So it is I.P. time, what else to look at?

[Nero]

I get about the same fuel economy, thats why now I go for power with sustained reliability. My biggest problem is now keeping er cool. Long grades under load it heat soaks bad, but new thermostat seems to help cool er down faster now.

I put a junior on the 88 with a non gated banks.
I could melt the hood at will.

Yes. If you have the turbo installed, it goes around the oil drain.

Thanx bud.
Man oh man... Even stuffing my fone in places not seen daylight in 20 years to take pics, could I see enough to be of help. I guess it will stay a mystery till the Garrett s h i t z the bed and I go in DEEP.
What 1/2" section of it I could see looked solid.
I gotta clean the sweaty grunge off before the add takes over.

 

[Clb]

Fired right up
Eyeball setting landed @7.2 *
I see guys calling out from 5* to 12+* ...
Who's running non i.c. 093,3" downpipe, stock exhaust and what's the timing set at?
Thanx cb
Gunna road test soon.

 

[IDIBRONCO]

I've seen several people say that their trucks with a turbo likes slower timing. I'd leave it right there and see how it does.

 

[Clb]

It does

I'm fixing to make my buddies 9 year olds happy with a road trip/test drive for mpg tomorrow....
Dropping off the old Bultaco

 

[IDIBRONCO]

I didn't realize that Bultaco made mini bikes. I used to have a 1977 Bultaco Pursang Mk2. I rode that thing A LOT. At our local riding spot, I probably put around 1000 miles on that thing in 1st and 2nd gear.

 

[Clb]

I screwed up, it's a Rupp continental...
I was thinking about the "taco" minni bike...
I tried to download the file, till my fone freaked out...

 

[Clb]

12.5 mpg
Cruising the freeway @75

 

[Clb]

Got my seals pretty dang fargin quick from Russ again, he shiped out a set and mr.Mailman actually got em here.
Draggin 9k on the bumper like its not there.
Huuuuuuge difference.
That is all.

Bigger the garage or shop, more shtuff you can cram into it.
Have one shop 30 x 18. It`s the one I work out of most of
the time, but filled up with good stuff.

Then the big shop 40 x 50 and It`s filled up.
Bottom line, Iam a slob, dis organized and lazy with spurts of
energy.
Best thing, I don`t live in suburbia with all the cookie cutter
houses that all look alike with reverse floor plans and HOA`s
where it`s full of Karens. I am the HOA .
With garages way too small. A double with a 1/2 car garage
and one set back from the other. Maybe the 1/2 is for a smart
car?

I need another shop...


Goat

Ya know, I am right there with ya. I have a shop building dating back to 1740. 2 standard bays, maybe 30' deep. 1 large bay, 21' door width, maybe 30'x40', one outdoor bay, half open on 2 sides. Wifey took over the left bay for her wood working business. Middle bay is my woodworking space with my lathe and presses, etc. Big bay is where I do my metal fab and auto work. Outdoor bay is my defunct tiki lounge with a hot tub, fridge, etc (none of this works mind you).

We should start a "show us your shop" thread...
