Re: what did you get done 5/30/11 memorial day edition

Finished up the cooling system re-vamp on the dually (cleaned/pressure checked radiator, all new hoses, new t-stat, & water pump). I also removed the hot-air set-up to the air cleaner as it apparently is dead & no longer allowed any outside air to get to the TB once the motor was @ operating temp. Jury is still out on if this solves the 'missing coolant' issue.

Cleaned the flooded garage on Friday & replaced a failed water heater. Still have another to do that's upstairs (preventative measure).

Picked up my brake lines for project 'Recycle' Sat morning. They're plated in black zinc now. I also fabbed up the poster board template for my rear cab tunnel (req'd to clear a 1pc d.shaft). Hope to get the template transferred over to some steel today....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
