Re: 4.9 performanceSorry to tell you but with those mods you would be in the LOW 15's not 14's. It takes a lot of power to have a second and a half gain. You think it is soo easy! I have been there, spent the money, been disapointed with results. Yes it was on a Camaro, but a car is a car!
Plus, you will get better RESULTS making a stock 15-16second car quicker then a stock 13 second car quicker... IOW, like almost any hobby (including home audio gear, my other past time) is, at first you spend a little to get alot, but once you get to a certain point, you spend alot to get a little... but that is what seperates 1 person from the crowd.... IE... it is CHEAPER to get, say a Mazda Miata or an Acura Integra or similar small import to shave UP TO 2 seoncds off their 1/4 time then a Camaro.... NOT that it will be FASTER... A Miata is what? like 17 second car stock? do an engine swap and a few other things, and you can get it to run a flat 15.... 2 seconds off the 1/4 time... to get a stock Camaro, which you claim is a low 13second car to run a low 11second time (2 seconds off the 1/4 time) will take ALOT more money then getting a Miata to go from 17s to 15s.... again, not which is FASTER, but how much it costs to get similar benefits....Porting and polishing your heads isn't going to do much but waste your money if you don't get a cam/intake/headers to get the extra airflow in and out. You can port and polish your heads till the cows come home but if you want to see a difference you're going to need everything else to accomidate it before it would actually be beneficial. I can only imagine how restrictive those exhaust manifolds are. Actually, if you were to do it, the proper thing to do is get a cam and then work the heads around the cam.You also don't need a shift kit on your Caddy. I had my tranny re-programmed with a program called LS1 Edit for Camaros/TA's and Vettes. You can totally adjust the firmness of the shifts, when it shifts, etc. I'm sure you can probably get something like this done. My trans shifted so hard after the settings were changed I could burn out when it shifted into 2nd gear, worse than if it were a M6.
The tranny in my DeVille is electronically controlled as well, when you run it wide pen, it does shift alot more firm then part throttle, but still not really firm.... a reprogram chip or anything like that can only increase line pressure... but you can only increase the pressure so much.... is is the physical part of the tranny, and how the clutch plates actually slip from the factory like that.... If I can get the shift kit and a fluid/ filter change for $150 or so, I will probably do it, the car really take a long time to shift... again designed for the target audience, and I think the shift kit would improve it alot.Oh, and LS1 Camaro's don't run low 14's stock, they run low 13's.That guy with the hot rodded Caddy runs High 12's not Low 12's, plus he has never even been to the track so his estimates with the G-tech might be false. He is also a different story than you! A 500CI engine is no laughing matter, you can make that into a monster, something you cannot do with a 4.9. Plus (I may be wrong) but I'm sure there are tons of performance parts out there for the 500CI that are also used in other big blocks. If I'm not mistaken lot of the older stuff was universal. Also, the car is RWD which helps out greatly in the traction department.
Anyway, the Cad 500 does have after market parts (500cid.com) and AFAIK other parts form other engines are not interchangable... but the 472/500 does have a nice following... yeah there is the whole FWD/RWD thing.... in a 16, 15, even 14 second car, it really dosn't come into play.... there is a 9second FWD car.... what is your point? my fathers Grand Prix is a high 14second car stock, and even lightly modified can be in the 13's (don't believe me? there is a MASSIVE following on those cars) and they are all FWD.... don't get me wrong, if all else was equal, I woudl take RWD over FWD, but saying 1 car is simply better becuase it is RWD isn't saying much....
Also, it isn't the fact that the 500 actually has an aftermarket, or the car is RWD, or is is a classic or blah.... but that it is a Cadillac with a Cadillac engine... and in a previous post of yours you said something along the lines of "modding A Cadillac is stupid and pointless, and you can't get A Cadillac engine to run a 12second 1/4) That just disproved your point....But again, because of the weight it's slowing him down. My buddy has a 70 Chevelle which he just put a 502 in. He's making 750HP naturally aspirated and 1000HP on spray. He should be in the high 9's.
continuation of last thread.... too long for 1 post.....Another thing to point out. Lets say you get a chip. Then you do your heads, now you need another chip burned. Then later you do a gear, then you need another chip burned. Almost everything you do effects the computer, and if not programmed to accomidate the mod, your car will not maximize power or run correctly. OBD I may not be as sensitive to mods as OBD II, I don't know, but I know whenever I had something done to my Camaro the computer always needed to be reprogrammed.
Anyway, wouldn't the thing that makes sense be to do all the work, THEN have the computer programmed for that, instead of going in "steps" as you mentioned? that goes for ANY car... but again, I don't know much about that as I don't have first hand experience with it...
All in all, when someone picks up a stock Camaro and takes it to the track and runs a low 13, but gets beat by another (modded) Camaro or Mustang running a 12.... they'll be like, cool, my car can be that fast with some money too, and you woudln't feel bad because a similar car beat you.... but if the same person pulled up next to an old school Fleetwood, which looked completly stock, and thought, "yeah ok, like that guy is gonna try to race me" then get beat from the old school, not gutted or made lightweight at all, powered by a Cadillac engine.... THAT is something that will have EVERYONE at the whole dragstrip staring in amazement at what just happened...
... kinda like how you see alot of movies online where someone will take what is otherwise a crappy car, like an early 90's Hyundai, an old Civic or Neon or something, but build up the engine, and keep the looks stock, then have it race, and beat a sports car... I am all for the sleeper look, but instead of a little 4banger econo car, I would rather go with a massive old luxury car what is big, long and heavy....
Seems like a Lincoln Town Car would be cheaper out of the box though... you got your RWD driveline, and the Ford 302, which has tons of aftermarket.... you could really build up a Town Car, and nobody would suspect it..... I guess it is just personal taste though, you may love to drive around in a flashy car, and everyone knows it's fast as soon as they see it, I would rather have a nice luxury car that looks harmless but completly rips once it is raced.... IMO I think that is one of the coolest things in the world.... again, personal opinion.

The only last generation TownCar w/302 is a 90' and it is a LOPO one only 150hp. 91-04 have the 4.6 and they only make 249 at max. You could put major money into it and only have about 300hp.
What comes to my mind is a 94-96 Fleetwood. Supercharged and what not, maybe 400 or more hp.

