Respecting!

I like your gun. My personal fav is the sniper rifle...lol! I think the way things are going up here in Canada, we will eventually go the same route as our cousins in the USA. There have been a number of home invasions up here in the west end of Montreal mostly by the same person or description of that person. They were done in the early morning and were mostly non-violent. Except that the invader is now getting more cocky and pistol whipped a seventy year old man a couple of weeks ago. Last week he shot and killed a 60+ year old man in front of his son and wife. This guy is getting dangerous and is now a killer and an invader. They are trying to find him but he keeps turning up in different neighborhoods at different times. I would like to see him get caught. There are almost no households in Canada with guns. Many Canadians like hunting and fishing and most of the firearms in Canada are hunting rifles. That is why this guy is so confident. If he had to worry about the next house that he invades having an owner with a gun, I think he would think twice about invading homes. He is a serial home invader with now several home invasions to his credit. Some only blocks away from my home! The problem is that this has created some copy cats to try it too.
Damn thats sick, I hope they catch him soon. A springfield XD 9mm is my bedtime friend...

Great work. Must have took a TON of time. When I polished my Z calipers, I used a flap wheel to great reduce the sanding time.

But the gun stuff has to go guys. Edit your posts to remove the pics please. Thanks

Hey Jeff92SE, how you do'in? How's the ride? Long time no speak!

Actually I had talked about this spacer in the intake plenum a while ago. So I guess I was right. I had said that it was a good bank for the buck. The problem with that type of mod is that you have to reprogram the stock computer to change the timing in order to take full advantage of it.

Good question, Warren's back in NY today from FL and when his headers finally come in, he will come down here and stay at my place overnight while the install happens. I personally don't have any immediate plans to go to FL. I have family in Hollywood Fl though...

Since I was Navy, watch this Video, as a military member (past, present) you will appreciate it more than most (worth all 11 minutes)...

Later bro, respecting...
I don't think you have to have been active (or retired) to appreciate that video, if you're grandfathers are still around (like one of mine is) most likely they're WWII vets. Those guys will remind you what it's about.........

Update.

OK today it took me about 2 hours in 92+ heat to remove my old manifold in my garage using hand tools and learning at the same time. Anyway this is my current progress...







After 5 hours of non stop polishing...





Tomorrow I will install when I get off of work. Damn it's late!!!

Sorry, the manifold I removed is being sent to Ramberg as a replacement for sending his to me. PM Ramberg and ask, if he agrees, you send him the cash and I'll mail the manifold to you instead. But only if he tells me too, you understand business is business...
