In answer to the question about the shocks... Yes you can run them 90 or straight up just usually that will limit the amont of travel you have and they may bottom out.. running them at an angle looks better, gives you more travel, and reduces the harshness of the shock making them last longer... in case you wanted to know.. that is what the Monroe man told me at the dealership a long time ago when I was looking for shocks for mine..

It's a power trip they get and then impose their personal morals and ethics on others.... yup! just a good old fashion abuse of "power".

Nah not a power trip, if you wanna see one though I would be happy to oblige. We never filter as that ruins a community and doesn't allow the information to be spread. Removing provocative pictures is a community wide decision that was made many years ago to keep the forum readable with kids around. It's been a long standing policy to keep the sites family friendly due to many guys on here reading the site with their kids to get them into the hobby. Not to mention there are many children who actively read and post here. If you have an issue with policy please take it t PM and I would be happy to discuss the reasons as soon as you return from your vacation.

This thread will remain locked until I can be given a reason to re open it. I cannot believe the lack of respect for the site and its staff displayed here. We are all part of the same community. Not everyone is gonna like the rules but they are here to keep everything going smoothly. There are policies and reasons or things being the way they are to keep this place as cool as it is. sorry if you guys feel they are out of line, they ahve however been in place longer than you guys have been here.

Been busy doin this 390 F*RD motor to put in a 73 F-250. When my hand gets better I'll have to get into some heavy duty and dirty work.

That intake manifold was so heavy I had to use the lift to lower in onto the engine not to damage the gaskets. When I was younger it was tough also. I had to climb in the engine compartment and straddle the engine to lower it. Man they are heavy,

BTW I did this before my operation.

Thanks the hand is doing OK. It got a little swollen and hurts now. I was doing too much with it, so now I'm just chill'en, and doing nothing until it heals. I can't wait.

Seen that video before Dave. That guy is NUTZ. :uhmk::uhmk::uhmk:

You make good use of those shopping karts. Did'nt you make a engine stand out of one? Engine looks better than new.

Yes I want to put some small wheels on the basket. Here's the one I made into a engine and transmission stand. It works perfect. :metal:
