    What have you done to your square lately??

    It’s a power distribution box I mounted for the fuel pump and fan circuits. Also ran a heavy cable directly from the alternator for charging. (Maintained the existing wire from alternator to the factory distribution box on the firewall.) I tabbed a plastic cover for it and attached the cover...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Your post reminded me of the car show last Saturday. I had my 75 Blazer entered (top removed) and 3 different people asked me if it was hard cutting the top off my truck.:superhack:

    This is my late father’s Hamilton Railroad watch, which he had when he worked for the railroad (where he met my mother). These were special watches issued by the railroad and routinely calibrated to keep all railroad employees synchronized to prevent accidents. It works perfectly and I...

    A Technical Comedy [Only After the Fact]

    Too funny! Glad you got it shutdown. Reminds me of watching that old movie “The China Syndrome”. As a retired engineer in the nuclear power industry the movie was mostly a comedy, especially when these guys did all kind of mods and bypasses and such as they struggled to trip the reactor when...

    Stock fuel pump has a vent line. Edelbrock don’t.

    It has worked without any problems since I installed it last summer. I have no idea what the flow rate is in the return line. During installation I briefly ran the engine and verified flow but that was it. The filter is fed by an electric Holley pump mounted back at the tank. It feeds an...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Last week when I was putting my dash back together I realized I had overlooked that I was missing the short section of expandable ductwork that connects the far right air register to the rest of the ductwork. Apparently it had been removed at some point and never reinstalled. I ordered one from...

    ****CAUTION, PLEASE READ****

    If you look at GMSB members you find thousands of new members with few or no posts. This seems to me to be a big security risk. They should be removed as members. There’s got to be a way to do that other than 1 at a time, as the moderators don’t have the time to do it that way.