You can change the firmness of you trans with the computer. I have done it with my Camaro. How hard it would shift compared to my Camaro I'm not sure. If you have the electronic transmission, which you have, you can reprogram it. You might want to do some research and try it. I'm sure you can get that thing to shift pretty damn hard. Mine shifts as if I had a shift kit put in, plus I can change it back with the touch of a keystroke! It's cool stuff.
Since you have OBDI I'm not sure how much of this stuff is the same as my Camaro's OBDII! It may be completely different or exactly the same. I'm not really sure.

Re: 4.9 performance
It dont add no dam 100 hp it adds 85 hp minus 100 rpms since the transmission is limited to 4900. It dont cost 8-10k it cost 5,543 plus 750 for labor. Tell you the truth for that much money I would go buy a corvette engine and tranny and put rear wheel drive on the caddy thats my dream one day for when I will have excess income. Even if I am a millionare I will still buy a 93 deville and put 600 rear wheel horsepower on it with super quiet exhaust.

Re: 4.9 performance
QUOTE: I don't know about your car, but my car has the 4T60E.... my father has a '99 GTP (one of his many cars) it is pretty much stock, just has the smaller s/c pully, and added a factory strut bar (GM put them on the Regals, but kindly forgot them on the GP) He was getting a noise form the tranny, so he dropped the whole cradle, and took the tranny to his friends shop and had a total rebuild... his tranny is the 4T65E... pretty much the same as the [4T60E] in my DeVille.... he had the tranny rebuilt, beefed up, and had a shift kit installed..... before the rebuild, when the car was NOT in performance shift, it would kick the RPM's back before shifting, and kinda flow into gear, you wouldn't really feel the shift (like my DeVille)... when performance shift was ON (increase in line pressure) it would shift more firm.... what happens with my DeVille and the GP in normal shift, is that the clutch plates come together too slow, and since they are turning when they are coming together, there is unwanted slipping, which also will wear out the tranny faster.... today we were talking about that and then we rode in his car and he showed me, it isn't banging gears (like his Fiero with the shift kit does) but just shifts into gear alot more firm (when not in performance shift) <--- My DeVille is like that from the factory, so that the target 65+y/o buyers woudln't get whiplash from shifting gears, and it would last a good deal beyond the factory warrantee, so GM woudln't be loosing any money on it....

That is NOT why the deville shifts are not firm!! The engine throttle cuts off for a split second when it shift into gear to make it unnoticeable. It shifts very firm just the throttle cuts back WHILE it shifts so it seems that it is not firm. This is a feature of these cars from the factory to make it seem like the car doesnt shift gear and also increases engine life. The firmer shifts the super chips claim is because the chip overrides this feature so the throttle doesnt cut off for a millionth(or w/e) of a second while the transmission shifts. You can do this manually without the chip. Just how you can change the timing with the onboard computer (OBD-1) you can also override the throttle cut off while it shifts feature.

Re: 4.9 performance
Speaking from experience and having done the reprogramming on many 4.9L engines now(30+), the Superchips timing and fuel tables are better than the fastchips ones. They don't unilaterally add 4 degress of timing and make your car run rich like people claim, they are dyno tuned on a factory motor and they genuinely increase performance 20HP and 18 lb/ft just like they say. the timing is in fact a non-linear increase, as it increases mostly in the lower and upper ranges, leaving the midrange less adjusted. the fuel is adjusted for PE mode( power enrichment ), but lean cruise mode is unaffected, so your fuel economy is unchanged, in fact, it is better at WOT than stock because there is more timing added which increases the efficiency of the fuel burn. The end result is an efficient fuel consuming car and more power and torque. if you simply just bump the timing like so many do without affecting fuel maps on the chip, then your BLMs( block learn mode), will always be a step behind when fuel needs to be added and it will trim the fuel rather than adding it when it is needed...
I offer my reprogramming services for anyone that needs it. I charge a flat $125 shipped to reprogram your cadillac computer for the 4.9L. I use the Superchips timing, fuel, and VE tables, and i can customize the tune for any perameter, including different than stock tire sizes, increase rev limit, remove top speed limiter, sportier shift points, adjust fan turn on temperatures to acomodate a lower temperature thermostat( recommend going no lower than 180, as 176 degrees is required to go into closed loop ), raise idle engine speed to 800 rpm for those experiencing low cooling from their A/C at the stock 600 rpm idle speed, remove VATS( vehicle anti-theft system ) if need for a custom car application, such as a fiero, A or W-body engine swap, etc...
Superchips charges $300 for this same service, and they don't even offer the full range of custom programmability that I offer you at $125. If you have any questions, feel free to email me anytime:

Re: 4.9 performance
Remove the back seat, carpet, padding and interior panels, gut the trunk, lose those wire wheel covers and spare, remove all that useless chrome and trim. Mufflers and cat delete, run straight exhaust, might as well pitch the air cleaner and as mentioned advance the timing. Should run faster that way. LOL!

Long-distance routes and tour tips
The fens in this region once provided a livelihood for the local peat-cutters. The German Fen Route brings this history to life.
Navigable drainage canals, locks and bascule bridges bear testament to the mariners and moorland settlers, and there are many small museums along this flat route, which is ideal for leisurely cycling tours. You can look forward to traditional fen villages, restored windmills and old brick-built churches, as well as fenlands with dead-straight canals, picturesque bascule bridges, moors and meadows. A rather more imposing sight is the Meyer shipyard in Papenburg, where huge cruise liners are built. In the harbour town of Leer you are so close to the North Sea you can taste it on the breeze.
Terrain: flat route without any major hills, mostly on asphalt and away from busy roads.
Scenery: long-distance cycle route along canals, bascule bridges and moors and through historical towns and villages.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by blueadams, Mar 23, 2014.
Perhaps because there were still intriguing prospects available at 7 and 8. ?? What's 1+2??
What about the intriguing prospects at 9? Austin Rivers, Meyers Leonard, Jeremy Lamb, John Henson, Maurice Harkless, ...
I guess not as intriguing as who was available at 7/8, obviously. Making Drummond the biggest no-brainer pick since Trey Burke.
Biggest no-brainer since Darko.
*Since Melo
Pointing out that a train wreck isn't the same thing as the biggest disaster in the history of transportation since the invention of the wheel should not be viewed as defending the train wreck.
It's not about defending Joe D. It's about me going back over the drafts yesterday, curious about Paul George, and noticing how well Joe has drafted. We're all adults here. We don't need to put devil's horns on Dumars and make him out to be the worst thing of all time. His record is his record. As is his drafting record. And yeah, Cousins vs. Monroe. I just remember KGREG wanted Cousins and didn't want Drummond.
Its a difficult thing to draft. Look at Brandon Knight vs. Kemba Walker. Kemba had the resume but he was a little short. Knight's intangibles were off the charts and he had size and the athleticism. But Knight was arguably the worst ball handler I've ever seen at guard in the NBA. He improved to terrible after his first year. Both struggled early. At this point, I love Kemba's game. He is what he is. Knight looked to have more potential but he never seemed to be able to do the crafty things. Today, I'd rather have Kemba. But you don't know how things will shake out.
How far into a guaranteed playoff spot would this lineup be? C: Drummond/Harrellson PF: Monroe/Jerebko-Mitchell SF: Middleton/Singler SG: Knight/Singler-Stuckey PG: Burke/Stuckey-Bynum
I am not sure Burke > Jennings
wow roscoe. talk about an agenda
Burke sure doesn't look like a starting caliber PG.
This lineup looks like it would be solidly in the Disaster Zone. Sent from outerspace
Not now but.maybe ina a 1 or 2 years he will be great pg Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk
What agenda? I think if you asked 100 NBA execs today, a great many of them would agree that Jennings > Burke TODAY.
Burke has more potential than KCP... sent from my Moped..........
KCP has the potential to, someday, almost be as good as Khris Middleton is now
KCP will make everyone forget about Rodney White.
Not agreeing with you and defending Joe Dumars are two very different things. Roscoe pointed out that he had drafted very well, not that he was the greatest GM to ever grace the NBA. I think it is arguable that his impact on his team has been greater than BJ. I definitely think he is a better team leader and fights a lot harder but on a pure talent level, I tend to agree. That looks like the Bucks right now with a better centre and less depth.
That was the fun part, or can we say the sad part, might be the core of the sports business.

