Discussion in 'March 2009' started by Dlev59, Mar 7, 2009.
Who goes up for a jump ball with a closed fist except Amir?
Didn't they learn anything from the 04 Finals?? Immediately foul as soon as the ball is in the player's hands for crying out loud!!!!!!!
Was it Walter Hermann's closed fist? I'm trying to rearrange things so the appropriate scapegoats are catching heck...
Who cleans up his mistakes so well, except Amir? After they got the jump ball, Amir blocked the ensuing shot, and we got the ball. No harm done. PS, in contrast, when was the last time Herrmann cleaned up anyone else's mistakes? In other words, when was the last time he actually got to any defensive play at all?
Amir actually back-handed the ball to the Knicks. But you're right, he cleaned up his mistake nicely tonight...instead of with a stupid foul.
We started out well in the first quarter, with a power forward and a center in the game. 10 points given up in the first 6 minutes. But then we paired up Kwame and Dyess, for about 3 minutes, giving up 14 points. And then we had Herrmann out there quite a bit, and that don't count as it just gives us 4 guys playing defense. Toward the end of the game, that hardly counts, as you have old ancient of days playing with near 40 minutes on his legs. Dyess with 40 minutes on his legs - thats not a center - thats road kill.
I do agree with you a lot lately lee, and I do agree that running Dice that hard for 40 minutes is a bad idea. But boy did he ever play a heck of a game. He's 33 or 34 or something, and that's a night that would make a lot of guys' careers. Was fun to watch. A bit of a shame that Rip had that late foul, and Hughes picks that moment to shine with his free throws.
As mentioned, that was a bad coaching move. You foul the guy early, so he can only make 2 free throws. Pretty simple. PS, my writeup was in direct response to someone else on another board, who directly criticized Rip for fouling on the shot. Hey, what, you give a guy an unchallenged 3? Nope, you foul him. Hughes had already hit some threes in the game - its not like it was a poor 3 point shooter, or one who was cold. It was a guy who already had been making them. And it was a guy with height, so trying to block the shot without fouling was not going to be easy. Fouling early was the only good decision. On Dyess, yes, at first, I was very excited to see Dyess going for a career night in rebounding. But as I realized Curry was never going to spell the guy in the 2nd half, my excitement turned into a sick knot in my stomach, knowing that Curry was messing up yet again.
I think I have posted this before, but tonight was a good example of one of my pet theories. When Dice has a tremendous game, we lose. That is no reflection on him. It just seems over the last several seasons, many of his herculean efforts have been wasted. I can remember several playoff games where he was beasting, and we came up just a wee bit short. I feel bad for him. He's like the hero in a Shakespearean tragedy.
Tough loss. Magnificent game from Dyess and he deserved better. There is no offensive structure with this team and if open for a minute, then shoot. When was the last time 4 starters put up over 20 shots per game? At 5-9, what we saw was the parting of the sea. Some might get an idea what AI looks like from the other team. They are quick and intense...kinda like their coach. This game will give them a big boast. Where did JMax go? Nate did not out-jump Amir and if you noticed that the ball thrown from the official was about 3 feet behind Nate...Amir couldn't ever curl the ball backward. Officials need Practice! We'll taking about Practice! If the pistons make the playoffs, they won't get this type of slap-happy shots from the higher teams. I will be definitely disappointed if Blakey doesn't mention the win situation of the team with AI out, which is always used to feather-out his perceptive writings.
Easy game to review. Knicks vamped up the Defense and shut Rip down. The Piston offense was helpless without Sheed either on the post or with the three ball. Pistons were 1 for 9 at three ball. Knicks 10 for 32. A three beats the two very often in this league. The Piston offense has one gear in it: the mid-range shot--especially without Sheed. The personnel is not there for a consistent three ball threat. Amir, JMax and Kwame made a combined 7 points in a combined 52 minutes. That will not get it done and I hope Joe is taking notes. It is not as if the defense was good--it was very bad lead by penetration by the Knicks. Very little in terms of rotations as well. JMax had 2 boards in 26 minutes. Old guy Dyss still far outplays the young bigs but how long can the team expect that from him. As I have posted before, sooner or later the young bigs need to put up some consistent numbers.
OK now that I got my mother in law off the phone let me count the ways this BS game upset me... Amir looked like a freshman out there for one stretch with two Turnovers and foul in 30 second span. Max got out jumped out shot and out hustled and out played out positioned by Lee...while the two were in there. Dyess did his part, but 18 boards and 16 pts in the paint by Lee compared to Max's 3 pts and 2 boards. . Back to Dyess >>>a wasted performance with 21 and 22....dude was just in there to long and you almost knew he and Prince would not last in OT. As good at Stuckey was with his 23 pts and 8 dimes. and 8 boards..Nate was better...30 pts and energy to boot Rip had 27 pts, 9 brds and 8 turnovers??? almost a negative triple double. His biggest non-counted turnover was the foul in regulation??? Everybody in NBA-TV Land knew the Knicks were going to shoot the three......We would have been better if MC had tried the hack-a-lee play...even though they could have chosen anybody to shoot. Still that is either 2 FT shots...or just let him shoot to see if would have missed it....if he made it then Rip is still the goat cause he didn't foul him when he received the ball. Walley World Hermann Was it me or did that 10 pt lead at the beginning of the 4th disappear as soon as he swaggered his poneytail on to the floor??? 4 pts, 2 boards and one of the biggest and stupidest turnovers of the game running over Nate on a fastbreak instead of making an easy pass to Rip on a 2 on 1.... Disappointing loss after beating three division leaders this month, In fact that's two losses to a team who's biggest star is a sixth man off the bench named Nate.. If David Lee is FA this summer I'd say make him an offer as he is better than any big man we have other than Dyess in my opinion....maybe even better Boozer at this point.. then again maybe our guys just made Lee look good?? Meaningless stats Turnovers > NY 3 Pistons 15 Points/Paint NY 58 Pistons 42 Three balls NY 10-32, Pistons 1-9 rebounds NY >39 Pistons > 64
Dre, thank you for putting some of the problems into light. Lee was better than any of our big men save for Dyss tonight you point out. The Piston future is not Dyss and Sheed so where is the future of the team in the front court?
lapiston,,,,everyone knows that Max, Amir and Kwame are over their heads in the NBA and are journeymen at best. Both Dyess and Sheed have seen their better days and both should be the 2nd man off the bench next year wherever that play......So if anything, we need to grab at least two front men in THIS off season to play with Tay next year unless we swap him for a big and lil with penetrating skills.
I saw this posted by Lee on the News and had to repost it here. Priceless. Thanks for the laugh.
Now do you believe me that Dyess steals rebounds? Again, I'm not criticizing Dyess at all. He goes after every rebound hard, the way that a player should. We just have younger players and Sheed, who defer to him on the boards a lot. If those other guys went harder for some of the mutual rebound opportunities, their stats would be better, but our overall ream rebounding would be about the same (it is already good). It's more of a phenomenon than something than matters. Pretty fun game to watch. The Knicks were actually playing some active defense, especially on Rip in the 2nd half. 3 turnovers for NY? That has to be an overtime record, doesn't it? The Knicks are usually such a loose, fast paced team that 3 turnovers seems like the most unlikely stat in the World. 24 second violation, offensive foul, 3 in the key... none of those? Amazing, no wonder they had a chance to win. Not only was the Rip foul unfortunate, but there were some devastating calls that went against us too. The Dyess block where they called a touch foul on Tay???? And then the phantom foul that Hughes got???? Strange. But on the Rip play, Hughes was set and was going to get off a good shot. If we weren't going to go for the non-shooting foul early, then I'm arguing that Rip made the right play by trying to contest the shot. Here's why. Hughes is a .487 three point shooter this year. That average contains all sorts of things, open shots, contested shots, desperation heaves, etc. So, if Rip let Hughes shoot it, Hughes would have had at least a .487 chance of tying the game, and probably more likely a >.500 chance if left open. Hughes is a .793 FT shooter. So, even if Rip fouls Hughes (which he did by accident), the odds of him making all 3 free throws was .793^3, which = .499. The best scenario would have been to contest the shot and turn it into a .300 chance, which is what Rip tried to do. Fouling him on the shot was just as bad an outcome as intentionally not fouling him on the shot. Comitting a non-shooting foul would have also been viable, although I don't like that as much, because it brings losing in regulation into the equation. Capeesh?
I know a lot of people like Lee, but numbers aside I never watch the guy and think I'm watching a dominant performance. I don't think you can blame Amir for those turnovers. I don't know A.) why they had him standing out at the 3 pt line and B.) why they would ever pass him the ball on offense. Ditto for Walt. That was the pass that killed him. Aside from fouling more 3 pt shooters on game winning shots than anyone else, DET's other claim to fame is badly mangled fast breaks. Afflalo got a few seconds so that is good. This one might have locked up the 6th seed.
Moves like that are why you run this place.
He had a steal and often chases down many long rebounds or loose balls.
Curry = Dumb MFer Thanks for listening.

