A Discussion On Street Ignition Systems For Classics, Cruisers And Daily Driver Performance Cars
We take a look at all of the popular and common ignition options for stock to mildly modified street oriented engines and discuss their best applications as well as pros and cons.
Points and Point eliminator conversions, HEI systems including Duraspark, the differences between OEM parts and current aftermarket options and some of the oddball things that happen that can leave you stranded or at worst, destroy your engine.

Fighting The System With Old World Tech - You Vill "CONTROL' Nusink And You Vill Be Happy
Просмотров 51 тыс.12 часов назад
They say that in the future, you'll own nothing and be happy about it, but in actuality, that ship has already sailed. It's the ability to be autonomous and control your own movements that is really at stake here, and the battle is being lost every day in countless different ways. By promoting archaic technologies and systems on this channel the way we do, it appears that we are just being sens...
Found On Road Dead In My Dodge - Electronic Points Conversion Screws The Pooch
Просмотров 34 тыс.19 часов назад
After years of bad mouthing all sorts of electronic "upgrades" for classic cars, we decided last year to give the ever popular Pertronix points conversion a fair shake by installing a new unit in our 67 Charger. All was well with the unit performing flawlessly for several hundred miles, when out of the blue it had a meltdown as we were leaving a Power Tour venue.
The Mission Improbable Jeep XJ Smashes Through A Barrier...And Then We Punk Out

Getting the 4.0 in our 96 XJ to spit out respectable seat of the pants power has been almost too easy, but getting any of it to the ground is another story. This time around we hit the track with some fresh bargain basement Chinatown Grip Boys and was able to walk her off the line to an all time best pass...and then reality hit and we ended the party early.

I Impulse Buy An XB1200X Buell Ulysses And Now I Don't Know How I Ever Lived Without One

Long before the Harley Davidson Pan America was even an idea, the Motor Company had a high power, full tilt, road touring Enduro in the form of the Buell Ulysses. A bike we've been aware of for decades but never made the list of bikes we needed to own...and then this thing popped up. The right bike at the right price at just the right time, so we dove in and snagged it The only downside is that...

    Its time for the MECHANICS to take over the industry. The dealerships are about to receive the karma it sent out. Now they are trying to sell people car repair insurance. Its alm thievery. I didn't realize how abusive they were to their technicians. Its disgusting. As a customer, i would rather pay a mechanic what they are worth for a job well done than to screw them over.

    there was even more flat tappet small block chevys produced. I swear that there's more obs chevy trucks on my towns' roads than there is 2020-present day chevys. I do currently run Rotella T5 15-40 in my daily (1990 c1500), but I have ran GTX conventional and mobil1 synthetic some. I still put 70 miles a day on this truck. Approximately 900,000 miles to date. On my second engine and my second transmission. Original motor went to 750,000 miles and still ran, but just burned too much oil. Flat tappets are very robust.

    #ThanksForTheMemories ... Tony, I was born in 1957, first car in 1973 was a 1967 6 cylinder Mustang with 3 on the floor, I was a terrible mechanic, but my brother in law was messing with 57 GTOs in my garage, so I was just on the edges. Just watched your video, from 4 years ago, when on a 40 degree night you were pushing a 318, up & down the strip malls & storage units, you pushed it too hard, I'll watch the repair video next, I'm new to watching your stuff, BUT THIS ONE is my absolute favorite so far, brought me right back to 1973 #ThanksForTheMemories The link is to that video of yours from 4 years ago.

    Years ago, I had a 1986 Mustang GT hatchback 5.0 auto, 3.27 gears. Only mods were a shift kit, under bumper ram air, 13-degree timing, an MSD coil and 6A box with the plug in wire set up. At the track, it would go consistent 14.90 to 15.0 at 87 to 89 mph with 2.10 60-foot times. One time, I decided to unplug the MSD to see how much slower the car would go. Next pass, 2.07 60-foot time, 14.89 at 89.77 mph. That being said, hot ignitions are good for high power engines. More stock engines, not so much.

    "The money was nice, but that's not why I did it..." Not everyone is independently wealthy, most mechanics are in it for the money, doesn't make them a bad person, just means they have bills to pay, rent to make, they're probably a father putting food on the table for their kids. In fact you could make a good argument that amateur mechanics doing the work for free are taking the crust away from a needy family.

    I just saw a video today, a car kept blowing the fuel pump fuse. they pulled the fuel pump and the wires were completely burnt to a crisp and exposed and shorted. it's amazing how safe a modern fuel tank is. can have electrical wires literally burning inside the fuel tank and nothing more happens.

    I just came across this. I’m a MoPar fan and have worked with GREG RAGER with various MoPar publications. I co-authored (with ED SANOW) DODGE, PLYMOUTH & CHRYSLER POLICE CARS 1956->1978 and the sequel covering 1979->1994. Couple MoPar stories: I live in Southern California. Some years back there was a speed shop in our community. The owners of the speed shop parked a Plymouth Road Runner behind the shop. One night the RR was stolen. The police was notified. Weeks later the owners of the speed shop saw their stolen RR at SPRING FLING (THE MoPar show of the West Coast). “Hello LAPD???” I’m a retired police officer. In the late 1980’s my assigned department car was a Dodge Diplomat. The Dip had a lot of miles on and it began to slip going into 3rd gear. I suggested to my bosses that a transmission service was warranted. My bosses “round-filed” my maintenance request. I went to the auto shop foreman (A Chevy guy) and related my problems. He said unless Administration okays my request, nothing could be done. A couple of weeks later, the shop foreman flagged me down asking how the transmission was holding up in my Dodge. I told him on low speed patrol I’d lock the transmission in the “2” position and pretend I’m driving a Chevrolet with PowerGlide. “Ooh, that’s cold!” (Tranny eventually Grenaded) If you want to swap more MoPar stories, my e-mail is: pfmteched@yahoo.com John Bellah “

    So now you're trying to say I cant install wires and a switch for headlights on a 2020 car? Or figure out a way to put cranks on the windows? I dont think I have the background credentials you do, but I do know I'm smarter than that. I hope you are not grifting, but it seems like you are. Fear tactics and flat earth gibberish is what I'm hearing here. If we couldnt buy points or HEI's, Carbs, etc.. how many ppl do you really think can build any of those. I dont think I could build an HEI system, buy maybe fab up some points. Do you really think that one day we couldnt afford HEI module? and dont you think that go for the points systems as well? Someone will make them, they always have. You can still get new ignitions for old af tractors. Someone will make them.

    I have to disagree. if you own a van, I come along and tell you to pay for you to use your van, does that now mean I own it, or does that make a criminal? Taxes are theft, nothing to do with ownership of a house or a car. They will steal your house if you dont give them their protection monies. Has nothing to do with owns what.
