Would love to be doing something but broke my rear end today. Snapped the nose right of the housing of the center section. Its a 9" Ford rear, pretty odd.
Think I will go to an aluminum housing this time. |

Speaking of builds, I am thinking of forgoing the nitrous. I already have all the parts, a full bottle etc.
Car runs correctly now and everything else but Nitrous has like tripled in price over the last 6 months because of the factory explosion. Might just sell it all and boost~ |

in thread humor:
i was showing our 17 and 14 year old some bits under the hood of the car. coolant dangers, dip stick, oil levels, how not to put oil in the dipstick tube, rather pour into cap, etc... the reason for this is my battery went dead on me today, and i needed to change it. so i break out the whole never bridge the two posts as it could electrocute you, etc.. which is ground, why not to let the positive contact any metals. so then i start to remove the battery. ****ing nut on battery post broke loose so fast, my spanner ****ing bridged the posts ![]() ![]()

It takes amps to bite the **** out of you which happens in the coil. If you want to teach them that tell them you have to see if you are getting spark to the plug and stick a screwdriver in the plug wire give it to them, and bump the starter. Boom. Lesson about amperage! ![]() |

thanks for the tip, but i don't know if the boys will ever know what a spark plug is, and after my last demonstration i think they probably trust me even less

Need help figuring out the color of our 2007 Civic, so I can order some touchup paint. I can't locate the color anywhere and I don't see much listed inside the door frame. They literally have like 30+ colors for that model and I can't tell from the online graphics which one it is. Any help.
The plan is to touchup this car in spots, practice wet sanding/polishing down these marks, before attempting similar on the Mustang rock chips. I touched up some spots on the Mustang but some are raised or a bit too spread out and give a funny look on the car. I'd like to try to normalize them somewhat but want practice on the car we don't care about first.

Sooooo.. I did a thing... (ignore the g8)
![]() Moser 9 inch for f body, backing plates, gusseted, 35 spline axles, and my favorite.. wavetrac. Will likely need a new drive shaft, going to go chromoly, and some new wheels bearings to complete it. Brand new, should be in the car next week, no more shit ten bolt! gonna load that ****er up and let er rip! Only thing that sucks is between the iron block 6.0, the 4l80, and the 9 bolt its going to be a bullet proof boat.. methinks she needs boost instead of nitrous ![]() |

And man I am going to wish I had gone your route with a full upgrade but a buddy of mine has a perfectly good center section, same gears etc...and all I can drop into my car for $500 this week and get it back on the road. I think it was a freak deal but I guess we will see. |

I already have headers exhaust blah blah blah so supercharger may make more sense than turbo but god damn are they expensive. Gonna just run it this year and see how it does, I think with all this weight I would be happy with a 12.0 N/A. Thing sounds nasty though :P You will be good for a while I bet on your 3rd member, didn't you say it was a freak thing for it to break in the first place? |
