    Followed what appeared to be an AMC Spirit back into town this evening. I think it was definitely possessed by some type of spirit. Freaking thing was shooting random flames out the tail pipe!

    That 477 & 534’s were decent engines. I pulled a 477 out this Louisville and replaced it with a 3208 Cat, using the same original twin stick setup. Before the 477 started using oil and fouling plugs, it would outpull the caterpillar 3 to 1....!! E1488410-DC02-4DAD-B979-AA2F955811CE.jpeg

    What is the difference between feeding an engine cold air versus hot air? Performance wise?

    Cold air is more dense. More oxygen molecules means more fuel can be burnt. More powa!

    Speaking of rare old cars, anybody ever see one of these in real life?

    Followed a neon green one through a few intersections in Winnipeg a few years ago. Estimated that less than 1,200 are left.
