Flips! You missed Flips.
Good to know your still here, yes back in from the cold somewhat. Age has much to do with that. However Toby Kieth sang a song that might still apply, but now I like hot coffee, a warm blanket, good book, & other old people things at times, vs adrenaline rushes. No matter how they came.
That would be a novelty for sure.
Call it, say, something like 30TC.That would be a novelty for sure.
Wonder of DARPA has thought about that? Could be a game changer for sure. Next time I talk to the huskaviter I'll have to get his opinion.
We’re doing triple loads and not using safeties on guns still
Hope you & he get it all worked out, that's not fun at all..
Stopped doing triplex loads long ago, as I've found the limitations of brass no matter who made it. Also found the limits of 308 brass bases/flash holes using H-380 & 4350 on a 308. Never popped a primer but new heavy brass would never hold a primer again do to max pressure/time limitations. But can still get a 190smk in a 308 to a grand w/less up that a 175smk using varget.
Remember him & gun kid. The one that sticks in my mind are H20man, I called him water boy. I offered him a real deal XM21 to shoot & Frank offered him free entry into the Cup or Bash can't remember which. He had more excuses not to shoot the match than Frank had members at that time. Offered to pick him up in Ga. drive him to Hardrock and supply any weapon of his choice, if he would just shoot the match with live heartbeats from the Hide watching. He tagged me as his stalker, after that.
Cool project, Spray, forced Lungs, or is she going natural? You move that front axle or body?
And Cobra Cutter is still sucking male appendages.
Good “seeing “ you!
I'm back for a few hrs and people are already discussing my virtues.

Know what you mean as I went to buy a 500KW genset to use as a rental and the guy proudly proclaimed he had built the base frame & fuel tank. When I ask about pressure testing the tank before I added fuel so I could load test the set, well lets just say the deal fell apart rather quickly. Good prime mover though 16V71 TIB Detroit w/a Marathon Alternator sporting a shunt trip breaker. His work killed the deal though.
Looks like a very cool project, Love the HEI, you get that from DUI in Tenn? I stripped all the fuel injection & computer carp off my 95 Nissan 4x4 and installed a DUI HEI and a carb from a 170ci ford falcon. Still enjoy that kind of stuff.
You certain that's a turbo 400 ?
Glad to see you here man. Hope it’s been good!
Yea, still teaching resip EPG for Southern Co. every now & then. Only have to travel when they have really dicked something up bad, & they can't use a meter or follow direction. Teaching a friend how to do resip prime movers so he can expand upon tower work he does for them as well. Stopped shooting LR as it just does not blow my skirt anymore. Been doing a lot of subsonic stuff as I see that changing the balance more, if need be. Working/playing in the shop most days still trying to bend the laws of physics as much as I can (or dare) at times. Zero dark thirty finds me on the Radio looking for first hand accounts of world events, vs what the state/msm agenda presenters what me to believe. All in all life is good. Lost a few friends & folks I use to work with, who took the jab of death & some are still are having issues from that brain fart.
Well, I'm sure things are still in flux with the move to TN in October.Wonder of DARPA has thought about that? Could be a game changer for sure. Next time I talk to the huskaviter I'll have to get his opinion.
A few months ago I thought your old employer was giving me the run-around on some parts. Looks like they are just having people issues, like a lot of others now. They finally sent it all less a 4x40x3/16, course the day after I cut one on the lathe, they sent one. One screw that was worth less than 1/10 of the postage. Guess the new move might be better after all. Hey, you have any samples left over, for an old friend?
They would not by the boating or aircraft story? 3X would be a little big, but thinks for the offer.
Thanks, you been doing good?
Ask and ye shall receiveI still say someone needs to develop a .308 bullet in a Creedmoor case.
I was at DT's bedside when he passed. Cancer had taken everything and reduced his body to a shell. I have no shame in telling you I cried like a baby. He and I had traveled many a mile and even spent time blasting a few prairie dog towns.
If I had been there, I would have done the same. The man that won't cry for a friend passing, was never a true friend. I can count all my friends on 1 1/2 hands, all but two would bring their own shovel & lime at 0230 if I ask.
Some of the Jeep CJ, J and SJ series in the late 60's into the late 70's got TH400s and BW transfer cases so maybe that's what @sirhrmechanic is working with. The TH400 bells were cast to conform to the rear bolt patterns of the Chrysler/Jeep blocks. JW Performance also makes adaptor bells for TH400s to mate to Chrysler blocks.
This is all out of Jeep Pickups and Big Wagoneers/Cherokees.
Thanks for the welcome.
Yep, you have a TH400 man'd for a Chrysler/Jeep application....Th400s were installed into everything from Chevy Muscle cars to Ferraris, Jags and nearly everything in between.
The trans builder did his work under the instruction of my engine builder. For stall speed, internals, flex plate, torque converter, etc. They coordinated the details and I trust my engine guy who did the build and coordinated the trans.
