Was wondering what happened to you on the weekend

At least the car is back in your hands, so take it easy with the rest of the stuff! Steering wheel can wait...

Sunday came and gone, I had one of the worst hang-overs since my 21st funny being I wasn't event that smashed, guess one's body can only take so much Hunters Gold and Tequila.

There it is, out of his own mouth. I had to drive to his place to confirm he is not stucked under the sx and can get out there to answer his cell phone.
Stupid tequillas

Its not good to wear an engine in under a constan load, you need to vary it....

Flame suit on.....

no one said you cant drive under different loads, drive in the slow lane.

Vlade · Post by **Vlade** » Tue Aug 07, 2007 12:01 pm

Yeah that is difficult to do not drive decently under constant load, but I try to vary it... off the highway it quite easy I just drive normally, heel toe, vary my RPM...

On the highway I constantly shift... try not to keep it in one gear the whole time... but one can only do it so much... It chow's petrol, the BOV also makes me hungry to push it, but I can't... I give it slight boost, but not so much...

BTW: On my very first engine build we drove to Bloem... blew a turbo just outside bloem, Castrol GTX and hills don't mix. That engine was darft anyway... ran 0.7 oversize with 0.5 pistons and 0.75 rings, Danville engine builders... that sparked the idea for the import motor.

Car still not assembled will finish tonight, removing the buildup of dust INSIDE the car took nearly 2 hours.

Sorry about that things were a touch hectic and I forgot to vacuum it.
