I've done this a bit as well.... only 235/75-15s in place of 205/70-15s though, nowhere near as dramatic.

i wish I actually had one of those calibrations, but those cars have probably long since been turned into soup cans.

when did you get that PM? I banned Kerry on the 21st.

my yahoo account does this occasionally..... i'm thinking it is a server-side issue considering the password a hacker would need to produce to get into my account.

if you know the weight and dimensions already, it only takes ~5 minutes for a USPS quote.

most of the people that have cracked out prices tend to be going off of NADA pricing, which is crazy at times.

i like the direction those headers are going!

i imagine the veyron W16 would still have vast amounts of empty space under the hood.

two six cylinders? could probably still be done with relative ease.

i always thought it was hilarious when the hood of my father's 70 monte carlo was open..... if there were ever a GM car that could have justified more than 8 cylinders, that was it.

that sums up my feelings on at least one engine that is oh so popular to swap in the FWD world. luckily, they tend to thin their own herd with neverending BBQs.

i wonder how they would do with a modern 6 speed auto/manual? they don't look to be very rev-happy, but if they can make the torque needed, that won't be too much of an issue.

9.78:1 1st gear on the 8 speed?1/1?

i've been in trucks with creeper gears before, but that is something else.

i know comparing consumer trucks with something like a 2.5 ton truck is kind of a skewed comparison, but a 5 speed was available that far back?

maybe then they wouldn't need to pull their own refueling station behind them?

confident, just broke.

i would put a dollar on a GM 60V6, probably a 3400 or 3500.

bent 6?

Riker seems to have taken after Kirk in that aspect....

i'm told WD-40 does a good job of removing paint without causing damage to the finish underneath/around it.

yeah, i wouldn't be too happy about re-engineering something marketed as bolt-on to that degree..... let alone for the cost of it and the complete disregard for metal shavings in the vacuum plenum.

i'm not saying i would ever want to make one of my personal vehicles look like that, but i sure wouldn't mind driving it for a little while.

i know there has always been a free version, has a couple of limitations(from what i remember, board size and layer count).

a pro license would be nice, but i have yet to exceed the capabilities...

same basic design to either. go with your gut.

that's how my wife had hers removed.... she tends to have issues with random, minor infections from where they cut at the navel, but that seems like a better compromise.