Yesterday Apple announced its intention to tighten its hold on the payment for and the delivery of content through its successful iTunes platform. (I'll leave off the I-told-you-so; oops, too late.) Apple will require that all content experiences that can be paid for in an Apple app must be purchasable inside the app, with Apple collecting its 30% fee. The app can no longer direct you to a browser or some other means for completing a transaction. Crucially, the in-app purchase offer must be extended at the same price as the same offer made elsewhere. Though the announcement of the subscription model was the triggering event, the policy extends to all paid content.
I do not believe this is where Apple will stop – I personally expect them to eventually deny the delivery of content paid for outside of the app without some kind of convenience charge. But my personal expectations are irrelevant here, because what Apple has done already is sufficient to make providers of content aggressively invest in alternative means to reach the market.
Subscription content services are the lifeblood of the content economy. A full 63% of the money consumers spend on content of all types comes through a renewable subscription (I'll be publishing this data from a survey of 4,000 US online adults as part of a bigger analysis next month, hang tight). Most of that subscription revenue goes to pay-TV providers, but 17% of it goes to newspaper and magazine publishers, including their online or app content experiences.

Hi all.
I'm a bit of a newbie here, but have just bought some bits and bobs to make me a set of Mandalorian armour (yay) for use in a SW themed LARP.
Only problem is that I have to paint the lot.
I don't want to turn up as Boba Fett Or Jango for that matter (although if I painted it as a Fett it'd be easier to sell the gear on at a later date) so I was thinking a few minor changes and doing it as a Jodo Kast armour (which should still be salable later on).
ANyways, I digress.
I don't want the armour to look all shiney, spangly, and new, it needs to look used and beat up, so how do I paint the armour to make it look scratched and dented, and shotup, and generally used and abused?
Many thanks

For decades, my family has ordered from them, everything from their classic sheerling lined rubber toed leather boots, to monogramed bookbags, to doggy beds.
However, lately, we've watched their selection of natural goods, fur and shearling to be specific, dwindle to near non-existant, with this year's christmas catalog only offering two selections of real fur products. One shearling slipper, and one rabbit bomber hat.
I called them and asked if they had any real fur, and the woman on the phone informed me that it was not socially acceptable, and that they only offered rabbit with the mad bomber hat because the animal could be raised domestically, eaten and then the fur used. When I said that's what happens with wild caught fur, she explained that I was uninformed and needed to change my outlook on the fur industry.
I was stunned, hurt, almost like I had lost a friend. L.L. Bean, like Eddie Bauer, where I had bought so many of my warm hunting clothes, my father had bought his, and my grandfather had bought his, has suddenly turned against the very people who gave them their start.
I encourange all of you to call, write, what have you to L.L. Bean and ask for REAL AMERICAN WILD FUR to be included in their catalog offerings, or we will NOT Be purchasing from them in the future. This is how PETA gets them to drop their selection of wild fur, by bombarding them with emails and threats of dropping their patronage. But truth be known, they never purchase from L.L. Bean. Let's show them that our great numbers, of ACTUAL PATRONS, can be lost because they do not understand nor appreciate what wild fur really offers.
Pity the Olsen Twins are being bombarded for their excellent fashion taste at this same time...

The sad sad thing is that their own Hunting and Fishing Department hotline had NO IDEA that this was the kind of stuff being said on their main number, and were completely abashed by it. They are really good people at the Hunting and Fishing department, and can you imagine being part of a department where the main number calls you unethical and cruel? VOICE YOUR OPINIONS!

