    West Coast Members of the Old School, check in!

    I haven't checked the forums in years but am still around. Can't say I don't still hold a place in my heart for the good ol' Burgermaster days. Hopefully I can catch up with some of the old crew this summer. Curt, congrats on the family - times have changed!

    STRIKE = rebuild on hold!

    Well looks like the strike is ending, so hopefully now some local Mustangs will begin getting the go-fast parts they deserve :D . I just got hired on for a non-union corporate position and should be starting work in the next couple of weeks. I'll be glad to have all of this resolved when I...

    Pesky wheel locks (help)

    They haven't screwed anything up yet. I was just curious whether or not they would be willing to attempt to take it off, and if so, if they where capable of doing so without taking forever to do it. I wasn't trying to dis on the Schwab (as I know that you, and at least one other SN person...

    Pesky wheel locks (help)

    Hey guys I ran into a problem trying to pull the wheels on my 89 earlier today. I guess the PO didn't replace a fairly stripped wheel lock on my right rear tire - and as a result, I can't for the life of me get the $%3$ thing off. In my attempts I've shaved the teeth flat on a pair vice...

    Anyone able to lend a hand possibly?

    It sounds like you are in good hands as far as technical advice is concerned, so I wont bother to offer anything in that department. I will say, though, that I have at many times (one in particular which STILL causes my blood pressure to rise) been through similar fits of absoulute frustration...

    Finall thoughts on Presedential race..

    This is a tired argument against “victimless crimes”. It sounds to me like you are making the case that it is outside the jurisdiction of government to regulate that which occurs between consenting adults. Sorry, it may disagree with you conception of how this country works, but this idea has no...

    Finall thoughts on Presedential race..

    That's not what it means. What it means is, people in more rural areas tend to identify more with the ideas and values of the Republican party. The the fear of a terrorist attack had very little causal affect on the voting patterns. New York didn't vote for Bush becuase they believe that...

    Finall thoughts on Presedential race..

    d'oh!! :D Hey, we agree on something!! The urban/rural split is something that has been long in the making, and in many ways largely reinforced by the policies and tactics of both parties over the years. You can trace this pattern to its beginings with the "New Deal coalition" and the...

    POLL

    Yep the rotating assembly is stock as a rock. I noticed a big difference on my seat-o-the pants dyno when I went to the new heads, though I still think there is more there with some better tuning. The 289 heads with the small valves and small chambers were great at the bottom end, but I found...

    POLL

    I haven't had it to the track since I did the aluminum heads, comp cams 280H, cobra rockers, headers and exhaust. I want to wait untill I get the Lentech and new convertor installed, get some better tires, and go through and replace all the susp. bushings (she gets a little wobbly at high...

    POLL

    And for all of you who don't like either choice, here is the only viable third-party candidate, and the one who's getting my vote....POTUS '04 !

    POLL

    From my response: “A recent BBC poll in Iraq found”….No not FOX news, but it was a nice attempt at a cheap-shot at FOX that is far overused. Like you, I will assume, I get my information from a variety of sources. There were two ABC polls with similar data as well, but I neglected to include...

    POLL

    Our economy will flourish regardless of whether or not people agree with a specific military action – 1) That’s what NAFTA and the WTO are for, to keep protectionism down, regardless of the motivation. 2) Besides, we have a trade deficit tilted significantly on the exporting side, you think they...

    POLL

    This is simply your opinion, stated in a way to appear as fact. I've never heard anything about Bush saying that he is infallible - especially justified on the account of religion. You made the claim that he feels that he is "annointed by god" and that because of that he believes he can "do no...
