Oh the horror.

I think Rob has been living vicariously through others since his registration on Lateral G back in 2007.

And it probably culminated with him working on the Fab 53 Camaro.

Like the rest of us, Rob sees GW living vicariously through Charlie L. and just thought it was the right thing to do.


And now we can do the same with David Pozzi and that lil Lola. ³

I think I had seen this version in the "Eastwood" catalog. It is made for rolling fender lips while driving

I been told that Matt and Rob both have a thing for the "HellaFlush" movement. Apparently they text back and forth pictures of cars with "HellaFlush" and discuss which ones they would choose.

Some more examples found at a car show in San Diego near Matt.

I didn't meticulously read thorugh the last few pages so ignore me if I'm off base, but if you are planning on running a P/S pump as part of the dry sump pump system, I think you will be disappointed in the P/S action at low engine speeds. The normal P/S pump is spinning faster or at least equal to the front crank speed. Running if off the back of a dry sump pump you are running it quite a bit slower than engine speed, it may result in a lack of assist at low speeds where you need it most.

So I might have mis-understood what you're intending to do, but something to think about.

I forgive you for not reading more diligently. Maybe the picture of the Tandem it isn't obvious that the PS pump I intend to use is a pulley driven style so I can tailor the pump speed as needed.

The Waterman pump is rated to 17000 rpm so I don't need to worry about over revving it.

You just can't trust a secret with anyone these days.

Thanks Dave You better put additional security on that car while it is away from home. Otherwise you never know who may be wrenching on it.

Rob, you shoulda just got one of these:

I'm liking the falcon. Brett only keeps cheap beer @ the house or he wisely hides the good stuff. Not sure which is true but after him rolling me under the bus with that picture I'm starting to lean one direction.

Come on man, you need to to a better job of keeping up appearances around here. First all the Chevy love, and next I bet you'll be posting up pictures of wide tires on skinny wheels.

the correct response (from a Ford person, which you claim to be) to the picture of you working on the Camaro is that Ford gear heads have to work on Chevy's because they don't ever have anything to fix on their Fords.

Matt

Are you coming out of the closet and admitting you true Mustang love?

Here are a couple of pictures you should like.

That would be like you admitting you love Chevys. Think about it...
