Every papermill that I've been to with Elliott smelled really bad. Don't know how the locals can stand it. Think because they all work there or have something to do with it.

We are use to the EastWest smells. Our noses are burnt.

Let me give you a little story. A well seasoned technician was rebuilding one of these said engines. Got it all buttoned up and fired the car up. It stopped not long afterwards real quick. He found the problem. He accidently hooked up the washer fluid reservoir to a vacuum line. Well, he bent some more rods. What a do over. He still has the rod hanging in his tool box.

Let me tell you a little story. On my 2nd TransAm. Installing engine #2 into it. Had the engine in and was buttoning everything. My buddy was connecting the vac lines up. He ran the washer fluid line to the carb. Didn't notice it for a couple of weeks. Just wonder why my washer fluid reservoir was empty everytime I looked under the hood. The weather was good, so never had to use it. So one day. I was double checking everything after the rebuild and install. That's when I found the washer line going to the carb. It never hurt the motor.

I remember the “Speed Shop” selling a water injection kit for a 4bbl carb vehicle,,,thinking it was “Moroso” or “Holley”

They still make those kits. Now it's mixed with meth. Seen guys use alcohol instead of water in those kits too. The one guy I know used grain alcohol.

I know about a dude that put Everclear in his redneck-hacked pickup. Said he ran it hard. Lasted 3 days. Better than I could have ever expected :shrug:

I will never have the huevos... but then again my engines last well into the triple digits miles-wise. Why spend money to make them less reliable?

Because boost!!
