work

all work and some play...

work

we try and have fun at work.

spare time?

If you have 5 hours to kill, watch this if you like old cars. This ran as a live feed on tuesday as we put this '72 Chevelle together for Car Craft Magazine. There's worse jobs...

looks are decieving

I finished the stainless twin turbo headers for the Demon...they sure don't look like as much work as they were!!!

interesting...

Spent the day getting Ron Burgundy back together...just pulled it off the lift, backed it out of the shop to let it warm up...i think i hurt it. The #3 cylinder was the worst from the head gasket let-go and the car sat for a little bit until i could get back to it...there was some funkiness on the cylinder wall that i just figured i'd see what happens...smokes a little out that side now...D'oh! maybe it will go away.........that and i suspect the O2 sensor is toast after going to antifreeze raging waters. Oh well, two day until Irwindale, if i can just make one good pass and get kicked out for being too fast without a cage!!


#3 is the one with the red! water in it

And here it is all back together....

Car Craft

Go to your local grocery, liqueur, or book store and get a copy of the new issue of Car Craft...my turbo Mustang is on the cover doing some nice doughnut burnouts...good times.

Actually trying to get the car back together today after blowing a head gasket so we can go drag racing at Irwindale this Thursday...

boost?

Here is one of the headers i have been building for the '71 Dodge Demon for Car Craft. We are putting two 67mm Comp Turbos on the 5.7L Hemi i stuck in the car...
The header is actually upside down in this photo, the collector goes up and then one of the turbos goes happily on top...Finished building and tacking them, gotta take em apart and weld em up, put them back together, install, make tubes to hang the frontend sheetmetal, plumb the cold side, exhaust, firewall...ooof. lots left.

WORK...

Been busy at work lately...working real hard...doing burnouts and breaking stuff since this video was shot i replaced the stock trans with a Performance Automatic AODE/4R70W with a transbrake and full manual valvebody...it was killer for about an hour and 30 minutes until i blew a head gasket...555 lb-ft of torque is fun in a 3000 pound car.... My sweet Mustang will be on the cover of Car Craft soon...watch for it or check out www.carcraft.com
