    Trailer Question

    Milt most 205 tires are not in 10-14 ply. They also turn much faster than 215 and a lot faster than 16" wheels. I've run many of them, but not any more. Later man.

    Trailer Question

    Never run 205 size tires, put 215 10ply on if your running 15". Or up grade to 235/85-16 10-14 ply. Most all spring axles have a bow in middle when trailer is empty. Put a level on rim out side when loaded and see if wheel is straight up & down.

    Trailers and CDL

    OK guys this is how it is. Ya'll know I've towed trailers for years with pickups. Reg your pickup for 26,000 lbs, put NOT FOR HIRE on both sides of bed. Put NOT FOR HIRE on trailer. Yes the 26,000 will cost you $$$ for reg. but will get you out of a jam some time. This whole thing is about "Road...

    I built the tunnel ram setup for blown-t and 18 other people. My Mustang wheel stander had a tunnel ram blower setup on methanol with 610in FORD. Never had any problems with them. I have also built 2 blower manifolds.

    Fuel Economy and Performance can both be had, but what are YOU gonna do about it?

    I've put a Powerjection 3 on my blown 4.6 DOHC FORD. With a carb I was getting 16-19 mpg. With the EFI set up I'm looking for 25+ mpg. Lots of tinkering and a lap top in da bucket to come. This unit is self contained and is there third one out. I wanted them to work out all the bugs before a...

    New blower manifold self built

    Like you Screaming Metal I've run blowers for many years on wheelstanders, pulling tractors, fuel altereds, and boats. But in this case the pully is 3 1/2" and the belt is 3". So the belt is making full contact with the pully and not hanging over the edge. My idler pully I made and has higher...

    New blower manifold self built

    I have no idea what the HP is, but hoping to get great milage out of this combination. Was getting about 18-20mpg with a carb. Like all T Buckets its about FLASH not speed. I build things because I can and I'm not affarid to try anything once. Yes some things don't work, but I redesign and try...

    drive shaft protection?

    Easy way to build a drive shaft loop without a bender is to use a 6' or 8' pipe. Cut 2' wide, place in vise-or smash with slege hammer, weld on tabs with bolt holes, then cut in half for easy shaft removel. Install.
