    Household LED Bulb Failure

    We've been in our house 7 years. Most bulbs were already LED when we moved in, and I replaced most of the others that weren't. We have probably 50+ small 'can' lights that are all LED. I've replaced 2 in 7 years. Some of the other LED bulbs don't last nearly as long, but overall far, far...

    Bright Lights, Big city, BIG PROBLEMS.

    Another thing that gets me is the ULTRA bright emergency lights on cop cars, ambulances, etc. The flashing just makes it 100x worse. Driving past one of them is like staring at a strobe light. I'm all for safety, but when I'm blinded to anything else besides your emergency lights, it ain't...

    Sound deadener/insulation recommendations

    I got 1 36 sq ft kit, plus had about 1/2 a box left from a previous project and was able to do floors, doors (partial) and the firewall. If you just want to deaden sound you don't need to cover every sq in of the car. Usually 50% coverage, focusing on the large 'flat' areas that are likely to...

    2025 Corvette C8 ZR1 | How to Engineer a 1064HP Supercar

    I found this video super interesting. Lots of great engineering design insight. Especially fascinating all the tricks they're using to minimize turbo lag.

    Very cool! Those are on the short list of cars I'd love to have one day.

    Cracks in front frame rails under K frame mounting points

    It was MIG. Drilled the ends, ground them out and then a couple passes with MIG, I think it was 0.30 wire.

    Cracks in front frame rails under K frame mounting points

    I went through this exact issue and had a guy come out and weld them up. I've done some basic welding on floor pans and such, but wanted someone with more experience on this job. When he left they looked good as new.

    Need 17 inch X 7 inch steel wheel for spare

    Not that you plan on using it often, but the D-window wheels look good and are affordable. Cragar or Bassett might have what you need. I couldn't find 17x7 but here's a 17x8: https://www.performanceplustire.com/buy-wheels-online/cragar-wheels/342-d-window-gloss-black-w-red-blue-stripe-2/ws:17x8/

    Detroit Muscle Technologies Door Seals & Roof Rail Weatherstrip Good?

    I bought a bunch of seals and similar stuff from DMT for my Charger and everything was great. All of it looked pretty fresh. I've ordered stuff in the past from other vendors that looked like it had been baking on a shelf for years, definitely not the case with DMT's stuff.

    Help me pick a distributor!

    Glad you got it sorted! I have yet to find one downside apart from the cost. My car idles smoother and the unburnt fuel smell is long gone.

    Thanks for the Well Wishers and Prayers from my friends on this Site!

    Wishing you all the best and a speedy recovery!

    Help me pick a distributor!

    I would give Progression a call or email and see if they can help you out. This definitely sounds different to what I saw. Next time I have my car out I'll throw a timing light on it and see what I see.

    Help me pick a distributor!

    If you are saying that the app is showing 35* but the timing light shows 31*, the first thing I would do is set the idle timing in the app to several different values (25*, 28*, 31*, 35*) and for each one see what the timing light says. If you're off by 4* each time then yes it sounds like your...

    Help me pick a distributor!

    I'm not sure it matters too much, the cap is pretty standard, and identical to the MSD Pro Billet distributor that was in there previously, but here's my story: I used ACCEL ceramic 9000 series for a while but had several of them fail. Now I use Taylor brand wires with DEI boots...

    Have a Chocolate Chip Cookie

    R.I.P! I loved those cookies growing up. My family used to get the jumbo bag from Sam's.

    Help me pick a distributor!

    The code is tied to the distributor and can be transferred when sold. I haven't put a bunch of miles on recently, but it fires up every time, there's less unburnt fuel smell, and watching the timing table while it's running is pretty cool. :)
