Mind if I ask what shop you are at now? Is it still VW, euro-centric? Always looking for your euro shop for watercooled work.

From where and what was the deal. Been eyeing this kit for a while now but have never been able to justify spending the money. A good enough deal my just be enough to justify it.

We are traveling to just north of Dallas (Denton) and the house batteries on the motorhome took a sheet. Looking to replace them when we get to the campground. Need 4 6V. Anyone know a of good place to get good batteries without getting ripped off. I swear most places think they use gold in...

Any other info?

Got to love it. These temporary changes to the map that are actually permanent. That wording right there should enough to open up a lawsuit to overturn Prop 50 if it passes. (Even though the lawsuit wouldn't be successful). I F'n hate this state.

NineLine is putting this shirt out in memory of Charlie. All proceeds going to Turning Point USA. https://www.ninelineapparel.com/collections/matthew510 Such a lost. Supporting where I can.

Went by Westmore today. They didn't have anything like what you are showing. Only option they came up with is a flared pipe like Jersey_Jeff linked. I need to research a little more to make sure I order up the correct flare dia etc. Fun times.

Looks like I get to crawl under this pig again and figure out what turbo is on there. Yeah, I don't thing the original flange had the double back flare. I think it was just single flared. Hope these aren't to expensive. Trying to get the coach put back together so we can sell it for my...

The exhaust pipe on our motorhome has fallen off at the turbo twice now. The first time I just put everything back together and made sure the v-band was nice and tight. This time I pulled the exhaust off the coach and found the it looks like the flare on the exhaust pipe has been worn down/off...

Understood... I can agree with you, not thinking it is finished. I was just suggesting giving dbart some feedback so maybe he can do some iterations and get it finished to your liking. dbart is wicked good in design and has YEARS of experience you can take advantage of (Maybe you have already...

What do you not like about it. Maybe provide him with some input and dbart can hone in on what you are looking for? Just my input. Change can be good but major change can make things worse. I like where dbart is going with this. Fresh look while honoring the legacy.

So I am looking at this as, all this land is "for sale" but are there enough people to actually buy it? Or is this just wishful thinking....funny numbers to "balance" a line on some budget/bill line.

Okay, but then didn't Reagan come in and lay down the law? Or was the taking of the hostages what lead to the current power to come into power? (ie previous Iranian leaders where outsted by the hostage captors?)

For the younger in the group, how did Carter f it up?
