The GM Iron Duke 2.5 which became popular in the '80s in their FWD platforms had been sitting outside since the '60s on stacked pallets. It was common to have a brand new vehicle come in with nasty rust in the coolant system.

I use 4X4 only when road conditions demand -- period! I don't go off on trails, mud bogging, and I am building what I want for an ultimate street SUV. BTW, I have a '95 Jeep GC, high compression (10.2:1) 4.6 stroker, and am tuning a stand-alone ECU. Got it running awesome on 87 octane...

How many roaches does it take to change a light bulb? Nobody knows; as soon as the light comes on, they all scatter!

Regardless of what system, PFI/TBI, ignition or not, if you're considering or have already took the plunge on EFI, DIY Auto Tune has some really good articles (and videos) on generic tuning that will probably help.

Some folks are such purists that they MUST split hairs. What you have is certainly rare and unusual. Regardless of how it is currently categorized, I -- for one -- am very interested in seeing what you do with it. I would absolutely love to have had the opportunity to find it as you did, but...

It cannot have "Extra ZDDP For Wear Protection" and also be "API SN/SM/SL". There seems to be a chemical disconnect here. Oh, wait! I think I got it; false advertising somehow!?!

WOW! Guys, we really need to go back to basic electricity and electronics. What does a ballast resistor do? Good question, glad you asked. It was used in the old days because points would ground out the coil for a long time at idle, and less time as RPMs increased. Now for the reflection on...

Looking at ZDDP (zinc) oils and additives, understand that the zinc must be in a colloidal form. Basically, this is a molecule. A molecule will easily flow through any oil filter out there -- Fram, Wix, Amsoil, all of them. There may be an issue where you are using a SN rated oil, which is...

You got me excited! May I suggest that as you start tearing into it, start a thread in the Member's Restorations section. You'll get more views and attention there.

In the early '90s I built a mild 225 for my Duster. Used Comp 252M cam, lifters, and springs. Loved it. In 2000 I built a 440 for my '73 Road Runner, used Comp again and loved it. My daily is a '95 Jeep ZJ with a 4.6 stroker. I used Comp's Rock Crawler cam/lifters and absolutely love it...

58. Just today, now that you ask.

I suggest that only means more check points than any other state, not more drunk drivers.

Some reject the change from AD to CE, as it is considered a rejection of Christ.

Consider taking a silver Sharpie and highlighting the edges of your grill fins. You have the silver front with the flat black background. I've also seen red that looked good, but on yours, I don't think red would fit. Maybe another color?? The all-black grill looks somewhat dull. Just sayin'.

Sewing in a straight line is harder than one would think. Your lines are all spot on! I ain't buyin' this "rookie" BS, you do too good of work.

I hit the "Like" button, but it was so inadequate! I fell absolutely in love with the then cheap FWD '80s turbo cars after a family tradgedy in the early 2000's when I had to part with our '65 Imperial Crown sedan (22k original miles), '70 Gold Duster, '71 Demon, and my beloved '73 BB 4-speed...

Chrysler TC by Maserati, particularly the 501 with the 5-speed and Cosworth engine. '91-'92 Spirit R/T and '92-'93 IROC R/T with the Lotus engine. Numbered Shelby cars/trucks. Rampage/Scamp.

My wife did some digging and found where Elon is partnering with Ford to bolster their EV program: https://www.newsweek.com/elon-musk-ford-ceo-make-electric-vehicle-announcements-twitter-1802736 https://www.thestreet.com/automotive/elon-musk-gave-ford-huge-gift

No, actually. I saw the facebook post and decided to do a search of what was out there in support and opposition. The fact that there was at least one source (CNA) to support it, I linked the article. My main point was actually in my second post, where someone competent (perhaps like Musk)...

With Elon's Midas Touch, he could keep Tesla exclusively EV while allowing the domestic company to evolve organically. This means embracing the petrol engine platforms for now. I would expect quality to improve, stocks to sky rocket, and prices to actually come down. With that said, I wish he...
