What about a separate small cooler? Would open up options for mounting. Speedway Motors #91023112 Aluminum Heatsink Transmission Cooler, 12 Inch

You know whats screwy - there was a sign installed by the city, govt 2 years ago - 100 feet past my driveway "Beware of Bears? Guess what - it was removed by by the city, govt ?? No longer there. Bears got to eat too. Send in some dumbass "eco-campers"

That's a nice part. Impressive automated permanent mold setup and the forging also. But, I don't get it. I saw a drift event at Barrett Jackson 10 years ago. Is that still a "thing"?

Ignition Coil Control Wires With the ignition coils relocated from on top of the valve covers to the lower sides of the engine block, it was obvious I would have to rewire their control circuits. The original sub-harness was a compact unit that contained three spliced circuits and one control...

I used to go to Indy in the 60's with my dad. He was a USAC member so we got pit passes. That was a great time for racing, innovators and privateers. I seems like the whole thing collaped after the Granitelli turbine cars. The Youtube channel has some interesting stuff from the time. Art...

Holy crap! While I was working on the doors in the hinge area, I realized I still needed to install the spring in the upper hinge that provides the detents so the door won't close on you. I hade the springs (for a decade) and looked at a Youtube video of how to do this. Piece of cake...

That guy doesn't give himself enough credit. That looks like a lot of fun and an ambitious project that most people would have never completed. Years ago when Tony George started the IRL, I bought some parts from a sprint car fabricator in Indy. He told me that Tony George had bought up all...

Been working in running electric to the doors. My car is an early 68 (Nov 67) so there were no cutouts for the conduit as with later cars. I thought I would use contacts instead of conduit. What is available in basically Dakota Digital Magnum Shooters (OK they do look like bullets). Most...

Not really a meme but an oldie but a goody:

That is interesting. I assume the two lines going into the distribution block are F/R brake lines from the master and the 4 lines on the top are to the 4 calipers? Does the yaw sensor and wheel speed sensor data go to a separate control module? Does it control all 4 wheels?

I had never heard of this car. I think that would have changed Indy had it raced. One of the reasons I never heard of it I found in one of the posts @ Youtube: Howard Keck who owned the car Vukovich drove in1952, 53 and 54 was so sad at Vukovich's death in the Indy 1955 race, that he quit...

That doesn't look like fun at all. I can just barely see the timing mark or the distributor hold down on mine.
