    Not a little British car

    Just wanted to say thanks

    Yesterday, I could not get to this site. I emailed DanR and he got Greggers and Jim Stone involved. I am happy to report that, due to whatever they did, the site is now found and loads again. Thanks to all. If I missed anyone that worked on this, sorry. And thanks to you to.

    Is this in a Alpine?

    Found this pic on a site about Mustang engines by year. This was in the 1979 section. Am I wrong or is this in an Alpine? Noticed the steering box, tie rod on the firewall, and I think I can see part of a brace.

    Falcon 9 Crew 2 Launch

    Saw the launch this morning from my backyard in NE Florida. Probably the coolest launch I’ve ever seen. Saw the stage separation and the first stage burns to return to the recovery drone ship. The conditions where such that you could see pulsing waves in the sky. Watched the second stage until...

    Are forged pistons worth the added expense?

    I found that Racer Walsh has forged pistons for the Ford 2.8. With my planned engine mods would they be worth the added expense. Mods include ported/polished heads, 2.9 valves, 2.9 crank, offy intake, 390 Holley, cam (undecided which one), headers, cylinder bore .030 over. The Racer Wales...