Quick GuideHeart Disease: Causes of a Heart Attack
How Long Does Cardiac Catheterization Last?
Cardiac catheterization usually takes about 30 minutes, but the preparation and recovery time add several hours. You should plan on being at the hospital all day for the procedure.
What Happens During Cardiac Catheterization?
You will be given a hospital gown to wear during your cardiac catheterization. A nurse will start an intravenous (IV) line in your arm so that medications and fluids can be administered through your vein during the procedure.
The cardiac catheterization room is cool and dimly lit. You will lie on a special table. If you look above, you will see a large camera and several TV monitors. You can watch the pictures of your cardiac cath on the monitors.
The nurse will clean your skin (and possibly shave) the site where the catheter will be inserted (arm or groin). Sterile drapes are used to cover the site and help prevent infection. It is important that you keep your arms and hands down at your sides and not disturb the drapes.
Electrodes (small, flat, sticky patches) will be placed on your chest. The electrodes are attached to an electrocardiogram (ECG) machine that charts your heart's electrical activity.
A urinary catheter may be necessary for the procedure.
You will be given a mild sedative to help you relax, but you will be awake and conscious during the entire procedure. The doctor will use a local anesthetic to numb the catheter insertion site.
If the catheter is to be inserted into your arm (at the bend of the elbow, called the "brachial," or in the wrist, called the "radial" approach), a local anesthetic will be injected into a vein in your arm to numb the area. A needle will be placed inside the artery and then a wire advanced to the aorta. The catheter will then be advanced over the wire. Although you may feel pressure as the sheath and catheter are inserted, you should not feel pain. Tell your health care providers if you do feel pain.
If the catheter is to be inserted at the groin (called the "femoral" approach), a local anesthetic will be injected to numb the area. A small incision will be made over the blood vessel through which the catheter and introducer sheath will be inserted. The catheter will be inserted through the sheath and threaded to the arteries of your heart. Again, if you feel pain, tell your health care providers.
When the catheter is in place, the lights will be dimmed and a small amount of dye (or "contrast material") will be injected through the catheters into your arteries and heart chambers. The contrast material outlines the vessels, valves, and chambers.
When the contrast material is injected into your heart, you may feel hot or flushed for several seconds. This is normal and will go away in a few seconds. Please tell the doctor or nurses if you feel itching or tightness in the throat, nausea, chest discomfort, or any other symptoms.
The X-ray camera will be used to take photographs of the arteries and heart chambers. Your doctor may ask you to take a deep breath, hold your breath, or to cough during the procedure. You will be asked to hold your breath while the X-rays are taken. When all the photos have been taken, the catheter will be removed and the lights will be turned on.