Give them a card with your name, phone number and an offer for the one you want on it, and forget about it... You never know!
Well, I came across both a 9mm and 40 cal P99 A/S at Collector's Firearms in Houston - the store that likes to rip you off on their prices.
Both were $659 new. A/S models with the new, longer mag release. The 9mm version had a few scratches on it too.
No way I can justify paying that cost, especially for one that has scratches on it - the .40 version looked mint (no marks), but that's still too high.
And, believe it or not - they have a used, old frame P99 in green for $620 - NO box/sights/grips etc. Ridiculous!
Oh well; I'll keep looking...
Give them a card with your name, phone number and an offer for the one you want on it, and forget about it... You never know!
Where is Collector's Firearms in Houston? When I visit I will be sure and not go out of my way to see what they have. If I'm close, I'll stop by but otherwise, nope. I like Hal8000's method; let them decide.
ON the corner of Foundren and Richmond - Basically, just south of Westheimer.
U can spend an hour there looking - they pretty much have at least 1 of EVERYTHING. BUt they are way, way too high.
Actually, this P99 was cheap for them. Last year I called them, I called them, and they wanted like $709 for one.
Thanks, I'll put it on my priority list...........but way, way down low.
They gotta have $250,000 - $500,000 worth of just 1911s. THose are interesting to look at.
Did you see any 10mm 1911's?
I wasn't looking for that - they probably would have had a 10mm Kimber, seeing as they had everything else...

Arsène Wenger says defeat for Liverpool against Manchester United on Sunday won't necessarily spell the end of their title dreams.
With four defeats already this season, Rafael Benitez's side find themselves in the position Arsenal were in 12 months ago.
But Wenger says last year's title race was more difficult to get back into than this season's will be.
"Last year, the margins were more difficult," said the Arsenal manager.
"Because Liverpool lost only two games, and now we are nine games played and United have lost only once but they have drawn one too.
"Last season, the situation was more difficult. We had lost five after 14 games. But then we had the longest unbeaten run in the Premier League but it was not enough any more."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
I recently rescued a white GSD (also not getting into a debate) and she is the most gentle and sweet dog I've ever met. She's very rarely guarded about new people, but is quick to defend if she feels I'm in danger. She has never shown any signs of aggression, and is very submissive. Even though she was chained and abused for the first 6 months of her life, she is still probably the sweetest dog I've ever owned. She's about 8 months now and weighing in at 85lbs, with the sweetest, well rounded disposition anyone could ask of an abused dog. She's fully alert and very relaxed when meeting new people and dogs. And as an added bonus, she loves kitty cats!
Attachment 171346

Ours is Ms. In Charge
We have two GSDs. Not gonna get into the argument of white not being GSDs or not, don't care.
Our white GSD is female and very sweet, but she is very alert, attentive and always "on guard" so to speak. She loves all she knows, but it takes a while for her to get to know you.
Well, it's true that white is just a color. It is also true that the gene pool for whites is somewhat different because the AKC considers it a disqualifying fault. So that rules out a certain kind of breeder from producing white dogs. You're also never going to see white German dogs, they will be called Berger Blanc Suisse instead and are considered a different breed. There are also people in the US who breed to the BBS standard but refer to their dogs as white GSDs. All of this could lead to the dogs having a slightly different temperament.
My dog differs from the GSD standard in many ways. She is a rescue, and I have no idea about her lineage. She is very big-boned, weighs close to 80 lbs, is less angulated than a typical GSD, and her tail carriage is a bit high, but still saber tail. Her temperament is very low-key. She is calm and gentle with everyone she meets and will only sometimes bark if someone knocks on the door. Also non-reactive to loud sounds, sudden movement, and novelty. But she is also dog-aggressive and becomes frustrated easily. We do not know whether that trait is genetic or due to lack of socialization. It is more likely the latter, I would think, since nothing in her temperament suggests she should be aggressive. She's not fearful or avoidant at all.
But yeah, bright, affectionate people pleaser. That is what I love about these dogs.
|From everything i used to read about WGSD is that thery were more aggressive, but maybe it was just the trainers at the time diddnt like white? IDK. BUT my Zero is by far the sweetest giant i have ever met, his dad was a king white shepherd who was nice and friendly and his mom was very timid but sweet. he had two other littermates who were very shy and diddnt like new people but Zero greeted me with a wagging tail so he was who i picked, he is very protective of me, maybe a little to much but hes such a cuddle bug that i love it.
No I met both his parents, he kind of fell in my lap since the woman had a family emergency and had to leave the country. At 14 weeks he hid from us and was afraid of his own shadow.., now 3 weeks later he is still very submissive but loves to meet new people and animals. It was truly love at first sight... Extremely bright affectionate and a people pleaser

|I have 2 white GSD. My first from a breeder is very assertive, independent, protective and smart. He was actually trained to be my diabetic alert dog but he could not succeed if 911 was called and paramedics tried to get to me - he is too protective. So, he still alerts when I'm home or anytime I'm with him but he cannot be a service dog in the full sense. My other white is a rescue and she is quite opposite. As a matter of fact, she was very skiddish when I first adopted her. She wouldn't hurt a flea and is rather shy. She has come a long way but I think it's her natural disposition and she will tend to stay close to me. She is the most loving dog though...can't get enough...is that WGSD or rescue though?
White gsds
Hello! I have been finding this forum so helpful so first I would like to thank everyone for being so knowledgable. I was wondering your experience with white gsds. From what I am reading they display less aggression and are a more gentle dog, I find it hard to believe since I just see it as a coat color. However my pups parents definitely fit the bill. They were some of the most gentle gsds I have ever encountered and had no possessive qualities even towards strangers. Just looking for thoughts on this. I am quite happy with my puppy and have been spending a lot of time training him and reading up on how to correctly train him. He is a truly enjoyable pup just like his parents

