IHADAV8.com - Turbo Buick Tech, and Nonsense

• TexasT: I imagine the EPA is just hitting the low hanging fruit. Easy pickins for some cash generation.

• TexasT: [link] as if anyone buying these types of vehicles cares about the gas mileage.

• Forzfed: I'm glad we don't have to put up with the crap the EPA puts on you guys.  I love riding my smokey 2 stroke!
  June 22 2021, 11:34:29 AM
• Forzfed: It's funny because my cousin live in Cali for years and the state would ticket out of State cars for EPA violations yet there are all these beaters pumping out smoke that never gets pulled over.
  June 22 2021, 11:35:48 AM
• Forzfed: Because they don't want to target the poor!
  June 22 2021, 11:36:13 AM
• nocooler: The sad thing is - Motorsports is such a small percentage of the emissions picture.

• Steve Wood: Politics demand that one goes after the weak and not the strong.  It's the old search for the guilty and punish the innocent routine.

• nocooler: Happy 4th of July everyone!

• Steve Wood: Thanks Jeremy!

• nocooler: [link] - This a great video breaking down Volumetric efficiency and how it applies to tuning

• Steve Wood: On Engine Masters last year  Season 5 Episode 4, I believe they did an interesting comparison between iron heads and aluminum heads.  Their results and theories were pretty much opposite from what I read in magazines.

• daveismissing: Is there a commonly available GNX type rear suspension setup
  July 16 2021, 07:47:29 PM
• nocooler: For a gbody or in general? 3rd and 4h gen fbodys were torque arm suspension as well

  July 16 2021, 09:04:48 PM
• Steve Wood: dave, was not the zddp guy selling one?
  July 18 2021, 01:00:59 PM
• daveismissing: I thought they had done a run of repros but those were no longer on anyone's shelves, I could be wrong. Wonder why that never became a natural progression for car owners that wanted to add performance
  July 21 2021, 09:51:00 PM
• Steve Wood: too much money for what it provided
  July 21 2021, 10:06:11 PM
• nocooler: Wow - they are giving a wally to the winner of dig or die, NHRA is seeing the movement.
  July 24 2021, 11:22:17 PM
• Steve Wood: Jeremy, I think the high end of NHRA has moved out of the dreams and aspiration of the average guy on the street.  It's hard to identify with Top Fuel, Funny, or ProStock anymore.  They have to find something that the average guy can relate tol

• TexasT: Same happened to nascar. When it turns to a cubic money d!c? Measuring contest us commoners loose interest.
  July 27 2021, 02:29:34 PM
• daveismissing: I'm with Earl NO "Nattys". Also this whole "brothers" thing doesn't work for for me
  July 27 2021, 05:53:16 PM
• TexasT: I giggled at that post. What about a "nash"? hahaha

• nocooler: This is how you build a drag car - in case you didn't know, [link]

• Steve Wood: not sure what I just watched but the comments were good!
  August 31 2021, 01:29:32 PM
• nocooler: I was laughing when he was backing up and it kept crab walking. Looked like the rear end had 3-4" of side to side travel under the car. Some people just shouldn't build cars......
  September 01 2021, 09:11:46 AM
• Steve Wood: Yep, I wondered why the car was wandering all over the place.  Looked like me backing into my carport while ago
  September 01 2021, 04:47:20 PM
• Forzfed: So, you need a body and suspension lift to go fast?
  September 04 2021, 02:37:57 PM
• nocooler: and a prostock hood scoop but no hood!
