/\ words we have to live by.

I just call them stupid

Stupid to the left of me, stupid to the right...

Spooler · 05-23-2021, 05:38 PM

Just a little info since I am getting to that level.

Spooler · 05-23-2021, 06:22 PM

Well I thought one of my valve stems looked kinda crooked. LOL, Yeap, they fell apart when doing the tire install. New SSR ones have been ordered.

I have posted this before. Start at 13:50 to get the most important part.

I laughed when he said a reliable engine should go 2 yrs before it needs to be gone through. Running around with +1000whp is not cheap. Makes more sense to turn it down when it is not needed. 700 to 750whp for the street is more than enough for street driving.

You run 1000whp, and you are tearing down a motor frequently. Chit breaks faster. Just ask Top Fuel crews when they tear down an engine between runs...

I think you missed my point. That is exactly why I laughed because the folks wanting 1000whp have no idea of the cost of maintenance. I make what I make and I sure won't be running that power all the time.

So true. Sure you can have a 1-2000whp car last on the same block for years. But the maintenance is outrageous

LOL, We're Closed !!!!

I know lots of people read this thread. You can't get away with the crazy things I did when I was young. Never did this though. Please think before you smash the gas. There is a time and place for everything.
