    continued again... I wanted to implement this electric smog pump from a Camaro, but I want to use it as a crankcase scavenge pump that will operate only when you floor it and loose manifold vacuum. This will help control oil leaks and add a bit of power by sealing the rings better and...

    continued... This crappy aluminum alternator mounting bracket was broken for who knows how long (apparently it's pretty common), and the metal was too crappy to weld, so I had to fab up a new one. Took some quick measurements and drew up a to-scale pattern I didn't want to deal with...

    YJ 2.5l exhaust manifold

    They're not too expensive new on ebay. I was considering buying one because mine had a few cracks, but I just welded it up instead since I'm planning on building a stainless long tube tri-Y header soon.

    I was back purging with argon since there was a hole to fill at the bend relief; if I hadn't the backside would have sugared because molten metal would have been exposed to atmosphere.

    Here's a project I just finished for my friends work that does landscaping. This is an outdoor griddle for a guys poolside kitchen. I made it entirely out of 10ga 304 stainless in a #4 brushed finish, so it wont rust. The cooking surface is 30" x 36", that's a lot of burgers. Custom made to fit...

    need advice on noisy neighbors.

    Because someone suggesting involving immigration? That's actually the single best solution to the issue if anyone there is in fact in the country illegally (how dare anyone look into that, right? :rolleyes:). I'd say have it check out when the cops are called and reports are filed, it's a good...

    Solar Freaking Panels on Roadways?

    But at that point why not just leave the perfectly fine road alone and put actual, cheaper, many times more efficient, solar panels 200ft to the side of the road, and then in 10-20 years they would pay for themselves right as they start wearing out. Nothing about the whole idea makes any real...