Fresh off its the best finish since 1995 at the MAAC Championships for the men's team, the Canisius College men's and women's cross country teams will now compete at the NCAA Northeast Regionals on Friday.
The Griffs will head to the Van Cortlandt Park -- the same venue that the hosted the MAAC Championships to compete against 40 of the nation's top programs.
"I tell the athletes that this is one of the best meets in the country and one of the most competitive races they'll ever run," said head coach Nate Huckle. "The Northeast Region is a very competitive region and to even finish in the top-100 [individually] is an accomplishment. I just tell them to take advantage of the opportunity to rise to the occasion against the best of the best."
The Canisius men are coming off a second place finish that saw each of Canisius' top-five finishers place in the top-21 overall.
Once again, the Griffs were led up front by sophomore Cooper Roach, who finished ninth overall (26:03). Roach was followed closely by freshman Jeff Antolos (26:22) and sophomore Michael Anvelt (26:23). The top-five was rounded out by another pair of freshmen Brennan Root and Xavier Sauvageau.
Canisius' first and fifth runners were only separated by 51 seconds.
"If we want to move up into the top-15, we've got to keep that gapping moving forward," Huckle said. "I think that we're capable of finishing between 15th and 20th, but how close to 15th depends on how the cards lay out that day. I'd like to see Cooper somewhere between 50th and 70th and hopefully get three or four guys in the top-100, then we can have a good day."
On the women's side, senior Mikelle Cala was the Griffs' top-finisher for the second-consecutive season. She completed the 6k-course in 23:20, which was good for 15th place. Fellow senior Catherine Phillips was the second Canisius runner to cross the line in 20th overall.
Freshman Haley Keene, junior Jamie Wallace and freshman Macey Walker, rounded out the Griffs' scoring – each of whom placed in the top-51 overall. The Griffs placed sixth for the second year in a row.
"In the women's race, we have nothing to lose," Huckle said. "We were 32nd of 36 last year and really they have an opportunity to finish somewhere between 20th and 25th, it really just comes down to how aggressive they are and how excited they are to race."
Canisius' men will get underway first, with the race beginning at 11:45 a.m. The women will start shortly after at 1 p.m.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Views: 27
I think having a well-updated website (or other easy way of spreading information) is very important! Lack of information has caused problems for me in the past. In 2007, the NJ ZIne Fest changed their start time from noon to something like 5:00 p.m. and I had no idea until I got there at noon and saw a sign. I had to just go home because there was no way I could wait around for five hours. That really sucked./div>
only give full tables to people who really need them like distros or people who travel with other people's zines.
This makes me feel crappy. I had a full table because I have lots of zines and I don't like to be jammed in trying to fit them all on a table while also making it so people can see them. It makes the whole experience much more fun to me to have my own table. I gladly pay the extra money and do not ask for it back, so why am I being greedy?
Also, Alex, by your criteria, you wouldn't have a full table, either. I hope you will consider this during the meetings.
Alex Wrekk said:How about not have a black out! Seriously, the Midwest zine fest of 03 I think started hours after the huge blackout that happened! They were such troopers and still pulled it off. I was amazed.
What are people's opinions on assigning tables vs. free for all? We have done both with the Portland Zine Symposium. I think I like them assigned. Also, this year we are limiting the amount of full tables to make room for more individual zinesters and only give full tables to people who really need them like distros or people who travel with other people's zines. In the past we have had greedy jerks who just wanted a full table or filled the tables up with things that are not zine or comics and I don't feel that was fair. We are also having the PZS for 3 days again. 3 days of tabling and 2 of them will have workshops. We are devising a way that people can register for each day separately on the web sit so we can regulate how many tables we will have each day. I'm pretty excited about that because we had a huge overbooking problem last year.
I like zine events where there is one or two specific people who do the announcing of workshops/raffles/etc. and event organizers who get lots of change.
I think doing everything that you can to make sure that it's well attended is important.
I had no idea that the separation of zines and crafts and comics was so strict in people's minds. I do all three, and I go to comic cons, craft shows, and zine fest. So in my mind, the lines are blurred. I pretty much put my same stuff out wherever we go. I find it really fascinating to see how people react to different stuff at different venues.
Also, at the Indie Craft Show, they gave out free beer the whole time. That made me really happy.
Krissy, You have a lot of stuff to fill up a whole table... and you are friend with the organizers and can explain that to us. I am thinking about 2 specific peole who come to the zine symposium every year and have two zines and get a whole table. We just want to event to be as inclusive as possible.

Rates and revenue: Obama's strange obsession
"There can be no deal without rates on top earners going up," White House Spokesman Jay Carney said last week. "There's not going to be an agreement without rates going up," Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said on CNN on Sunday.
But raising rates does not necessarily raise federal revenue (see Thomas Sowell's column on this page). And Republicans have offered a plan that would raise $800 billion in revenue without raising rates. Based on a proposal from Democrat Erskine Bowles, it would reduce loopholes that allow richer Americans to avoid paying the higher rates already on the books.
Obama rejected it. A White House spokesman said it wasn't "balanced." It reportedly raises revenues by $800 billion and shaves spending by $1.4 trillion. Obama's offer raises taxes by $1.6 trillion, trims entitlements by $400 billion, cuts another $110 billion and adds $50 billion in new spending. There's a $600 billion gap between new revenues and spending cuts in the GOP plan, and a $1.04 trillion difference in Obama's plan. What's that about balance?
Balance is not what Obama wants. He wants total ideological victory over the Republican Party. For that, he is willing to risk plunging the country into another recession.

At Carnegie Mellon, undergraduates are building mobile robots, creating documentary films, investigating cultural trends, and developing new digital communication technology. These student researchers find themselves in the heart of the University intellectual community, where they discover the thrilling (and often messy) process of creating new knowledge.
We use a broad definition of research that includes appropriate activities in the arts and humanities, as well as the sciences and technical fields: "Research, scholarly, or artistic activities that lead to the production of new knowledge; to increased problem solving capabilities, including design and analysis; to original critical or historical theory and interpretation; or to the production of art or artistic performance."
The Undergraduate Research Office supports student research in every field of study. We give SURG & SURG/CW grants to cover research expenses, Summer Fellowships for full-time summer research, and Presentation Awards to support students presenting at academic conferences. In May of each year, we hold our campus-wide celebration of undergraduate research, the Meeting of the Minds.
We also offer help with writing proposals, finding advisors, and applying to academic conferences. Interested? Use the links to the left, call us, or drop by - we're here to help you succeed. So what's your idea?

September 27, 2016 – The Division of Nursing at Northwestern Oklahoma State University recently was gifted 10 endowed chairs by the Wisdom Family Foundation in order to support its newly established Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) program announced earlier this year.
June 18, 2015--Northwestern Oklahoma State University and Northwest Technology Center (NWTC) recently partnered to play host to the inaugural Medical Avenues in Service and Health (MASH) Camp, held on the two campuses in Alva on June 1-3, with support from the Wisdom Foundation.
March 31, 2014--Northwestern Oklahoma State University was recently recognized by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education with the Regents Business Partnership Excellence Award for its successful partnership with the Wisdom Family Foundation. Northwestern and 26 other institutions were acknowledged for their innovative collaborations that furthered the education of Oklahoma's workforce.
September 27, 2011 - A Northwestern Oklahoma State University Homecoming Art Exhibition showing more than 40 pieces of art by more than 20 artists will be the first event in the new Graceful Arts Center in downtown Alva. The free show opens Friday with a reception for artists and the public from 7 to 8 p.m. Refreshments will be served.
After more than 20 years, Northwestern Oklahoma State University again will be offering courses leading to a minor in art. Thanks to two generous donations from the Wisdom Family Foundation to create endowed chairs in art, requirements for an art minor have been established, a fulltime instructor has been hired, and four classes have been added to the fall 2011 schedule.
Students majoring in the new agriculture education program at Northwestern Oklahoma State University will be eligible to receive some financial assistance thanks to a recently established scholarship endowment by the Wisdom Family Foundation.

