Very cool video. Too bad they didn't do it with something other than a 4 banger.

Spark, gas, compression and timing.

Stick with the first two and maybe you can fix sumpin.

 

[Chanda]

Thanks. It's all perfectly clear to me now.

Intake, compression, power and exaust. That was on my test years ago.
Funny when driving we never think about the 1,000 to 5,000 revolutions per minute our engines make or all that is happening while we drive.
After viewing the film it makes ya want to change the oil and filter more often. Or even pat your motor and say, nice job every time you shut it down.

What's wrong with C&D? I don't watch much of it but I enjoy the Powerblock on Saturday mornings on Spike TV.

At least you don't have to wait for someone to make them, you being a woman, you can take care of that yourself

She's pretty good as she is now, but she's stuck with a 3.08 rear. The 3.73s will really help. With such a tall rear end, she's a runner, not a sprinter. :mrgreen:
