chris88 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 I have an 86 Blazer, got a little 305 in her now but i want to put a 4 cylendar cummins in it. 4 speed trans, 4 inches of lift, headers and side pipes. She runs pretty good but i would still like to do that swap. I think i'd like to put a pto on it and run an air compressor of the pto. That would be pretty cool to do alsoI also ride dirtbikes, and im an aspiring mechanic so i have a lot of tools to buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

other dog Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 This PC has been draining my wallet lately-I didn't have a local dial up no.here and my unlimited long distance plan was not supposed to be used for business purposes or internet connection,but of course I was doing it-didn't know I wasn't supposed to until EMBARQ said they were going to cut off my long distance.I called them to get a new plan,so I could still get online,and the best they could do was 10 cents A minute for internet use.When I saw A Hughesnet commercial on TV I called them and told them to come on over.It cost $399.99 up front,then $59.99 A month.Pretty expensive,but way cheaper than the 10 cents A minute the phone co.was charging me.When the man came to install it he said my PC was so old and slow,and the something or other was too small,that I really needed A new one to see any benefit from the Hughes system.I'd been wanting A new one anyway,so I went and got A new Compac with Windows Vista Home Premium.I don't have A clue what that actually means,but it sounds more impressive than my old Windows 98. $698.00,plus tax. Then I call the Hughes guy back,and then he told me my payment covered 25' of trench to bury the cable,anything over 25' would be $2.00 and something A foot.So I asked him where he wanted the trench,and dug it myself to save A few bucks.The pole they put the dish on was $125-I thought maybe it was gold,but it looks like a piece of galvanized steel tubing-and it cost $75 more dollars for them to go in the crawl space to run the cable.But it's all up and running now,and works great! Got my phone bill yesterday-$275! Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freightrain Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 my hobbies that drain my wallet is hunting & fishing mostly but also include my other hobby which is C.B. 's I have 3 a Connex330H.P Rebel face w/ noise toys , color changing L.E.D. Light & bigger boards & restistors & set up for fire in the wire & a texas star 660 A 25 Cobra w/ weatherband w/ connex bords & resistors no fire in wire A 29 Cobra w/ Connex Boards , resistors & set up for fire in the wire w/ a 350 Silver eaglelater yall I used to be into CB's. Friend growing up had a nice Cobra 139 wired up with VFO, turner side kick mic, Varmint 850 linear, Moonraker 4 beams. We used to talk everywhere on that thing all night long. I still have my 70's Realistic Navaho base(slightly warmed up) which just died a couple weeks ago. Too expensive to fix so I need to find something new for the house. Got a couple Unidens in other vehicles that are warmed over(20-40 watts). Picked up an old Realistic "phone" style CB for the B model. It's warmed over too(running about 45 watts), and with the headset I figure I might be able to actually HEAR what someone is saying (plus back in the day I though they were cool cause only rich people had car phones-back in the late 70's).