Wojciech Szczesny was happy to 'win ugly' on Saturday.
Arsenal's 1-0 victory over Everton will be remembered much more for the Club's 125th birthday celebrations than the 90 minutes itself. Arsène Wenger's side struggled to breakdown a stubborn visiting team and were thankful for Robin van Persie's superb strike 20 minutes from time.
However, the Arsenal keeper was perfectly content with the day's work, even if it was hardly based on the flowing football the home fans have come to expect.
"We said in the dressing room that it is good to win ugly every now and then," Szczesny told Arsenal Player afterward. "We did not create a lot of chances and missed a couple in the first half. But we stuck together and got the all-important winning goal.
"It is vital to win these kinds of games - especially in December when there are a lot of matches and it is easy to drop points."
The victory means Arsenal have picked up 22 of the last 24 available in the Premier League. It is a fine run but one that will be sternly tested when they visit leaders Manchester City on Sunday.
"It is very important that we keep going now," said Szczesny. "We believe that we can win every game.
"We have a massive game against Manchester City coming up. They will be favourites this time but we are confident we can go there and get the three points.
"It is probably the toughest game of the season but people were saying that last year and we won 3-0. We hope to repeat the performance and hopefully the result as well."

Please, God, make this happen.
Rounding third and heading for home...
Rounding third and heading for home...
sucks losing Didi but, Walt, make it happen!
There are 3 guarantees in life; death, taxes, and the leadoff walk coming around to score.
If this goes through and the Indians get/keep Stubbs, anybody wanna set an early over/under on total strikeouts combined for the prolific whiff duo of Drew Stubbs and Mark Reynolds?
400? 450??
Either way, it's gonna be windy in Cleveland. lol
Just a dude who loves the reds, and some new sneakers.
This would give us a really solid lineup. It's a bit much to give up for 1 year with a guy, but I wanna say I read earlier the Indians would be sending another player as well.
for the love of god let this happen
Looks like Arizona is getting involved, I'd guess for a SS. If we can land Choo without losing pitching depth, I'll be ecstatic.
Shin-Soo Choo? Hell Yes.... That is all.
Apperantly this deal is almost finalized. YES!!!!!!!
there has got to be smaller parts to this trade if it ends up a three way trade.
http://diamondvisits.blogspot.com/ My Minor League stadium review site.
Lets look at this from indians prospective why would they do this. Im failing to see it. Which is why im not optimistic this is going to happen.
If it happens this is an absolute steal for the reds. Considering stubbs has almost negative value, and Gregorious's best year since rookie ball in the minors is .289 BA, and a .324 obp.
Crazyiness!!!! Walt better get this done
There looking to net something, before it's to late.
You might argue and say.."wouldn't choo have more value during the trade deadline period?"
Well considering it would be a 2 month rental, I imagine the amount of prospects would lessened to quite a degree, compared to trading Choo during the offseason, allowing teams to have a full 1 year, and thus requiring more in return.

Cooling System Repair in Westerville, OH
Staying up to date with your car's cooling system upkeep can be hard. Luckily our staff of qualified mechanics specialize in auto repair in Westerville, OH and know ways to get your vehicle in proper working order.
Cooling Systems decrease heat temperatures to aid all various other engine parts work correctly. Inside your engine, spark plugs start up the gas within the cylinders to produce little explosions which move your car down the road. These little explosions create burning temperatures that could damage your engine, if not regulated. With the majority of cooling systems, a liquid coolant is delivered via passages in the engine and absorbs the heat energy given off by the engine. When it moves down the rubber tubes, it is cooled by the air coming through the car's grill. There are many vital parts that enter a cooling system, and we can inspect all them.
Westerville, OH Automotive Cooling System Upkeep & Maintenance
Throughout cooling system upkeep your technician will check:
- Hose pipes and belts for indicators of holes or splits
- Your fluid level and ailment
- Indicators of corrosion and corrosion
- Residue or fluids that can easily show indicators of damages or leaks
- If all components, fans, and the thermostat are functioning properly
When driving in extremely cold temperatures, you will should ensure you have suitable levels of antifreeze in your automobile to avoid freezing your liquid coolants and additional liquids in your engine.
Eventually your vehicle's cooling system will create scale deposits which restrict coolant circulation and will require your cooling system to be flushed. Having a correctly educated technician perform normal check-ups will certainly guarantee your automobile continues to be appropriately cooled and operating for years to come. To keep your car cooling system in proper working order it is important to keep in mind the following:
- Ignoring your cooling system can easily cause major damage and even full engine failure}
- Your antifreeze and coolant system should be flushed every 30,000 to 50,000 miles or every 2 years
- Your coolant levels ought to be examined in the course of every oil change
Boyd's Tire & Service Offers quality Auto Cooling System Repair in Westerville, OH
With most cooling systems, a fluid coolant is delivered through passages in the engine and takes in the warmth offered off by the engine. When it relocates down the rubber tubes, it is cooled by the air coming through the vehicle's grill. There are many essential parts that go in to a cooling system, and our mechanics will examine all of them.
Make your next cooling system repair with our company or other Westerville, OH auto repair service by one of our qualified specialists! Call your next visit with Boyd's Tire & Service for your next cooling system replacement.

The 5 Stages of Climate Grief written by University of Montana Professor Dr. Steven W. Running.
I recently took a fresh look at the widely recognized concepts on the "5 stages of grief" that Elizabeth Kubler-Ross defined back in the 1970s to summarize how people deal differentially with shocking news, such as being informed that they have terminal cancer. It seems that these stages of grief provide a very good analogy to how people are now reacting to the global warming topic, so I have formulated my "5 Stages of Climate Grief".

Singular Matrix error in FindRoot ?
I'm using FindRoot on a fairly complicated function with several parameters and
one variable. For certain parameter values I get the error message:
LinearSolve::sing: Matrix {{0.}} is singular
FindRoot continues, but never finishes. I think the problem is that some terms of
the function become very! small respectively large, so that there might be an
internal underflow. However, the really annoying thing is that FindRoot seems to
"hang" after that and never finishes. This is especially bad for me, because I
calculate solutions for many different parameter values in a Table[]. But if
FindRoot hangs I have to interrupt it by hand and never finish the table.
Any ideas are wellcomed.

