    May drive the challenger to Atlanta

    I took the 4.10's out and put a set of 2.94's in that I had lying around. I also drained some of the coolant out, replaced it with straight water, and put a bottle of water wetter in. A month or two ago I took the car for a short jaunt on the interstate, and in the process I whacked it and ran...

    Bottom end of thick main 400 block

    Hi all, Before I left town for Atlanta today I stopped by the machine shop and took some pictures of the 400 block I recently found. Those of you familiar with what the main webbing of most big block chryslers looks like will no doubt notice a difference.

    Bomb drop mission a go!

    I had to run home from Atlanta yesterday, and I have to go back to Atlanta today. Lisa's LH level (some kind of hormone related to ovulation) surged yesterday according to the pee test stick. This means ovulation is imminent, like in the next day or two. The doctor doubled her dose of clomid...

    The autopsy: Prognosis looks good so far

    Sounds paradoxical, doesn't it? I tore down the uber 400 today, and found that indeed the block does have ridiculously thick main webs, just like it should. It appears to be standard bore too. I figured this one had never really been apart when I noticed the fiberglass insulation pad still...

    Sometimes you gotta slap 'em back in check

    The public, that is. Today at work my job was to ride around the yard on the john deere gator with a trailer and ferry people/parts back and forth. Today must have been national transmission day-I was sent to fetch more transmissions than most other parts combined. What happens is if someone...

    I danced a jig underneath a car

    No kidding. The sad part-a 2 door '72 newport came into our yard today, smashed in the rear. I went to check it out, hoping for (another) steel crank 440. I found a 400 2 bbl instead. So, I jumped on a forklift and raised the car about 6 feet in the air. Looking underneath at the driver's...

    Parts smorgasbord, sadness thrown in

    Hi all, I got back to the Atlanta yard today. I haven't been here for about a month, so of course I made my first order of business crusing the yard looking for new old mopars. I found some-a '69 2 door newport with a 383 2 bbl. The only reason I could see for it being in the yard was...

    May be about to grab a deal for real

    Months ago, I sold my stock turbo off my dually to a guy with a failed turbo. Well, this morning he called me and said that the one he bought eventually failed, and it turned out that the engine must have not had good oil pressure, because a rod started knocking at about the same time. So, he...

    In stark contrast to my transmission disappointment...

    http://www.relentlessdiesel.com/media/RCdyno/RC%201132HP.wmv This was done on a stock bottom end. Duramax what? Powerstroke who? 1132 hp is pretty good considering the engine was very audibly sputtering when the nitrous was sprayed. Here is another example-this guy made 1218 hp and...

    I'll have my disappointment supersized, please

    Rather than typing it all out again here, this is a copy/paste from a diesel board of what I found out about my transmission situation with the dually: "I've been thinking about swapping my '98 12v dually to an automatic. After all, you can only shift an nv4500 so fast, especially with a...

    The warbling cats and the farting wife

    Hi all, Gotta drive up to Birmingham this morning to start another week at the pullapart up there. (I make it sound like a chore-I actually really like the job) A few minutes ago I was sitting here at the computer, and Lisa walked into the kitchen. Hearing her approach, the two cats...

    A man's life is almost worthless

    Especially if taken by a woman: http://www.cnn.com/2007/LAW/04/19/winkler.trial/index.html It's that preacher's wife in Tennessee, the one who shot him in the back with a 12 gauge while he slept. They pulled the "she was abused" shit, and it worked again. She can get 3 to 6 years. She shot...

    Virginia tech shootings

    This happened today: http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/04/16/vtech.shooting/index.html One thing that gets me is this: "Madison Van Duyne said she and her classmates in a media writing classwere on "lockdown" in their classrooms. They were huddled in the middle of the classroom, writing stories...

    I learned some facts today from a customer

    I saw that a customer had a BOP bellhousing pattern turbo 400 transmission that he was about to buy. I got to chatting with him about it, and I learned some surprising facts: The turbo 400 is a 4 speed automatic, not a three speed as I and the rest of the world had previously thought. The...

    Weird '78 Monaco

    Hi all, I'm in the Birmingham location today, and an interesting mopar got put out on the yard. It's a '78 monaco, which is a b body. Here's the interesting part: It's a 2 door, with a 400 4 bbl and the COP PACKAGE! It has a 9 1/4 rearend (gears and limited slip status unknown), cop...

    Almost-catastrophe with the forklift today

    I needed to check the fill level of transmission oil in the dually today. Not wanting to fight a jack that doesn't want to raise the weight of the front of the truck (it's over 4000 lbs on the front alone), I fired up the forklift and raised it on up. I then slid jackstands underneath, and...

    As promised, pictures of the 440 challenger

    Hi all, I've been promising pictures of the '74 440 challenger for 2 weeks now. It's about to rain here, but I did a quick wash on the car to knock the obvious dust and pollen off. I got a few pictures before the camera batteries died and it started to rain. The car is put up now, as it...
