    Has anybody asked him a question on Ebay in regards to his fine mechanical skills? I'm tempted, but would hate to be the 20th person to ask about.


    19th yeah, but not 20th.

    Go back 30 or so posts. He bought the car like that and didn't know how it worked so he just left it alone. The guy he bought it from is dummy 1 and the guy selling it now is dummy 2.

    Otherwise it looks like a pretty nice car.

    Are those ProCar seats? I was thinking about swapping out my bench seat for those. Do you think they will look ok?

    You guys have all missed the point. It's actually an after-burner, and here's how it works; the rush of cold air passing by that line that's hooked up to the breather creates a vacuum which sucks out the wasted and unwanted blow-by gasses (Bernouli's theorum) and then this combustible gas mixture is ignited by that window switch which is hooked up to a spark plug that's been stategically bolted into the exhaust. Plus a vacuum is created in the crankcase which results in an almost friction-free environment so the crankshaft can spin up faster, and not as much oil will get past the rings. Not to mention gas and air is getting sucked in so much faster because of this same vacuum, resulting in a better fuel burn. The only problem that the owner probably found with this set up is that only the wheel on the driver's side will spin, and in order to get the other one to spin he'd need the same set up for the other bank. So he was probably out looking for a cold air intake for the other bank, but couldn't find a heat sink for the passenger's side in the wreckers, and in order to drown his sorrows at his lack of success he decided to buy a case of Heineken with the money he had so carefully squirrelled away for this project...

    See? There's an explanation for everthing; you just have to think along with the job...and yeah, I'm at work and have nothing else to do...:laugh:

    No, I mean they hacked into my email account. And, spammed every contact in my email; professional, family, friends, everybody. Not only that, But they changed my password, so I couldn't get into my own email! I had to contact the provider lock down my email, and, convince them that I was the originator of the email account so they would allow me in to change my password.

    Air is forced into the tube by the engine fan, then exponentially increases exhaust velocity. In the end you get better scavengine than the finest headers and a bit of thrust out of the tail pipe