".....One thing i have learned during my time playing with hotods. anything can and will happen."
I'll refer you to Murphy's Laws.
Good Luck

very informative post "oldbogie"
absolutely some food for thought. Ive replaced several starters in several different makes and moudels of vehicles never had this difficulty before. Usualy, bad one comes out new one goes in and you drive away. At the most a shim required.. Its more then apparent that the problem resides in the cracked cast area. As far as how it got cracked to begin with is anyones guess? It wasn't cracked when we put the motor in the car. The block was sent away and bored .30 It seemed to have come back all clear and ready for take off. The starter bolts used where the same ones that were in the block when the engine was pulled. The engine had been starting fine for years before the rebuild. If they were 100% factory bolts i have NO idea. I did however by replacement bolts found in the HELP-SECTION of most auto stores.
I would agree with you as far as welding cast. The idea was just to build a foundation around the missing chunk. That foundation allowed us to lock a nut onto the top of the bolt nice and flat. Had he not welded the missing chunk, id never would have gotten a nut on flush.
I realize that starter bolts are designed special and realy there should be NO substitute
at anyrate the damn thing seems to be holding niceley. perfect sounding starts and using the paper clip trick all lines up just fine.
One thing i have learned during my time playing with hotods. anything can and will happen.
For starters (no pun intended) your friend that welded on the block probably only made the problem with the damaged boss worse. Welding cast iron has a success rate somewhere between zero and a very large negative number. In spite of how it looks if you put it to a Magna-flux test you'll find more cracks well into the casting.
Bolts, GM starters don't use ordinary bolts, they have a knurled pattern resulting in a slight press fit in the starter mounting boss. This prevents movement between the bolt and the boss. Ordinary bolts cannot hold the proper alignment regardless of how much torque you put on them or how high their grade number is, they just cannot be made to work.
My expectation is that the block is damaged beyond repair, the Root Cause was probably incorrect mounting bolts allowing the starter motor to snap against the bolts causing them to twist and breaking the casting, or the casting was already broken/cracked thus allowing the bolt to twist under starting loads with the same end result. If the bolt can move in its threaded hole even if it's the proper knurled bolt, this whole scenario will take place.
You have to have at a minimum a good crack free casting with proper threads in the hole AND the PROPER GM factory bolt.
As for the flexplate, look for uniform run out longitudinally and laterally. Which is to say the ring gear must not wobble in the fore and aft direction along the length of the car. Additionally the ring gear must be concentric as the crankshaft is rotated. Any of these problems can also put a twist on the starter that can lead to cracking it or its mount on the block.
Also if the mains have been aligned bored, it's possible to have moved the crank up-wards in the block such that the ring gear is too far from the starter pinion and it now develops a significant impact moment when the gears take up the slack, thus snap twisting the starter on its mounts resulting in damage to the block casting. The only repair for this is to mill the top of the starter mounting boss to bring the pinion closer to the ring gear. When properly engaged the wire diameter of a large paper clip should just be able to pass between the tip of ring tooth and the root of a starter tooth when they are engaged.

unfreakin real!
after nearly 3 full months of battle my cancer has been cured! KNOCK ON WOOD. Atleast i hope and think. hopefully im NOT jinxing my situation by posting?
Sam-missle: i DID take your sugestion and clocked the solonoid. That didn't cure my problem as the starter still seemed to shift out of alignment. However, I have left it clocked as suggested. Once again after torquing down the starter bolts and after a few start attempts we got GRIND city. Once again, the bolt hole that was patched together had wiggled its bolt loose. loose to the point where i barely needed a ratchet to lossen it.
With the starter still clocked, front brace in place and NO shims i ran a grade 8 stud through the hole. capped the top of it with a nut. put the starter hole through the stud and tourqed another nut on the bottom of the starter. Finally added another nut below that nut to make sure it wasn't going anywhere. Ive had over 100 perfect starts since! Ive even made it to the gas station and prayed like hell after gassing up that it would start. I did bring my insurance policy though (tool kit, jack and stands in the trunk )
thanks everyone for their suggestions! i fully realize a stud through your starter wasn't how the factory intended, but its the ONLY thing that worked! Go figure! That weak hole was causing all starter bolts (new and used) to wiggle the entire starter motor out of alignment.
Joe im with ya! My 403 olds block never required a starter in 4 years of use. damn thing was just too expensive to rebuild. Chebby small block a dime a dozen
Must be the ghost of Ransom E. Olds...
|some food for thought, some blocks did not have the straight across bolt pattern only the offset style. in some cases some people have drilled the extra hole and suprisingly not 100% straight. if it is off it will, with use, pull the starter to the side no matter how tight you put the bolts. if it is factory hole it should have about 3/4 of blank and then threads. might not be your problem but check it out, if that is'nt it try re knurling the bolts for a tighter fit in the case
|sugar ray
Thank you very much for the replies you guys! All excellent suggestions.
F-Bird'88 i would have to agree with you 100%. All rebuilds "SHOULD" come with the brace. some small blocks get away without having one but the factory loaded em in for a reason.The nice thing about the mini-starters, they are so lightweight compare to the big stock ones. As for the weld job i give full credit to my buddy. Mind you he's been welding professionaly for years. He took a 9/16 nut and sawed it in half. That created the perfect foundation for the missing cast. He then welded around the half (dummy) nut so it would hold beautifly in place. a dremol and mini grinder took care of the rest filing it down to a near perfect replacement.
Sam-missle: Outstanding suggestion! something i have NOT tried yet. but you can believe i will this weekend. I remember when purchasing my mini starter a couple months back the retailer telling me it was clockable, but wasn't 100% sure of what the proceedure was.
If your suggestion works, rounds on me!
Ill post my results
ultimate starter problem
ray, the power master starter is a very good starter, however if you do not clock it right the body of the starter will make contact with the block before the bolts actually get tight. i use these starters on all 383 engine builds and have never had one that fits without rotating the body. loosen the two allen bolts and move the solenoid toward the header to clear the block. i hope this is your problem as it is an easy fix. good luck sam-missle
|After going through 8 starters I learned a few things. The grind is caused by the starter moving. Go back to the stock starter and bolts and inspect them, you`ll see some things. The stock starter bolts will have a knurled section and will have a shoulder on top of the bolt, Now look at the starter, You`ll notice the starter has 2 shoulder grooves machined into the starters mounting pad, these grooves plus the bolts must be spotlessly clean. You have to make sure you are using the correct starter bolts and nothing else. Next is when you install the starter you must make sure the starter bolts shoulders fall squarely into the mounting grooves, then snug the starter down. Next, you torque it with a 1/2 inch drive torque wrench to 45 ft lbs. Now go back and inspect your work, look at where the bolt shoulders sit, right squarely in the grooves machined into the starter, these are there to assure the starter doesn`t move. There cannot be any kind of washer or anything else on the bolt. Studs are not going to fix the problem no matter what kind of starter you use, you must use the correct bolts for the starter and torque them properly, if you just install them and snug them down as soon as they get hot and loosen just slightly the starter will come out of line and start binding again and causing the horrible grinding noise. The number 8 starter on my car was what it took for me to learn this, and it`s a cheapy advance auto parts special, and it`s been on the car years now without issue. Around this time, I also added grounds which is always a good idea, I ran the new ground from the frame to the block, and another from the block to the battery, then used another ground off the battery to the fender using around 10 gauge wire, you also need to make sure it has a ground from the firewall to the intake. Set your starter up like this and I assure you, your problems will be over. Also no shims on the starter either.

