    How to improve sound quality with the car stereo ?

    By Kern Dog

    Hello, For years, I let the engine do the singing and the long dead AM radio was just along for the ride. Maybe 10+ years ago, I pulled it and swapped in a Kenwood AM-FM-CD deck with USB port. I used a pair of Kenwood 6 x 9 speakers in the rear deck. For awhile, I had a home made box under the speakers but don't recall if it helped anything. I have small 5" speakers in the lower front kick panels. Local radio reception is not that good, It is clear in some... Read more

    Different Throttle Body with Integrated Idle Air Control?

    By sstory0626

    Hi all, Wondering about TB options for use with standalone. I'm in the middle of a conversion from LH2.2 on a B230F in my 262c, going to a RusEFI unit and am refreshing the wiring harness. Got to thinking about the nasty mess of plumbing under the intake for the IAC and remembering the TB on LT1 GM motors. There's a nice integrated idle speed bypass motor on those and wondered if anyone has found something similar that would work with redblocks? Or is the stock Volvo AIC still the way to go...

    Cats

    By OneWheelPeel

    We have a long dog thread but I haven’t seen one for cats. I’m in a weird position where I would happily live without any animals but I’ll help or feed whichever ones come my way. So I may look like a cat/dog/insert_species_here guy but I’m more of a ‘oh you poor mofo’ guy. Anyway besides the ones in my house that I consider my official cats (loooong story there) I feed a bunch in the neighborhood too and if something is bad enough provide medical intervention or take them indoors. The neat... Read more

    Post up facts and things that hardly anyone knows...... (for entertainment purposes only. NO need to fact check)

    By Kern Dog

    I'll start: Humans developed agriculture around 12,000 years ago. By storing grain, huge numbers of rodents flourished. Cats showed up to eat the rodents, and humans learned that if they took care of the cats, the cats would control the rodents. Therefore, it was the invention of agriculture that led to the domestication of the house cat. The supreme court decided that Tomatoes are a vegetable not a fruit in 1893.

    SSBs (solid-state batteries), LFPs (Lithium iron phosphate) or Na-Ion (Sodium)

    By RamDiver

    Burla said: We now have solid-state batteries = total game changer!!! Future batteries will likely outlast the truck, but the added tech may mess with that. Click to expand... You can't open that can of worms and not expect a discussion. Have any of the battery manufacturers begun large-scale production yet, or are they still working out the bugs? The biggest problem with solid-state batteries may finally be solved Researchers solved the mystery of how soft lithium dendrites crack the hard ceramic inside solid-state batteries, triggering short circuits. The breakthrough could help engineers b…

    Overcharging problem

    By siroadrnr

    Hey!, Im not good at electrical problems, so Im seeking advice...My charging system seems to have been working properly until just this past weekend. I was driving my 70 Roadrunner home from a show/cruise, the ammeter was showing a high charging condition, but was jumping around wildly. I have a Holley Sniper, and the screen showed over 16 volts, jumping as well, to 17, a few spikes to 18....I was getting nervous that the Optima battery would burst. Other than blaming the voltage regulator... Read more

    How to adjust 2F AC belt tension

    By rjs78

    Mine has starting squealing like a banshee (at least this is what I imagine a screaming banshee sounds like.) 3-belt 87 with compressor on passenger side, under alternator, and a tensioner under the compressor. Have been searching (forum, FSMs, SOR diagrams) but can't find the procedure. Found notes about the compressor being solid-mounted, to adjust the tensioner which has reverse-thread. I'm not with the truck this second, but when I last looked this morning, I thought sure there was a... Read more

    Test 78fj40 post

    By Endless40

    Got ahold of a 78 fj40 roller a number of years ago. About ready for paint and reassembly after removing or breaking every single bolt. The top and supports are the biggest problem. Lots of rust on the top support at the rear of body as well as the body panels themselves. Looking for some ideas on how to repair the ends of the rear support. Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Split Tire Brands and Front to Rear Uneven Wear

    By Riley2323

    Anyone else split up their tire purchases with two brands one front and one for rear tires? Any issues? My fronts are nearly at the wear bar with 24K miles. The rear tires have a good 1/4 inch above wear bar….15-20k miles left I’d guess, which leads me to next question is there a drive mode that shifts more power to rear tires more often to avoid the premature front wear or is it just the nature of this beast? I am not that impressed with the Michelins. I have noticed wet grip not that... Read more

    Official Redline SI-1 thread.

    By Burla

    OK sorry forum but I do not believe Corey aka hemi395 or I had ever brought a si-1 thread here. We did do one at bobs, just never officially did a thread here on it. We were going to wait until we did more tests and never got around to it, but thanks to another fellas work on the net I think the results of this product as a combustion chamber cleaner are second to nothing known, so I will post some boro's on it past and present.
