  1. yeah there 2.5 inch rams horn manifolds. there mostly for fitment but they don't flow bad esp if you clean them up. they say there is only one header made that fits this swap and there not a very good design. ill probably make a custom set of headers for it eventually...lol in the next 1-10 years. the heads are vortec truck heads from 96-00 chevy trucks, best flowing factory head Chevy ever put out modified a bit in the spring seats and guides as well as springs and a few other things. to handle a .525 lift camshaft. exaust side ports have a little clean up work done and guide profiled its claimed to be a 400hp engine combo i think its a bit shy of that. have not had it on a dyno and its not totally dialed in yet either. plans include more power.
  2. here are a couple pictures from putting it together, i think it was last winter/spring i put this car together did the engine over the winter then did engine swap in like less than a week. iv still got some stuff to sort out on the car but over all it works really well.
  3. lol yeah still have not messed with getting the tach to read right yet. but im pretty used to what the gauge reads compared to what the real rpm is. 2 extra pulses per revolution throws things off a bit yeah its a small block Chevy currently running vortec heads and a lt4 hot cam.
  4. if that doesn't work here is a drop box link but im not sure how that will work with the forums either https://www.dropbox.com/s/978eikguzqxutnt/jag burnout2.mp4?dl=0
  5. gave her a proper beating....lol i know there is a few guys that like that car here, so here is a sneak peek for just you guys. i think i got this file small enough to upload directly to the forum as its not really a you tube video yet. jag burnout2.mp4
  6. lol i think its pretty safe to say that i will not be making any video's on milking sheep. or milking anything for that mater.
  7. saw this on Facebook and thought it was hilarious.
  8. iv never really noticed a difference based on what position the engine was in. if you had a cam that had valve overlap you could have a pretty big leak out the exhaust if the engine was in overlap on one cyl. typically you wont see valve overlap on a engine that is intended to run on boost though. i wasn't terribly concerned with actual leak down numbers when i filmed this. this was when i was trying to diagnose that chirping sound under boost. it did take a couple mins to bleed down once the air supply was turned off. still currently running that cac ill plan on replacing it probably before too long. it might be repairable too. the leak is where the cores go into the side tanks. could probably be soldered with some aluminum brazing rods.
  9. someone is gonna get hurt around here with all this motorcycle riding going on.............it snowed here yesterday i have not even looked at my motorcycle yet this year....lol
  10. i also did not notice it was friday the 13th till you mentioned it.
  11. nope if a intake valve is open the exhaust valve will be closed, engines that operate on boost wont have any valve overlap so every cyl will be sealed ether at the intake valve or the exhaust valves/rings, there will be some leak down but not enough to matter.
  12. oh man, something seems really wrong with this picture i better start checking the missing persons reports.....lol
  13. that new girlfriend is much to good looking for you, you must have some money or something. wink wink nudge nudge.
  14. for some reason i don't think there is any grass that needs mowing in Montana right now.
  15. i think your want to make it unlisted rather than privet as i think privet you cant link to it. i could be wrong on that. tires are a lot better for pushing snow, moving dirt esp in soft ground mud, tracks are the way to go.
  16. yeah iv gone as low as 80 grit on a old dual rim that was going to end up on a steer, only problem with dropping that low is you have to take a few steps up from there in sanding before you can move up to buffing. where 320 as long as your using a pad/compound that is going to cut hard you can go straight to buffing. if your goal is a mirror Finnish though id probably go to 800 or higher before moving to buffing. once they get past a certain point though your get your end results faster by sanding first than trying to do it all with buffing. me too lol. this winter just doesn't want to seem to quit, someone cursed the other day and told me more of the four letter s word was coming this weekend. song was recorded by my dad using multi track recording so each interment and vocals are all being played by him.
  17. the snow looks ugly but fun video grandbaby seemed entertained. 1840? when i was shopping and bought my 763 bobcat i was looking at a case 1845c as well. they seems to be good skidsters. for getting your video's seen on youtube good descriptions and titles really help. make sure to include key words people are actually searching for or that can be related to other video's on my you tube channel over 60% of my total views come from my video's falling in the suggested category of related video's then about 38% is spread out across home pages subscriptions and other you tube features and about 2% of the total views comes from sharing my video's with you guys here on the forums.
  18. normally just polish on the truck quick touch ups in between but this is how i do it once they get pretty beat up pitted ect.
  19. holly cow, yeah for that price im pretty sure he is still going to have it for a long time. low mile higher hour older truck nice specs, i have a hard time seeing even a equivalent large car Pete/kw bringing that much
  20. why does the Easter bunny hide his eggs? . . . . . . he doesn't want anyone to know he is having a affair with a chicken. happy Easter everyone
  21. yeah i bought a aftermarket radiator and air to air for my fld before i had my mack they both failed within a year. radiator i ended up just repairing charge air cooler i bought another one and sent the old one back, sent them the invoice for getting the radiator repaired never got one red cent back then about 2 years ago i bought a aftermarket ac condenser for the mack and and it failed within 2 weeks started leaking where the mounting tab is welded to the tube end tank. bought a mack ac condenser that is still working perfectly 2 years later. sent the after market one back this time they did at least respond to my inquiry's and claimed improper installation. kinda funny how that is considering i did nothing different installing the Mack one and had no issues. so basically as far as im concerned any claimed warranty with any of the aftermarket manufactures is not worth the paper its written on. i dunno. lol i did use a impact on some of the bolts holding the frame into the truck. guess i must have just felt like using mostly hand tools. there are certainly lots of spots i could have used air. the ac condenser is bolted to the air to air witch is then bolted to the radiator frame on this truck. so you would ether have to pull it all out with a crane or pull the radiator out of the frame with a crane. that would have been a lot of trouble on this truck. esp considering it was a pia to get the bolt holes lined up between the new radiator and the frame outside of the truck. also pretty sure with the original setup i would have to look but i dont think there is access between the air to air and the bolts facing forward between the radiator and the frame. probably a great idea on some trucks pretty sure that wouldn't have worked on this one. ill certainly be keeping that idea in mind if i do one that it looks like it might work though. i didn't disconnect any of the ac lines, just unbolted the condenser from the cooling pack and laid it off to the side.
  22. i cut a v in a 2x6 cut to length to fit under the bulldog put a rag on it and rested the hood on it
