@slapoutz I find this funny also. The Challenger was a great car for it's era. Engineers didn't have super computers chugging away to work everything out. The 340 was a great engine for it's time also. Sure we can beat it today. We have more technology to help work out problems. But let eng...

@Koetitoo If you have addictive personality why do anything? A drug is a drug. Don't get tripped up on technical definitions. Your addicted to getting high. It's ok to admit that you cannot use a drug in a recreational fashion. It's ok to just quit getting high and learn to accept yourself a...

Watching these videos makes me wish I would have waited for the G0704. I originally ordered it and waited on back order for 6 months. I eventually canceled the order and the money was spent elsewhere. Later I purchased an X2 and I find myself at the limits of the machine constantly. Hind sigh...

That is some crazy stuff. I wish my trucks would handle a beating like that, I hit a pot hole and its in for an alignment.

These videos really excel. Rather than editing out everything that isn't perfect this guy shows exactly what will work and what will fail. Seeing things from start to finish helps also. Really should have a donation or buy a beer link to help him continue to provide quality videos.

@ljwartuk I am not a professional welder but If your doing things like body work it is perfectly acceptable to grind. If you are building something meant to be structural in nature I would refrain from grinding and rather setup the joint so the welds do not interfere with any other parts of the ...

Well that just lowered my mini-mills self esteem another couple points lol. That is an awesome machine. Great work on the CNC conversion and motor upgrade!

@superhawkn Coolant is typically 50% water and will emulsify making the oil look like a light creamy milk shake. Fuel will thin motor oil, and if you blot it on white paper it will leave a halo. That is clearly sludge.

@HoboSuperstar If you want to get technical paper is made from cellulose pulp. Cellulose pulp, being organic, is in fact constructed from carbon chains. So are you, so is the food you eat. However to say these items are made from carbon is a bit of a broad description. Carbon gaskets are actu...

@1001apollo Sorry. My grandmother died from cancer. So did my grandpa. So did my great grandpa. So did my great grandma. They were all great people. Loving people. However if they taught me anything in life it is that death is a certainty no one can avoid, life is a gift, but to live is div...

That machine makes my Sieg X2 look like a toy. Looks like it performs as well as it looks to.

Those BF series machines are sure nice looking for the price. I have an X2 right now, I originally attempted to get a Grizzly G0704 BF20 style machine but the backorder was ridiculous and gave up. However nice work. Its cool to see what others have created.

I have even seen this happen with dealerships. However at least when the dealership does oil changes they use the right viscosity. I have seen quick lube places throw 10w-30 in pretty much everything that comes through even diesels that require 15w-40. Most cars are fairly simple to change the...

@kyphoscoliosis Yes this is right. The conspiracy junk gets old. Any planet or dwarf planet that could possibly hit us within the next year to a year and a half would be easily visible. Everyone would know about it and no government would have the money, energy, or technology to cover it up.

@Deckardpr It looks nothing like the Masonic G symbol. It looks like a computer power button symbol turned to it's side.

Also have been biten by a brown recluse. Didn't leave much of a scar. However it was bad from the first person point of view. However I would still grab a cup and toss them outdoors rather than kill them.

@13098519 Amputation is rare. More like muscle cramping and abdominal pain. I live in a state that the only medically significant spider is the black widow, and we have a ton of them, it rarely causes death or amputation. In fact humanity seems to coexist with them quite effortlessly. They ra...

Thanks Ronnie. This song hits home for way to many of us anymore.

@23213116 No offense. I actually find German's to be quiet adept in engineering....however why would Hitler be talking about a Ford Mustang? Hitler died in 1945 and the first Ford Mustang rolled off the line in 1964. Obviously it is a parody. They didn't describe car owners as ricers in 1945 ...

@onairda1234 Have anything to actually back this up? Don't get me wrong, I don't even own a BMW and never have. However I have worked on them. The failures I have seen fall right in line with pretty much every other similar car on the road. I have always thought they were well thought out. I...

@Ninjorz Acetone is actually in quite a few injector cleaners. Certainly it dissolves some rubbers and plastics, some quite fiercely to. Alas though you are correct it can cause issues in the long run and really serves no purpose in a car. Acetone has a low caloric value. There is not as much...

Don't get me wrong I like my second gen 24-valve. However the simplicity of the 12-valve always wins when it comes to reliability. If I could build a truck for myself I would probably build a first gen with a 24-valve engine and a P7100 pump. No electronics.

For anyone that is disassembling a Dakota or Durango but plan to reuse the hub/bearing unit and easy way to remove it is to loosen the hubs bolts about 3/4 of the way out and then use a hammer to smack the bolt heads. It will force the hub out of it's bore without distorting it. Then you can re...

Like there isn't enough warnings about motorcycles now the Surgeon General is going to make them put "Warning: Riding aggressively can cause smoldering of tobacco products and cancer" lol just kidding

@buddiiee So go to a junkyard and pull the heads off a 200k+ mile car and have a machine shop test them on your dime to prove your point. I promise you that you will fail. These durable engines didn't have equal ports. I will also promise you until they wore out the engine ran fine and was far...