I suggest you buy a high quality mini starter and your problems will disappear. I run one in each of my 3 sbc with no trouble at all....ever. I use CVR brand, but there are many just as good and better. Bob Myers.

small blcok chevy! The ultimate starter problem! S.O.S.
Hello fellow motor heads! Im seeking some major help regarding a small block chevy 350. I have a fully restored (and modified) 1979 Trans-am. It originaly had a stock 403 olds. block under the hood. When it came time to pricing engine parts for a 403 and 350 chev. there was no contest! Small block parts a dime a dozen.
So the 403 was pulled and my 350 was built to be a powerplant. the stock 2.73 rear end ratio was removed for a more favorable 3.73 richmond set. In the middle of the drive line it houses a turbo 350-automatic done up right with shift kit. Paint was redone with the decal package. Engine beutifly detailed and the interior flawless.
So i have this 79 beauty that will NOT start with a damn! I originaly had a rebuilt starter (boch)
That starter worked well for about a month (just long enough to break the cam in and get some miles on the freshly rebuilt engine)
Ive been reading on car forums until my eyes have bled regarding others that have been in my shoes regarding chevy starters. Unfortunatly I haven't been able to solve this pain in the ***!
I have tried 4 different rebuild starters. Everything from el-cheapo's to a genuine AC-delco. all had the same results. Finaly i purchased a powermaster mini starter. same damn result! I get about 4 GOOD starts out of the starter then it seems it goes out of alignement. after 4 good starts i get the IN-famous grind that the entire neighbourhood reacts to by covering their ears.
Then i climb under the car, readjust the starter and again get 4 good starts just to have it croak again!
The ouvious steps have been taken. Shims, No shims it just doesnt seem to matter. I even purchased a starter brace from GM. That didn't solve the problem either. I then decided to proceed with the daunting task of replacing the flexplate while my new engine was still in the car. I have the 168 tooth that is SUPPOSE to match the 168 starter. All my starters have had the staggered bolt pattern. 168 tooth flexplate for stagered bolt pattern. 153 tooth plate for straight bolt pattern starters (or so ive been told) After a flexwheel replacement i still get the same result! The old flexplate looked just fine. no cracks, no worn teeth. And YES i triple checked to make sure the flexplate is on correctly not backwards.
This is when the story gets interesting..............
I decided to pull the header (no thats NOT causing a heat issue for me in my situation) and spotted the problem! The bolt located closest to the passenger side header was completely visible! Meaning, the Cast around that bolt had completely snapped off and crumbled. This was not visible before because the header was obstructing the view. Just for the record when we put the motor in the car the cast was there with no signs of cracks or wears. This explained why that bolt would come fairly lose causing the starter to shift. A friend of mine that has been playing the motor game for 30+ years came over and welded back the missing cast pretty close to perfection. It wasn't an easy task with the block still in the car by any means so my hats off to him. The ministarter bolts are shorter then the stock ones. our game plan at that point was simple. Use the longer (stock) starter bolt on the mini starter. This allows the bolt to go all the way through the welded and re-tapped hole. We could now put a nut on the end of the starter bolt preventing it from moving.
With the header still off and bolts tightly in place we pulled the disributor wire allowing the motor to turn without firing. We tested our fix job by rotating the motor 30+ times. All seemed great! After 4 cranks the starter didn't seem to be coming lose like before. It seemed to still line up with the flexplate. starter sounded quiet and smiles were on our faces. but..............NOT so fast!
After putting the header back on and the distributor wire back on we fired up the car and timed the engine. All still good. Shut off the engine and tried starting it again. again..........all was good. Tried starting it 15 + times then shutting it down. All still worked great! High fives and champaigne.
Until we went for a spin! Started up the car like a breeze. cruised around town for about a half hour in pride as onlookers checkout out my restored 79 rod with fresh paint, tires, mags and a mean sounding engine. As much as we wanted to play with the N.O.S. bottle we decided the motor needed more miles before we start shooting spray down the carb. We then returned home and turned off the engine. Could this be it?? fixed?? Shut down the engine and tried starting up the car again. DAMN! here we go again! grind! god i hate that sound! back to square 1 , sort of. my buddy grinned and said "what a tease she's being" for sure! Anyone who says vehicles don't have attitudes, i dis-agree!
both bolts still feel good and tight between attempts when before that 1 bad bolt felt lose between attemps. what seems to be happening now, after re-adjusting the starter i can start it in front of my house all day with no problems, however as soon as i pull away and start driving anywhere, when i go to restart she says NO!
The car that i purchased as my first car at the age of 17 for a mere 800 bucks is finaly restored to show condition. Problem is i cant get it to a show. Heck, ive had it insured since the end of May and have NOT yet been able to to take it to the gas station as i fear not being able to re-start it when i get there.
A huge disapointment to sum it up in 1 word. Its meant to be a weekend cruiser only. Perhaps hit a few shows, and lord willing see what the 79 screaming chicken can do on a 1/4 mile track. Im a huge do-it-yourselfer. I do NOT try to be a know it all when it comes to hot rodding. As we all know anything can and will happen. When im out of my league I usualy step back and seek help. I have NO problem taking it to a local mechanic. However, im convinced that i may be paying them 70 + bucks an hour just to diagnose the same things ive aleady done. Shims, no shims, brace, no brace etc....
Since the end of may (now july) ive spent countless hours diagnosing this problem which should be realitivly simple and straight forward. Im fairly patient when it comes to hot rod mechanics. Paitence is the key. However, im at the point where this car that i once loved has become such a pain im just hating the damn thing! So for the time being the car just sits in front of my house, fully insured and ready to roll if it would start reliably. Thats whats killing me! So close, such a simple thing. Its not like i just blew the engine and have to go throw the time consuming task of engine rebuild and replacement.
just one of those things. My last brainstorm idea is to track down a grade 8 stud. allowing me to put nuts and lock washers on both ends of the stud. I realize that starter bolts are special and can handle a pounding. Thats why im going grade 8. I also realize a stud to replace a starter bolt is NOT The correct way but i guess it cant hurt to try
I realized others have suffered this same battle that ive been fighting. thanks for listening. hopefully someone has a golden suggestion
dam chevy! should hav stuck with the oldsblock. 10+ years of starts with the thing, no problems! engine was tired though