I read an article recently about an easy way to create a virus against Linux. To be more specific, the article shows a very simple method to create a virus which takes advantage from a GNOME/KDE vulnerability. Here's the article, highly recommended for all KDE/GNOME users.
I started using Linux just over a year ago, but security and its alledged virus invulnerability were some of the reasons why I chose switching from Windows. Therefore, having read so many times that one is immune to viruses as long as one is using Linux, I was very scheptycal about that article. However, as I read more about it, my concern started growing.
It is true that the afore mentioned "virus" is more of a Trojan horse attack, and that it can't really do any harm unless the user makes a mistake, but the mere possibility of it happening is already worrying. Even more concerning is the fact that it is so easy to create and implement.
As I said before, this vulnerability seems specific to KDE and GNOME ".desktop" launchers, but these are probably the most extended desktop environments in the Linux world. It is important to understand that while Linux itself remains invulnerable to such problems, most desktop users do use one of these two desktop environments, so they are still vulnerable to attacks of this kind in the end. For the very same reason, Linux servers are not (as they do not use a desktop environment).
As the author of the article rightly puts it, the attack is limited as long as the user does not save and execute the launcher, and it could be argued that Linux users are somewhat more technically inclined and aware, but still it feels to me like something that could impact tons of users, even more as Linux keeps growing.
I agree 100% with the author that we Linux users should be critical instead of self complacent. We should not rest in our laurels assuming that we are free from attacks or security breaches, because that's not the case.
I encourage you all to contact GNOME/KDE developers so they take care of this potential security problem.
As for potential solutions to this kind of problem, prevention, as usual, is always best. Here are some suggestions:
1.- As a rule of thumb, avoid running any email attachment which can be executed, even if it comes from someone you trust (they could be infected).
2.- Never save and execute anything unless you are 100% confident it is safe, much less a ".desktop" file.
3.- Monitor your .local/share/applications folder to ensure whatever custom launchers are in there are doing what they are supposed to do. Just run this simple command from a terminal:
less .local/share/applications/*.desktop | grep Exec
4.- Understand that your PC can only be as smart as you are. It will not prevent your misuse.
Good Luck!

Re: 1973 What's Your Function
Love this. Really hoping to purchase it.
Re: 1977 - Dark Side
No, I'm glad this was rejected, considering everything is wrong about it (date & wrong death star) as already discussed in the previous comments.
cdrewlow wrote:Correct, if I read that right. Your 16"x20" finished design shouldn't have halftones. Your 580x580 picture that people vote on and your thumbnail should.
Thank you!! I'll get it next time.

That would've been fun. I'll keep that in mind if it doesn't print and I have to take it elsewhere.
Thanks for the support this week folks!
The prompt C:\> is actually a result of an autoexec.bat (a file that got automatically run on start up) default setting of:
prompt $p$g
Meaning the Current drive and Path ($p), and the > ($g). You could change it to anything you wanted by altering the file. I believe this was the default after dos 2.
Re: 1985
I really love these movies and this shirt and I'm hoping it prints, but if not...I really like the image in the thumbnail pic. The 1985 is easier to read because it doesn't have the yellow/gold around it, and the outtatime plate seems to stand out of the flames better.
Just my 2 cents. I really hope if it doesn't go this weekend, and isn't eligeble for a double-take derby, you can find somewhere to print it. And PLEASE let me know!! I would need at least 4 (myself, family, & friends). Good luck!
At the time I had the game on my Atari 2600 I thought i was cool having both the joystick and paddles.. but for this game in particular i had no idea what to do other than keep eating pellets and falling in the hole. I still dont know what to do if I ever came across this game in the future
Re: 1988: Return to Flight
This is kind of nit-picky, but the STS-26 shuttle flight this shirt references featured the unpainted orange external tank, and the Hubble Space Telescope wasn't deployed until 1990. Besides these anachronisms, it's a great graphic—good job! If it prints, though, I would only consider buying it if the tank were orange.
fablefire wrote:This was taken into consideration. I decided on the birth of the series over the singular game.
Bonus points if you know what the original 1986 rupee colors and denominations were and when cuccos made their first appearance.
@anemality, calebmitchell, nezzer: Thanks! Been trying to improve with halftones since they posted the tutorial in the halftone derby. =)
Alternating blue/orange rupee was 1, and static blue was 5...
And cuccos first appeared in A Link to The Past.
Didn't cheat, I swear
Will buy if it wins!

Ah, that explains it...also, thinking about the year. My family must have had 2.0, since we never had to type in the ">". But that being. said...this is awesome, and like others stated...maybe not entirely original, but the design is lovely and sets it apart.
Re: 1971-Floppy Diskette
In for 1 as soon as I saw this! Awesome design; love the vintage look. The text is absolutely hilarious, and my BF is going to be getting this as a big surpise XD
And yay for using a not-often-used shirt color too. Woot ends up having faaar too many green and black shirts (variety is awesome, people!)
Re: 1977 - Dark Side RESUB
I love this shirt! I get that it is a combination of Star Wars and Apple because they both came to life that year, but I also love it because Apple is sort of like the dark empire at this point and the death star reference is very fitting.

Re: 1986
I can't believe this shirt still isn't up. I was sure it was going to win first, with mario second, and a battle for third between floppy/baby mario/spaceship. But it's not even second? If this doesn't win third I'll be openly weeping.
Is there any way at all to get this beautiful image on a shirt (RIP Salvadore Dali)?
Re: 1969 One small step for man
I really wanted this shirt to win, is there any chance you will try to put it up for sale somewhere else? I still really want one of these shirts!

I have to agree with this whole completely, I was pretty brought down when puss in boot didnt win last week, but if this one doesn't either? well that's just gonna be allot of sorrow.
I really wanted this shirt to win.. maybe a honorable mention so it can be in the double take derby...
This was the only one from this derby that I wanted..... Please, oh honored Shirt.Woot masters??? LOL
I definitely want this shirt!

Ok, so this need to get editor's pick or something.

Can you take a picture of the halftones on your shirt so I can see them? The detail shot woot had doesn't show them too well. Thanks
True they are only on the robot, so they don't get in the way of any other halftones. I also think there is a difference between the original screens ( photo permalink ) and the sliver remix I was looking at. if I remember after it gets washed I will try to photograph it and pm you.

I would love it if I could get ahold of the original art file to use as a poster print, or if the original artist would provide a way to purchase a print.
I own and am restoring a Williams Space Shuttle pinball and would've bought this shirt in a heartbeat if it had printed. Would still love to use this as a decoration to go with the machine.
If anyone's going to be at Texas Pinball Festival in march, my Shuttle will be there.
I loved this shirt and hoped it would be printed. Maybe in a double take derby.
I can't believe this didn't get an honourable mention. I'm gutted that this shirt doesn't get a second chance at printing.

