    if the viper's new vvt works well, will we see SOHC engines "soon", running as well as DOHC do now? would the possible complexity of this keep it only in the viper/ or "hemi's"? *can be moved if need be*
  2. HAHA, try this? sorry i can't help, only crap i get is usually 1 cold a year. i don't have seasonal allergies.
  3. WOW! hehe, great background music too hhaha
  4. wow, i missed this voting... pretty cool hehe
  5. any reason the battery would be dead? hehe i'd think that's the first thing to check ...
  6. i'll do my dirty work .. fine! i'm finding low 7sec timesmid to low 6's possible?
  7. that'd make the atlas f'n quick, i bet.....0-60 times anyone?
  8. i put GM.... 1 cause few others did, and......the buick concepts before the enclave.... the velite, bengal, lacross oh the lacross....
  9. tib replacement? or something above that?

    my bro does that in his MR2, hoping to get his LT1 Z out there soonish. i think his membership is 40 for the year and 20 per race maybe..?
  11. so lots of this is just preliminary info? it's nice, but you're right, it'll be edited again should be exciting.
  12. only DX10 would pursuade me to upgrading, but i'd need new expensive parts for that anyway
  13. yesterday i saw the last riviera style with park ave, ports... but instead of in a line, they were in a triangle pattern...UGH
  14. few silverado's, a sierra today, outlook a few days ago, and an acadia once in a while
  15. any detail if this has the VVT system or not?
  16. i like that body style. neat car

    of course it's a tad jumping ahead...(ls3 reveal saturday?) what will the ls3 have improved over the ls2 (other than displacement and power)? will this mean anything quickly ( by 09my) for the high value v6's? those v6's seem like a good thing for the Vue XE, the aura, g6 and the impala, for being a mid level engine. with the 08 malibu losing it's 3.5L (as of right now), will this engine continue in the "NG" Aura/G6? the impala is questionable with the zeta replacement being .."reevaluated" the 3.9L has pretty much been designated an impala (excluding the uplander) only engine, but when the 3.5L recently got the tad HP boost, why not the 3.9L? i know the 3.9L has received AFM, and is getting flex fuel for 08... what do you think the future has in store for the v6 pushrod engines at and past 09? i think everyone could agree a good manual "behind" them would be great, but unlikely? move toward a 3v setup or a DI setup? anything at all?

    http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/sfo/67310530.html it's just hilarious!!!! if it's 100% true i feel sorry for the guy having to see the car on a regular basis.
  20. i'd guess a std over bore rebuild... is it FI or carburated? this should be in the "tech section"
  21. about the mercury... supposedly it's less than the amount that would be emmited from a coal power plant over a bulbs life. of course, coal isn't everywhere, it's getting "cleaner", but still makes a huge chunk of the USA's power. The only thing with inc. and halogens over CFLs is the UV emmisions are practically 0. like LED lights.. which are getting better in the lumens/watt, better than cfl's, just the same reason to use CFL's over incandescents.the best white LED as of last year was close to 150L/W, where a inc. is in the middle teens lumens/watt, of 60w to 100w typical bulbs
  22. the REATTA... should've been a RWD.... if buick ever gets a kappa, i nominate REATTA for it's namechop/sketch contest idea?
  23. fixed and repeated for these guys that missed this note.. unless dodgefan says different
  24. i have cases of lead foot, but typically don't see the need for it, now when i had the 83 regal wagon and gas was $1... that was a little different... the raw power of maybe 110hp in a 2+ ton car with a 3speed... yeah!!!!!!
  25. just imagine a two mode behind that diesel... putting this in at least the H3 would be a GREAT start here, and there, surely