Pastor Refuses to Tip Because It's Not Fair to God
Oh boy. A man who identifies himself as a "pastor" (right there on the check) decided that the whole "gratuity" thing is stupid. Apparently, the restaurant that he and a party of 20 dined at adds an automatic 18 percent tip to a total bill (rumored here to be about $200). When the diner found that out, he asked to pay for everyone on separate checks, thinking he could dodge the restaurant's auto-gratuity policy. But he couldn't, and that's when the pastor decided this was a spiritual matter. He scratched out the 18 percent tip on his check ($6.29) and wrote "I give God 10%. Why do you get 18"—and then, to make his point perfectly clear, wrote a big "0" on the tip line. And then wrote "pastor" next to his name, thus fulfilling his duty as a gentle shepherd instructing his flock on how to love a dark and needy world. The move has made the man some powerful enemies over at Reddit, who are on a hunt to track him down (one pastor took to Twitter to defend himself against accusations that he was the culprit) ...

This is wrong on so many levels. Worked in a restaurant for a few years and when the heads went down to pray so did your tip. Christians have a bad rep as crappy tippers. The best are the ones who leave a track and no tip.
This "Pastor' needs to read Luke 10.
So this is how boring and petty society has become, that they have to post photos of receipts with graffiti by folks who are essentially anonymous? First of all it is high doubtful this guy was a pastor, well a good pastor anyway. Why? Most educated pastors would know that the ten percent tithing is taken from Leviticus and is a part of other tithes that would be made by the Jews. in actuality they would end up tithing around thirty percent. Secondly, a good pastor, would know that the New Testament commands to give by your means, to give out of love, meaning there no longer is a set amount required in hopes that people would go above and beyond even. Stories like this just feed the fire of Christian stereotypes and make it harder for the ones who are genuine to have a good wrap or credibility. The reality is, ANYBODY, not just Christians, can be greedy inconsiderate jerks. Christian or not, human is human, and we are all susceptible to moments of inconsideration. The problem is not Christians, but people being inconsiderate. On top of all this though the original story said "a man claiming(keyword claiming) to be a pastor" so there really is no evidence he was a pastor to begin with.
I believe it. The story outlines that the check isn't the only evidence, as there is story told that couldn't be derived from the check. This must have been seen from an outside source, not referenced. And some pastors are actually bad at what they do as well, unfortunately.
Agreed some are very bad at what they do. The pulpit portrays one life while anything outside the pulpit portrays something completely different...
This is kinda disgusting.
So I'm inclined to agree that this "pastor's" little note was ill-conceived, but is nobody willing to consider that maybe something is wrong with the other side of this picture? Why do restaurants refuse to pay their staff enough to live off of, instead forcing them to live off of tips? I don't get tips for my job! Furthermore, the concept of a "forced tip" doesn't strike anybody as a little odd? What's the difference between that and simply raising your prices? There seems to be something just a little disingenious about that approach, "look at our low prices, but don't look at our forced gratuity!"
I humbly submit that something is rather wrong with the restaurant industry, but I emphatically agree that the "pastor's" approach to addressing this error left a lot to be desired.
I'm guessing you've never worked for tips either as a server with minimal wages or a bar tender/barista with a tip jar before.
I'd love to get paid $20/hr or more outright, then slow nights wouldn't make me wonder if I can pay my bills when my tips and hours that normally average $20/hr total now dip below $10.
Take out tipping from such establishments and it becomes fast-food, which is by far the shining beacon of good service.
I think that more of the story should be told here. First---the "Pastor" is a woman. Second, she did leave a cash tip--she was just annoyed that AppleBees REQUIRES 18% for large groups. Finally her complaint DID cost the waitress her job.
First she should apologize both to the waitress and publily that her snide comment was wrong and a lapse in judgement. She should humble herself and ask for forgiveness. Second she should contact AppleBees and ask that the waitress be reinstated--why? Because as "salt of the earth" we are CALLED to turn the other cheek and act out of the fruit of the Holy Spirit NOT out of spite! All of this publicity can give her opportunity to show the world how REAL Christians act--if she IS one!

