Older thread...... let it go.

Very nice, scenic drive, cool. Love the footage you have been posting lately:).

Very nice work!!

Nice trouble shooting, sorry you found a faulty new one. Rpm while cranking is below 1000. I think it is around 500.

Umm out side of taking them off and putting on new ones, I would suggest going with gator belts. Unbelievable quiet. Also ditch the clutch fan and put in an electric. Once again quiet and easier to replace belts. The nut on the idler pulleys have to be loosen before you can move them. How is that?

Change them with new ones. That is my stong advice to you.

Good point! This came from my mom, figured I'd pass it along.

Congrats!!

Ya know looking at this more carefully, is it real?

Subject: Math question Math Question A Backhoe weighing 8 tons is on top of a flatbed trailer and heading east on Interstate 70 near Hays, Kansas. The extended shovel arm is made of hardened refined steel and the approaching overpass is made of commercial-grade concrete, reinforced with 1 1/2 inch steel rebar spaced at 6 inch intervals in a criss-cross pattern layered at 1 foot vertical spacing. Solve: When the shovel arm hits the overpass, how fast do you have to be going to slice the bridge in half?? (Assume no effect for headwind and no braking by the driver...) Extra Credit: Solve for the time and distance required for the entire rig to come to a complete stop after hitting the overpass at the speed calculated above. Yes, you can neglect friction. I couldn't solve it either......but who cares; the pictures are great!

Fixed is the only way to go. You can always re-mortage to a new fixed rate if they go down. It will cost you some up front, but it is soooo worth it in the life of the loan. The fed may ajust the prime interest rate to 0% WOW! If the banks follow there rate to you may go as low as 5%. A point different could mean 10's of thousands of dollars based on the loan size and longevity. Check it out and do it if this happens, probley won't see that low again in 10-20 years. (contignent on a few things.)

Drill a hole in the top of an old cap, and see where your alingment really is!

Spreading your "endowed member" around??!!

71k, I would think that the rust must not be tooo bad?

I was thinking straight down starting at your feet into a shallow hole. You could also throw it straight 0 deg. and low on the horizontal axis, like a bowling ball.

Appox, 2.65 reg. averaged, spokane wa. I will add this, the price of gas is not nationally following the crud prices down as quickly. Hummmmmm.

This is why I will ask to talk to one of the engineers on a specific product. If I can understand how something works, it is easier to make a judgment call. One thing I've noticed, the engineers typically just tell you how it is, even points of a competitor that may be better. Even in any store, if I get some one telling me to go somewhere else for any given product cause it's better for my application, I typically become very loyal to that particular store! (the one with the advice) With that being said, I'm now personally struggling with people that don't understand my industry. You meet with someone and if you don't look the part, what you say dose not seem to mean squat!! Ohhhh I wish for the days of fellows started from the ground up, not someone that walked into a decision making position right out of collage. NOT ALL ARE THAT WAY, JUST TOOO MANY!! As for Aux, Heads of companies that manage well should always pay close attention to all levels of his company. If someone new is brought in and quality, loyal employees start complaining, new guy will be checked out carefully and in private. As for cruddy employees complaining, maybe they will quite and I can bring in quality ones to help the good employees.

NO!

I can help with one, stick on weights inside, the inner lip.

Your car is coming along quickly and great! Keep us posted:)

Heehee. However I know less them him on this subject, but I do understand the overall conversation.

Ya know, looking closer now, looks like the key way was lined up. So is that the key sticking out? How did that happen. (not the inpact story, but the why?)

It can also do this to a balencer: Heehee.... Sorry can't resist. When I screw up I always try to get some laughs out of it, other wise it's a total loss.

What kinda hp numbers are you triing to achieve, and what will you do with the car?
