I come by my mechanical skills and interests naturally. Dad was a car guy even though our family vehicles were mostly pedestrian models - I remember a long line of Ford station wagons. He would talk about his high school car (late 50's) from time to time which was a '55 Crown Vic. He had...
All these happened on my Satellite shortly after putting it back together.
Broken motor mount. Worst part was that it happened when I floored it while making a left turn and the PS return hose pulled off when the engine rocked. Mostly just made a mess under the hood, but losing power steering...
I didn't really have a high school car, but do still have the 1st car I bought. Got it after college in 1987. Everything I drove before that was owned by my parents.

I worked a lot of different jobs from middle school through college - cut grass, cleaned offices, bagged groceries, waiter (at a coffee shop in Japan), roofing, shop work running a drill press or pipe threader, loading trucks, probably a few more. Some lasted a few years while other times I only...
I have a pair of 915 heads that have had some porting work done. It's been a while since I've looked at them, but I think they are non-hp heads that have also had the exhaust valves opened up to hp specs (1.75"). I bought them that way and have never done anything with them.
On our menu for tomorrow night! Can't wait! My mouth is watering just reading this thread lol
My wife also made homemade apple cake and vanilla ice cream today so we'll be eating good this weekend :thumbsup:
80/20 beef is best for burgers as recommended above. Too lean meat has little flavor and they dry out. I like to cook mine on the grill, either gas or charcoal. Usually gas because it's faster and easier. Salt and pepper before cooking. Sear 5 minutes per side on high heat with the lid open...
I have a Chamberlain belt drive - 1/2 hp I think - on a 9' double door with hurricane reinforcement so it's a heavy door. Lifts it without any problems. I had to replace the belt after about 10 yrs - it started skipping because it was eating the teeth off the belt. Not bad for south FL heat...
Unfortunately, I didn't notice the ends weren't beveled until I had the problem otherwise, I would have hit it with the grinder first. I tried to press on, literally, but it broke the piece of pipe I had over the threaded section of the shaft that I was using to press it onto the bushing.
I am going through the front suspension on my 67 Satellite. The threads on one of the LCA pivot shafts looked a bit boogered so I bought new ones from Mancini Racing, p/n MRE2808579. I went to install the. Bushings today and ran into a problem.
Pressing the bushing onto the shaft is usually...
NHRA Gatornationals will be in Gainesville that weekend. Garlits is usually there. We'll be there too.
We went to the museum one year when the races were rained out. Big Daddy was there. My wife and her friend got their picture taken with him. He's a really nice guy. The museum is cool too.
I bought something online from a company in Miami - 2 hrs south of me - just before New Year. Shipped right away via Priority Mail. Tracking showed it arrived at the local distribution center on the 29th then no updates for over a week until tracking showed it was in New Hampshire.
I started...