Hmm so you would also have to deal with getting a title on a junked car for the 77. That may not even be possible depending on what the junk yard did. In NY if it was multi-listed (may not be right term. they bulk list all the vehicles on the yard) it can never be titled again. If they separately titled the vehicle it can be sold whole and registered. Looks like that is not case there or they would have had a flag on the VIN.
You will make life more difficult using the vin, and potentially make it less valuable, and possibly subject it to more emissions (don't know difference on 75, and 77).
I'd probably take whatever I can use, and put it in the 75. Keep the 75 titled as one. Make it look like your sister's. Maybe even recover the seats, etc. Then it is a part of BOTH of you not just hers.
I have a clean title for the 75.
I do not for the 77 (my sister's car). I did call the DMV to check it out before I pulled it out of the field and they said there was nothing flagged on the vin. I was told that the man who put the car in the field used parts from it for his race car and that he had picked it up from a junk yard.
There is nothing special about either of the cars as far as I know. They are both baseline Camaros. The 77 had a 305 and the 75 has a 350. The 75 is a #s matching car but nothing special.
I guess my basic question would be does this gain any value other than sentimental by switching the vins? Does the 77 have rare options? If it's more common the motivation for fraud is to a degree mitigated.
The honest bodyman, and his client had completely different reasons most likely.
The question is, "Is there an intent to defraud?"
You do have titles for both vehicles right?
I understand you motivation.
If you have both titles it is no big deal to show that the 75 is not stolen, etc. You could also prove this with an abandoned car title search through your sheriff if you don't have the title, and you could get one. They are both 30+ yrs old...
As I suggested you can apply either title VIN to the vehicle if done correctly.
You just want to CYA in case it comes up in the future.
Go for it!
You know if you changed one part at a time, sooner or later the entire car would be different. Like a 32 roadster.. is it or isn't it the original titled car?
If it were a crop dusting airplane, all they do is fly to the overhaul center, swap data plates and logbooks, and fly away in a new airplane with the old numbers on it. Yes it is legal.
I'd like to thank everyone for their insight.
I really don't want to break any laws and it would be nice to have an exempt car. (not that it is emissions laws are strongly enforced in KY) However, I really feel strongly about the car having the proper vin#. I wouldn't ever sell it. I probably wouldn't even drive it that often. I even plan on scaring my son into not selling it from beyond the grave.
I'm actually not sure how anyone would ever know, except you fine people. I mean I'm not talking about just changing the vin plate. The plan was to switch either the entire firewall or the top plate containing the vin tag, defrost vents, windshield wiper mounts... (I'm rambling and probably creating logic to justify what I want to do)
I still haven't had a chance to make any calls yet.
Reminds me of a discussion on vette motor stamping from a while back...
I agree with Ponch and Farna..I woudl build the 75 in honor of my sister..paint it and detail it like the 77 was..and do the dash plaques deal..
In the veterans area we do this to commemorate a fellow that was lost..
I agree with the last statement. Build a replica of your sisters car using the 75 and whatever parts you can from the 77. There isn't much point in transferring the VIN plate if you have the title for the 75. If you did use the 77 VIN plate once you apply for a title it will have your name on it.
You'd be better off to make a plaque with the 77 VIN and title (if you have it -- should still have your sister's name on it?) or a photo of your sister and/or the original car, and a plate saying it's a replica built to honor your sister's memory. The VIN and title won't matter in any case -- no one remembers that the VIN was hers, they remember the car itself. If it looks like her car and people recall it, that's all that matters.
As far as legality... if you own both cars, and you're not doing the swap to circumvent some kind of law (such as emissions -- if 75 is exempt and 77 isn't, you'd have a hard time convincing a cop/judge that wasn't your intent...) or sell a stolen car, I'd do it without saying a word to anyone. Someone has to have reason to complain and bring charges. The only way that might happen is if you're involved in a wreck. The insurance company could claim the car was illegally operated and therefore your policy is invalid. But they would have to know about or have reason to suspect the swap.
|If the 75 is better and you have a title, it only makes sense to go with it...I know the sentimental attachment is there, but you can put as much of your sisters car on the 75 as you can....Only you will know the difference.
I know what I'm doing is a bit crazy. The body of the 75 is pretty nice (except around the back glass) and I have the title for it. My sisters 77 is a complete disaster and I don't have the title. The 77's body is way too far gone. If I were to rebuild it (not that I have the knowledge to do so) I would end up with pretty much everything new except the firewall. I thought switching them would be an easier solution. Especially since I was going to have to buy a parts car anyway.
I'll try and call about it today.
Hey paulo1, I was under the impression that there is a vin# on the front frame. I haven't found it yet but mine is covered in undercoat and rust. I could be wrong.
|paulo 1
|I just swapped VINs between 2 Camaros.One of those cases where the main body on one was so much better that economically it was the intelligent thing to do.Both cars belonged to the same client.Actually 3 Camaros.We made 1 out of 3.And to tell you the truth,I do not fell bad at all.As a honest and dedicated restorer,to me the main body is just another part.In this particular car the whole dash can be unbolted and transplanted.I am not in the States but it would be illegal here too.And these cars do not have VIN codes stamped elsewhere.
Which body are you using?
That is what I would be going by............the firewall is only a small part of the main body.
....replace the VIN tag if such removal and replacement "...is reasonably necessary for the repair...".
There's the phrase. REASONABLY NECESSARY.
Can you take the plate out of squashed car and weld it into a good car of a different year?........ mmmmmmm?
Please post back on this thread and let us know what you find out. I am curious about KY.
Down here you have to have both titles and submit them to the state for retitling as one vehicle.
Thanks for the info!
I will still call the KY HP to get more info but you have set my mind at ease.
There are a lot of double and triple negatives in the text, but the bottom line is that it is illegal to swap VIN plates with the intent to commit fraud. The legal owner of the vehicle or a designated repair shop IS allowed to remove and replace the VIN tag if such removal and replacement "...is reasonably necessary for the repair...". I had a long talk with the vendor selling the repro Camaro bodies at Carlisle last summer and as a business owner you can bet he has had his lawyer research this in detail.
Think about it this way. Say you own a brand new GM pickup and a tree falls on the cab. You can run down to the GM dealer and buy a brand new body-in-white cab. This new cab does not come with a VIN tag - you must swap the one from your old crushed cab. One caveat is that state law may override federal in this instance, so be sure you know the requirements in your specific state.

