A little bummed today :(

I actually thought you were here crying because Team Cocky OWNED last night....


heh



BTW, we shot a pretty good show today.  I had an engine building contest between Dave and a partner and Sam and a partner.  I also had Al Uncer Jr. there to referee the match.  It was pretty fun.  I bet it only took them about 20-25 minutes to build the thing.  And damn did that thing rock.  It was just an engine on a stand with just short headers on it.  Monster sound.  It sounded like two drag cars on the set, freaking loud as hell.  It should end up being a fun show.  Much more along my style of shooting.  Fast paced...

As far as needing new pistons, heh...  Sucks to be you bro..  Thank God you have another car...

Don\'t feel bad luckee, wait about 2 months and you\'ll get to see a thread by me talking about how much of an idiot I am.  I\'ll be intalling a nitrous kit (probably a 75 shot wet kit), and I have a horrible feeling about it.  I can just see myself not connecting the extra fuel injector, and running lean on the track....and walking home.

Just don\'t forget to prime the nitrous by injecting a little with the engine off, then firing the engine up.

Oh, I love that sound.

I know I\'m not a engineer so dont make fun of me, but can\'t you buy new pistons?  If your talking about the holes (lol) how can you bust those?

At the least it will be $450 for new pistons...thats if the block doesnt need to be refreshed. I have a spare block in excellent condition though. I just dont want to take it apart. It is basically a back up in case of SERIOUS damage.

Vivi..of course I can...but that doesnt mean that is the end of my problem. I have to find out if it was mechanical or if I just took too much fuel away. Either way, I dont have the moeny for new pistons now :( Stock or aftermarket pistons can easily be destroyed vivi.

little story about being dumb with cars, there was a guy at the track and he had a car with a screwed up nitrous solinoid, he did a run and afterwards he turned off his car.  The screwed up solinoid stayed open and kept spraying.  Then when he went to start his car he blew up his engine in front of everyone.  And by blow up, I mean he blew the muffler clean off, blew his turbo, put a hole through his hood, launched his T-Body through the hood, it was nasty.

Dude, it\'s huge.  We accidently did what I wrote.  We sprayed a little nitrous to test it.  We even waited for quite a while and even opened up the intake to let it breathe.  There was still some in there and since it wasn\'t mixed with gas, it was straight NOS, it blue the vaccuum lines off.  It was a loud bang.  Couldn\'t imagine what would happen if we had a real amount in it.

I actually havent had a chance to do anything else..I have been busy at work and havent had time to do anything personal. After hours I just have been wanting to go home, shower, have a berr, surf the net..eat and goto sleep.

I *think* the rest of the week will allow me a little time to work on it during business hours..but if not..I think Im going to do so during the weekend.
