty affordable as a complete setup, and easy to install. I have been getting mine through Titan motorsports of Jacksonville FL on...

    Hood scoop cause a lean air/fuel condition?

    I'm just glad that I noticed the frame because if my body completely disintegrates before I can finish mine, I now know that my other options really are viable. Lol I guess if you were to build the front of a vehicle like a giant funnel, and go fast enough, maybe you could actually build boost...
