Sorry, BadgeZ28, my bad. I've always thought of the Eaton as a "screw" type and the older, GM style as being the "roots" type.
When I first met Jerry Magnusen in about 2001, I asked about running one of his Superchagers with a carb, at that time he didn't like the idea of...
Hi Craig, I'm Keith and I've owned Kenz Muffler for the past 37 years. I don't know if Ken ever responded to you about the dragster, but he's...

This car sold at the Barrett-Jackson Saturday night. Don't remember the price, but quite a bit.
"Sterlized"? I wonder how long it was before someone had an "OH DAMN" moment?
Dan, when I first used this color back in '94, the color chip called it "Basic Green". Now its just a bunch of numbers in a formula that is very...
[ATTACH]Built this to drive everyday and did for several years. Lately i've been driving my '55 Chevy pickup more than this one tho.
Yes. I'm 66 and the day after Thanksgiving, got my 55 truck back from the upholster after having taken it to bare metal, straightened the few...