Lukas Podolski says Per Mertesacker's glowing recommendation was just one of the reasons why he decided to join Arsenal.
The striker will link up with his new team-mates following Germany's Euro 2012 campaign this summer, having enjoyed a superb season for FC Cologne in which he scored 18 league goals.
Podolski has revealed Mertesacker's influence but insists his international colleague merely confirmed what he already knew about the Club.
"I do speak to Per whenever we meet and we keep in touch on the telephone, too," he told Arsenal Player.
"He has mentioned things about the Club's organisation, the training ground, the fans and this has really helped. It might have influenced me to a certain extent but in the end, of course, I took the decision myself.
"I have been told that this is a Club with a great tradition and history. It is a Club always among the top four in the Premier League, with a fantastic stadium, fantastic players and great fans. Which just confirmed all the things that I already felt."
While Podolski may have been lured by Arsenal's impressive pedigree, the striker admits Arsène Wenger's stellar reputation was also a key factor behind his decision.
"This also played an important part," said the forward. "Arsenal are a great club and Arsène Wenger has been a very successful coach both in Europe and around the world.
"He speaks several languages, and German in particular, which is very helpful. We have spoken to each other on the telephone a few times, which was very good and also which made my decision even easier."

we don't wire any of our foundationless frames (all deeps).remember, that the original reason for integrating wires was not to strengthen the comb for handling/extraction (although it does add some strength). wiring frames was not done until foundation came into common use.the purpose of wiring frames is to keep the foundation from sagging as the bees hang on it before/as the comb is drawn. if you are not using foundation, this is not an issue.deknow

the trick is how you handle the frames. instead of "grabbing" them, i tend to rest the top bar ears on my fingers so that the frame balances itself.

Neither the armed forces nor the police would accept this. We would make them ineffective with laws and regulations. This place is not a playground.
We will not let anyone play games. They would go downhill, no matter whom they are. Anyone that plays games, that becomes an instrument of these plots and that sets traps for the Turkish people would go downhill.
Therefore Tayyip hodja is saying very often: "One state, one people, one flag." He says, "We will not allow such impertinence."
February 16th, 2014: A9 TV
ADNAN OKTAR: No such thing will happen. We will not openly allow a system that will divide Turkey. But they can dream and talk, as they want. They can go to cafes and talk as freely as they wish. But we will never let it happen. They should not try in vain. When we feel that Turkey is getting divided, when we see any sign like that, we will move the Earth and skies and we will never let it happen. If necessary, 70 million people will become martyrs. They should not try to feel our pulse about this. It is not possible. They will forget about it, insha'Allah. We must take precautions against it. The government must be very alert about this.
Adana CRT TV: September 30th, 2008
Adnan Oktar: Allah reveals that Muslims are like "...well built walls that fight in His way in ranks." We will be united like that, insha'Allah. Rightist and leftist, Alawite, Kurdish, Laz, Circassian, Sunni: It doesn't matter at all. We are all brothers. We are all servants of Allah. Allah has shown each one of us a way. We will respect everyone's ideas, but UNITY AND TOGETHERNESS ARE ESSENTIAL. Those who love Allah and struggle in His path are of course working together and will work to make this country a better place. Turkey will lead the Turkish Islamic Union with success, insha'Allah.

The Iowa Lakes Community College Women's soccer team heads into the playoffs Tuesday at home.
The women will take on Indian Hills at 2 p.m. at The Lakehouse. The Lakers have won both previous match-ups against Indian Hills – 9-0 and 6-0.
Over the weekend, the Laker Women beat Scott Community College 8-0. During that matchup, Brooke Saxton set a new record for the Lakers. The freshman forward scored five goals with one assist.
That gives the team an overall record of 13-5 and a conference record of 4 wins and 4 losses. A win will send the team to Des Moines for the Region Semi-Final game at the James Cownie Soccer Complex.
"We think we have a really good chance of advancing to the championship," said Head Soccer Coach Ammon Bennett. "Our goal all year has been to reach that game and win it."
The Laker Men wrapped up their regular season with a 3-1 win over Scott Community College Saturday. That gives them a 7-12 overall record and a conference record of 4-8.
Their playoff match will be Wednesday in Fort Dodge against the Iowa Central team. The Lakers lost both times they played Iowa Central earlier this season. The team is hopeful they can turn their luck around for a win on Wednesday.
Brooke Saxton is now in the record books for Iowa Lakes as she scored five goals and one assist against Scott Community College Saturday.

Discussion in 'Off The Beaten Track' started by skipaway, Jan 8, 2012.
Congratulation to the new parents. Baby Girl named "Blue Ivy". Explanation below.
Blue Ivy
I love how they came up with the name Ivy.
Ivy's a perfectly decent name. But Blue... Blue. That poor little rich baby. Can you imagine the teasing.
Blue may be an unusual name, but there are several baby girls names that are a reference to blue, generally related to descriptions of blue.
I am just thinking that she will need months of muscle training/PT to get that C-Section tummy back into the dancing strength shape
Poor baby with an awful name. At least she has Ivy to fall back on.
But not everyone knows those names mean blue and a name like Azure sounds more exotic.
Blue doesn't just mean a color it also can mean sad. I'm thinking of kids saying to the kid, Blueeeee Lonesome, Lonesome for you. To name a few things this kid is going to be saddled with. It will be easier to make fun of that name than Apple (even if Apple is weirder.). They should have named her Ivy Blue (at least) At least the child wasn't named Bear Blu (like apparently what Alicia Silverstone named her little boy)
Not a smart name.
Elvis Presley: "I'll have a bluuuuuuuueeee Christmas, without you...."
Brittany Taylor (on Daria): "Is that name OK? Because I was thinking of changing it to 'Blue'."
It also sounds like "blew", so you know this girl is getting teased in high school.
it's not a good name but it is better than beyonce
Oh yeah. Teenage boys live for that sort of name.
A friend of mine is named Blue. He's a well-known and well-liked distinguished professor--I don't think anyone ever made fun of his name.
And don't we just know that the tabloids will be full of "Body After Baby!!!" stories with lots of $$$ shout-outs to her trainers, nutritionists, Spanx suppliers, etc. etc. etc.
I like the name Blue.
Hate it when people judge unique names. >_< Congratulations to Beyonce and Jay-Z! It's a beautiful name; kid is lucky to have parents like them.
No doubt the plastic surgeon was on hand to give Beyonce a simultaneous tummy tuck/lipo after the birth.
But anyway, congratulations to Beyonce and Jay-Z!
me too
In his entire X number of years on the planet, including elementary school, middle school, and high school, no one ever made fun of his name?
Good to know.
Blue Ivy kind of sounds like a Batman villain name.
Lil Blue will probably be going to school with Harper Seven, etc so I wouldn't worry too much about being bullied.
Well, if she's a Baby, and her name is Blue, then this is her song!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C53QAuOoSgc
I think it's a beautiful name ...
Maybe it's my background but I don't get the level of people have towards unusual English names. This is one area people seem to like conforming and do not encourage creativity. I guess it's language related.
I don't mind it. I think it's a cute name. Wouldn't name my own kid that but as far as celeb names go, it's a nice one.
So did she really have the baby or what? Anyone remember the FakeBellyGate?
I think the name is very pretty. It's way better than a lot of other celebrity baby names (Audio Science, Pilot Inspektor...) while still being semi-original.
Kenny Rogers had a show???
My good friend had a dog named Blue, and I'll always think of Blue's Clues.
I just love that her initials are B.I.C.
My SIL & BIL have a cat named Blue...
Yeah...my first thought was that she figured out Blue's Clues...
Jeremy Sisto has a daughter named Charley-Ballerina
If we don't like it, we're entitled to say that we don't like it. Just as you are entitled to say that you like it.
Congrats to the couple.....of course, all I can think is that if she looks like her father she's going to have bigger problems than her name.
Parents have the right to name their kids whatever they want, although I've always wondered about the logic that's used when they hang these atrocious names on these poor kids. Don't they know that these kids go thru life paying for their parents' desire to come up with these most unique and creative names?
Is it wrong of me to wish she becomes a tomboy?
Ivy is a cute name, Blue is just weird.
I'm just glad she was born on Saturday night and not Sunday. Don't want to share my spotlight
Seriously, though - congrats to Beyonce and Jay-Z
Blue and Ivy are both nice names but I don't think they go well together.
Yes, because Beyonce is such a common name...

