    Illegal immigrants finding new jobs...

    By the looks of it, installing an illegal immigrant behind the dashboard is now cheaper than installing the control modules needed to operate the climate control.

    Mark VIII in the top 15% of polluters in CA

    Not only do I have to get a smog check again, I have to go to a TEST ONLY center...reserved for the top 15% of polluting models on the road (not volume weighted). I can understand why they required my old 85 5.0 T-Bird to do this, but why a Mark VIII? They should put swastikas on these places...

    Gored Spanish bullfighter (not for faint of heart!)

    Just saw this news: http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/37413114/ns/sports-other_sports/ It's fairly graphic, but to put it in words in case you're curious, the bull's horn enters from the outside-floor of the guy's mouth and exits out through his teeth/lips.

    C&D funny article stuff

    John Phillips suggested some new rules to boost NASCAR ratings: 1. At any time, fans may throw car batteries, riding mowers, or any object made of glass onto the track. 2. One grandstand must be reserved exclusively for alcoholics. 3. All cars must be capable of 300 mph. 4. A lottery...

    Need amp - which brands are the best

    I'm looking for a well made amp - not cheap Chinese crap. I'm interested in the brands that use good quality parts (caps, mosfets, etc.) and know how to build an amp. Which brands are the best in this respect? I searched the internet for expert reviews and found none.

    25% power increase and double gas mileage...read on

    It's called the Fisher Yoke-arm and my review of it reveals no snake oil here. The theory is mechanically sound and their testing has proven it out. Here's the link: http://www.fishertechnologies.net/index.php I'd love to try this on a 4.6 modular...

    MY turn for car trouble...again

    Symptoms: Missing at idle and low rpms. Drop in low end power. Observations: Driver side copper plugs looked like they had 50k miles on them - rounded terminal and gap at around 0.080". Passenger plugs looked like they had the real 10k miles on them. Also, driver side IMRC seemed to be...

    How does my tranny fluid look to you? (pic)

    Here's a pic of fresh fluid next to what I just drained from my tranny today. The tranny fluid is obviously darker, but fortunately there are no particulates in it. Does the fluid in my tranny looks like it needs to be changed? I only got 10-15K miles out of it.

    Wireless taser is coming

    Our company has just been contracted to build the small mobile battery packs that will go into these things. The taser module is fired at the offender via shotgun, and is activated wirelessly by a switch on the shotgun. I can hear Jesse's sinister giggle from here...

    Evans coolant swap

    Finally switched out the fluid. Was easier than I thought it would be. The only weird part was blowing air into the heater core to get the old coolant out, but it worked. I poured the prep fluid in, which floats the rest of the water out of the system. Worked fairly well. After filling up...
