    Anyone near Lakehurst, NJ?

    Won an M1008A1 for $840 because there was only one pic of the engine, none of the body. I was wondering if anyone could swing by and take a pic or two of Event Id 3524 — Lot Number 3438.

    Is an EUC transferrable?

    Some states only require a bill of sale to get a title if the vehicle is over a certain age. In Tennessee, my invoice was enough to get a title issued.

    Now how did this happen???

    Re: RE: Re: How do you investigate this??? The bid only goes past 5 pm if someone bids less than 15 minutes from the end of the auction, i.e. if someone place a bid at 4:50 pm, the auction would be extended for until 5:05 p.m. This is as bad as the person who ran up the bids on nearly 20...

    Need More Power From The Chrysler 230 Flathead

    Only 6.7:1? Jeez, no wonder it's a dog. Yes, milling the head to raise the compression to about 9:1 will increase power by quite a bit. You might even go a little lower, say 8.5:1. I don't know much about the engine, but if it has a tiny single barrle carb, it might benefit from a 2 barrel...

    Gas burning to trash burning generators

    I have a little expertise in trash burners. Generally, a trash burner is a fixed location power plant. The trash is burnt to heat a boiler which in turn produces steam to spin a generator or possibly a large chiller. I am pretty sure that most military bases already have incinerators for...

    And the problems never end...

    RE: Vibration. Generally a bad u joint is easy to diagnose. With your foot on the brake just put it in reverse and then drive. If it is a u joint you will hear a distinctive clunk. Block the wheels and put it in neutral. Crawl under the vehicle and try to rotate the driveshaft. If the u...