So, in one corner I have a 1985 Buick LeSabre Limited Estate Wagon with a junk Olds 307 and a 200-4R. And in the other I have a 1969 Olds 455 out of a Delta 88. And my plan is to swap engines after building the 455 and make it a street/strip pounder. Being my first solo engine build and not being terribly familiar with Olds engines, I have a few questions.A) Does this combo sound fairly well matched?Olds 455, 0.030" over.Ported factory C heads with bit valves10.5:1 Compression forged pistonsPolished stock rods with ARP bolts (Possibly shot-peened)Stock crank (Possibly shot-peened)Comp Cams Marine 292H cam (Their recommendation)Edelbrock Torker intakeB) The 307 has an HEI distributor. Can I use this (with an upgrade kit) in the 455 and will it pack enough spark?C)Will Sanderson 0455 short-tube headers fit in this chassis?D)What oiling mods are required to make this thing live?E)Will this thing handle the occasional 100hp shots of nitrous later on?Sorry, I know it's a lot of questions but I want to make sure BEFORE I start ordering parts and bolting this thing together.
I had a 1986 Wagon like yours, and the 307 was a dog....I then got a 1988 Pontiac Safari S/W. I purchased it from my company it had a 305 Chevy engine. I installed a 350 and 3:70 gears to pull my Race car. It was a different car. You need Rear Gears to move the weight. You could even go to a 3:90 or 4:00 gear. The tires are tall on those wagons. 235/75/15Sounds ok for a real sleeper too.Keep the compression under 10:1 gas!The only thing you didn't mention is gears. That should have an 8.5 ring gear. So I would install atleast a 3:90 rear gear.I don't know what to do with oil mods. See if you can pick up a HI-PO book by Joe Mondello he was the god of Olds engines. He past away last year.NOS I don't like but I'm sure there are guys in the forum that will help you. Sounds like a very kool build. Take it to the track,and take home some money.ThanksBob
For the gears, I'm looking at runing a 4.30:1. With the planned 2004R, it'll launch like a TH400 with 4.82 but with the overdrive they will act like a 2.82. I already have the 200-4R so that's why I plan to build and use that
Pity you don't live near CT, I'd love to get my greasy fingers on that 307....engine masters series has had some luck with 'em, even with the window'd main webs and weak stock c'rods. 350 parts fit right in. but in something that heavy, yeah, you want inches.anyway, I believe 1985 was the year the 200R4 finally got good, but you won't need steep gears with its already steep First gear. Its not the 700R4's 3.0 first, but its good enough. Pity also that 69 455 wasn't out of a toronado, it was the forged steel crank 390hp job hurst thru in its H/O. Will have to check, you may still luck out on that crank.nitrous and that high a CR will require some high octane fuel.I think that small block HEI won't be long enough for a big block, but yes, an HEI properly built will do the job. Davis Unified Ignition rebuilds 'em for fords, etc.check, i think, its olds455.com for oiling mods. it will need 'em, b/c that crank has like 3" big mains, and that's a lot of surface area to cover.
Just because you can't do it...doesn't mean its impossible
Yeah, the 307 could use a good home. Was rebuilt in the '90s but then the car got parked and it's never been run since the rebuild. As for the 200-4R being good that year, I don't know. My father had it rebuilt two or three times and it never shifted quite right.
that may have been due to an incorrectly adjusted TV cable burning the trans out.check for author bill trovato, he has a book on olds engines thru SA publishers. he thought the forged steel crank was too heavy, the nodular one your engine most likely has is good for 600hp i think it was. but he probably has pics on the oiling mods.also, since joe mondello died, apparently his company isn't as good as it used to be, PHR had 'em build a 455 for their 65 olds f85, and it just recently died due to oil starve. dick miller racing may be your better bet.i figure the 307 is a better stand in on a rat rod for an olds rocket engine than some zz3 chevy with olds valve covers on it...plus it'll be lightweight like engines of that era were. I think june 1990 PHR did an article on the engine. called "giant killer" tho in a tank of your weight its a race to see what would die first lol
Just because you can't do it...doesn't mean its impossible
I thought SAM built Project Olds' engine. If I were to build a Rat Rod I would rather use the Mercury 292 Y-block motor sitting in the garage corner than a 307 Olds.Now, for my flywheel, should I run a heavier one or are the low gears in the tranny and rearend and tons of torque gonna be enough?
If I remember correctly, PHR sorta laid the blame on JMR, but I'm sure they don't really want to annoy a sponsor, if ya know what I mean...Y-blocks are cool, had a 57'bird and still have the 56 vicky parts car we used, you probably spend some time at HAMB on jalopyjournal.com and listened to the Y block on Porters video today...but those S ports look nasty to attempt a home porting job. maybe a job for extrude honing...as for the flywheel, the engine was designed to move 4000lb cars, so...I'd say a stock weight should be fine, since you want this to be a streeter as well as a stripper...
Just because you can't do it...doesn't mean its impossible
