@Jasper_div @nates_motel 1UZ would be much easier and cheaper to get.

@nates_motel 2JZ would have been better.

I beg your fucking pardon????

@nates_motel I put a sbc in an 88 4 runner

@_CrotalusAtrox_ Seem pretty common, glad I don’t have to clean that up.

@OneTonScoutII I will never not laugh at a roomba disaster story.

Brother just called me and said his wife took daughter somewhere, younger dog opened the door to their bedroom, proceeded to poop. Then the roomba did its work. I’m howling🤣🤣

That looks bad ass.

@Qubit711 @HappyMotorhead *as the 10 second Camaro not the 2000hp tube chassis cars.

I don’t know exactly what my 0-60 time was exactly, I’d estimate it between the two you sighted. My 60’ time was 1.48 though, I was probably approaching 60mph by 60’ but not quite there. It was fun, several of my friends dads did the real Dallas street racing with 2000+ hp cars. I’m aiming to make my 46 ford similarly quick although heavier being a truck/van on a sierra chassis.

Me every time I pass an Electric Vehicle... HeHe

I’d just say that the cost of the equipment is a bad argument/sales pitch. You’re paying for a professional service that undoubtedly will be done better than you or your cousin. The work continues after the photo shoot and travel is over, they have editing still where they make you look better. I’m not a photographer but I get what you are paying for. The uber analogy would be like hiring an uber driver to drive for your F1 team.

@AKODTV @TruckerDanUSA I knew of him from Collins brothers jeeps long before I saw him on tv

@TruckerDanUSA Dennis knows his jeeps that’s for sure 🤠

Dennis Collin’s on the hunt for a rare 1980 Jeep Laredo, and he ends up buying not only a Jeep!

What’s your quarter mile time? They’re certainly quick, the quickest things commonly daily’d but not quicker than the fast cars. Just out of high school my daily ran 10.32 at 136 mph. 20 some years later only a couple teslas outrun that, the two plaid models right? There’s a bunch of people around here with 6 second big tires cars sitting in their shops.

@HappyMotorhead LOL! BS I was driving home today in my EV and blew away a mustang away trying to race me. Silent but deadly. When I hit 60 it looked like he just was taking off back there 🤣

@Punished_Sausig I think I can turn mid 10s with an estimated 5,000 lbs including me. Maybe 5100 with me and fuel. Plus hellcat blower, cam and stall.

@Punished_Sausig And AWD burnouts

My dad has a tesla and yea, its faster than my car, but my car makes cool noises :3

@CFieldofDreams @sircalebhammer I think in the areas where you have bears and elk and such crossing the roadways they also use a lot of fencing to funnel them to the overpass. I’ve also heard that many prey animals are reluctant to use tunnels.

@OneTonScoutII @sircalebhammer Maybe it helps in that area, but by how much? Are animals really smart enough to travel a long way to cross the highway...do the woodland creatures communicate there's an overpass miles up the road? I ask with genuine curiosity.

Bro, this state can’t be real

@jumpinjonnydee @Txp_RBI_Xctuxl They’re both good

@Txp_RBI_Xctuxl I’ve never had a Costco hot dog or pizza

This is a deep and abiding truth.

@Atomic_Ferret @FrankBr05713205 I would bet it was based on what they did with the LT5, which was very likely based on a lotus open deck DOHC motor from the 80s that never saw production.

@FrankBr05713205 Cadillac copy Lexus's 1UZ homework? Northstar's got pretty popular in the sandrail crowd for a minute. Fairly light ~300hp V8 that I guess somewhat stayed together if you put headstuds in em.

Here is a cool cut away of a Cadillac Northstar V8 engine. It was an engineering Marvel at the time, but ended up giving Cadillac a big black eye. These engines are powerful, and once touted as one of the smoothest running engines ever made. It featured an aluminum block and cylinder heads with cast-iron cylinder liners and four valves per cylinder. But while its design and performance was very impressive, it became infamous for significant reliability issues most notably head gasket failures. It had head bolts that would stretch and pull out of the aluminum block causing coolant loss and severe overheating. As a technician one of the things I thought odd about this engine was its starter location. The starter was inside the engine under the intake manifold.! The engines can be fixed but it’s a fairly expensive operation. These engines were produced from 1993 to 2011 and was an example although it looked good on paper, in real life It just didn’t work out so good.

@BlizzardArmsLLC @FrankBr05713205 Don’t forget Honda, bmw and Toyota. Also the starters inside the bell housing like Porsche and vw

@FrankBr05713205 Ford can't be the one taking the blame alone on it but the OLD Taurus SHO v8 had some funky starter placement too

@MTL_AL7 @mrrjwilson Yes I’m aware humans vary in size….

@MTL_AL7 @mrrjwilson 2000 steps is 1000 paces….

Because the USA is denominated in miles. There are 640 acres in a square mile. 640 can be divided by 2 easily. A square half mile is 160 acres, a square 1/4 mile is 40 acres, a square 1/8 mile is 10 acres. Nobody in America knows what a kilometer is, let alone a hectare

@MTL_AL7 @mrrjwilson They use metric is the rest of their society. In those things, base 12 is more intuitive than base 10.

@OneTonScoutII @mrrjwilson Yes because they are used to it. Don’t see a problem with that