1980 monte 406 SBC
Hey guys, I was on my way to the doc earlier and I passed a car forsale. It was a 1980 monte carlo not SS. It had a 406 SBC in it, TH400. I chech the #'s to be sure and the pan shape on the tranny.
The guy told me it It had coated hyperutectic pistons not forged, and said he wasn't sure about all the motor specs cuz he has someone else build all his motors for him. He did have quick release valve covers and hit had 461 camel hump heads on it. He said there had been some performance work done to the heads but was not sure what. He says the TH400 has a TCI race kit (clutches, full manual valve body, modulator gone, stage 3 kit) full spool rear end 456 gears He wasn't sure what brand though. strange axels.
He says he has all the info at home in a folder, But the car was at his shop which was where I talked to him at. Car comes with monster Tach w/ light. tras brake, 2 sets hoosier slicks 1 sets used. He showed me some 1/8 mile ET slips and the slowest one was a 7.42, but this was with a dominator 850 carb. He claims someone stole the dominator off the car sittin at his shop at night while he was at home. so he just has a eddie performer 750 on it now. It will start and run decent, but the carb on it he says is why its running kinda rough..... He has 2500 firm on it, you guys think its worth it, If he can provide this mystery folder to me??? I just think 2500 for a 7.40 car is a little too good..... is it?? the body is straight but desperately needs paint
I'd pass if it were my money.
I have enough receipts and time slips to sell about 5 cars :thumbup: I find it odd that he knows so little about the car and has a convenient excuse for why it doesn't run strong now. Most racers could tell you about every bolt in their car. It has mediocre heads, mystery internals, and a bunch of promises.
Just my opinion, only you can decide what it's worth to you.
Never heard of an 850 dominator. Seems like the owner may be confused by some other facts to - like how fast the car ran.
my thoughts too guys. He claims he's just the owner/driver and has nuthing to do with the building of it. .. but who knows, not realy worth it to me. The only thing the caught my eye was a 406. I've been lookin for a SBC 400 for several years now and anyone in my neck of the woods that has em won't part for less that a grand with no garentee of if its even good or not. kinda a crap shoot
A grand is quite a chunk for a 400. I paid 125 for my 4bolt. I assume your in Indiana?? , if so look on Craigslist for Indianapolis or what ever city they list that is closest to you. I just looked and found a 400 in running cond. in Indianapolis for $250. Plug in 400 to search.
You could be missing a good deal, 7.40 with humps and a 406 is doable esp with that gear.neighbors camaro is popping 7.72 with a 350 292h cam and double humps.and 12.5 to comp. with eddy 750 carb.If it has a 9 inch in it or 8.5 10 bolt you can get half your money back on just the rearend.Then again it could be a 305 in disguise with a miss your call and good luck with your decision either way.
I think I'd join the nay-sayers on this one. It sounds like there are too many unknowns with that engine and the rough engine may be due to some other problems the seller is hiding.
1980 monte 406 SBC
Who cares about the motor. I love 1980 Montes. Hence the name espo1980. Look the car over well. If it looks like it's in good shape, trim, body, frame, interiors are good and no rust. I'd buy it. It's a hell of a car and fun to drive. I've been driving mine for almost 14 years. It's a rare car if you ask me. Offer $2000.00!
1980 monte 406 SBC
Just thought I would add something else.....There wasn't an SS Monte in 1980. There was a v-6 3.8 turbo 231 edition. Those models had 3.42 rear end ratios and factory turbo hood scoop mounted just off center on the drivers side. Not many of those left at all, at least not out here on the eastern shore "rust country".

text: http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/bestoftv/2011/02/17/exp.pn.youtube.arrest.hln?hpt=T2 I didn't know how to title this in one line so sorry if the title of the thread is confusing. A 21 year old man went to a school and sang for a group of kids. Later he edited the video and put in a very explicit song. He is now under arrest and facing a possible 20 year sentence and having to register on a sex offender list for 25 years along with any fines. Is this right? I see things like this on every single late night show out there. Just off the top of my head, Jimmy Kimmel or someone does a "unnecessary censhorship" segment and it often censors children on Sesame Street or something to make them seem to be saying really crude things. Yes, sometimes even sexual. Of course it is bleeped so nothing is truly said, it is just an illusion, but it is using children and adult situations to make something funny. This seems like something Chelsea Handler could film and the whole world would laugh but this guy does it and he is now a sex offender? I don't think what he did was right, but I think throwing him in jail is a huge over reaction. At most he owes an apology to the children and their parents but I am not sure anything he did was illegal. Having said all of this, I also haven't seen the video because it was pulled from youtube. Maybe it really is that disturbing but what stands out as the key factor here is he did NOT sing the song to the kids. He went back to edit it in to get the shock factor he was looking for.

Q and A with Rollinsville's Malai Llama
May 3, 2012
Band name: Malai Llama
Where does the name of your band come from? Our band name is a reflection of the advances we have made since originally forming Bob Molly.
Your home base: Rollinsville, CO
Date playing in Summit County: Tonight (Friday, May 4)
Location playing in Summit County: Alma's Only Bar
What type of music do you play? Fusion / Hip Hop
If your band were a dog, what breed would it be, and why? A Saint Bernard, because we're larger than life.
If you had to compare yourself to another band, who would it be? We are very diverse and hard to compare to another band; if we had to though, Sound Tribe, because their music also reflects influences from Hip Hop to Jazz.
What sets your band apart? We have such a wide range of influences from Hip Hop to Jazz and our music reflects that. Our music is a conglomeration of everything from 30's music up to the most modern electronica.
What's been your craziest experience on the road? On tour with Bone Thugz N Harmony in Texas our van overheated the entire way home, it was over 100 degrees out and it took us an extra 12 hours to get back, that was the last time that Llama bus was ever used!
Is your music geared toward mosh pits or foot tapping? Neither, our music is geared towards getting people sweaty on the dance floor.

text: I own the PT92 in all black and have never had an issue with it to date. I just got back from the range yesterday and had no misfires, FTF, or stovepipes. I consider it to be the best pistol I own. I really cannot speak to how well the finish holds up as i have only put about 250 rounds thorough mine so far. Based on what I have seen so far, reliability is very good and I would not be afraid to trade or buy for it. Good luck and let us know how it turns out.

Guys, I need your help! I'm running it to a deadline for my armor. Somebody wants me to make an appearance next Wed. and I'm way behind. I know from a lot of you this has happened before and you've had to make shortcuts that you went back and fixed/upgraded later. I'm gonna find myself doing that.
I'm using the trash can method for my custom. I know that chest, abdomen, thigh, shin all come from the 13gal; shoulder and instep come from the 8 gal. Problem lies wth the back armor. I've been searching all over the fourms for two days now trying to find a thread on the size Sterilite container to use for you back.
What size trash bin for your back armor?!?!

'"You don't expect games like that to happen," said Buffalo defenseman Brian Campbell, who had two assists after being named captain for the month of December prior to the game. "It was a bonus, obviously, and guys deserved it. It's something we can build off of."'
