Mustard based sauce??? That is so SC :) I have tried it but cant 'cotton' it at all. Its that regional thing. But the hickory wood smoke slow cooking is the southern connection :)

Ah ha something I am into... The poll is a bit tough to answer with any accuracy (yea I know its for fun :) ) For instance 'round these parts' BBQ is pork and the traditional preperation is hickory wood for smoke and then a sauce of typically, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, stock (with flavor...

Im getting a "you have voted in this poll" when I am pretty darn sure I haven't. Is it cause I looked at the poll before I tried to vote?

Looking back maybe my suggestion was not clear in my post. To get a vehicle in Papua, Go there through AU (likely he is any way). In AU buy a nice clean truck or utility of a Brand / model / fuel type commonly used in Papua. (You may want to license and insure it in AU depending on the...

I would start with changing the pressure cap on the reservoir. If your coolant was a good 50/50 mix to increase your boiling point to where it should be, its not now since you added water.

Find out whatever they use the most of on the Island and go with that. That way you are likely to have an existing support infrastructure. (As was mentioned.) Its likely 100% of their tech support comes from Australia. I would go through Aussie land on the way back, pick up a deal and have it...

If this is the case the shop is staffed by dunderheads. Move on. Maybe someone on here in you area can suggest a place. Or talk you through a DIY :)

It is neat with a 500$ influx of cash you can down convert your 8 lug floaters to 6. But to what end? The 500$ of the conversion would more than cover the premium of 8 bolt after market wheels over 6 bolt ones. Not intending to be a/an ******* (I put those * in :) ) just trying to understand if...

We have a HHR that has the 2.4 EcoTech and a stick. That thing runs like stink for a 4 banger. gets 30 ish on the hwy. I thought the standard Cruze setup was the 2.0 Ecotech? I am shocked a 1.4 turbo has more zip than a 1.8 non. Nice to know. Waiting for the turbo diesel though. Its going to be...

Cool I'll read that. I did see at the dealer a ECO gas version. 1.4 L turbo gas motor. Humm ain't that the generator motor in a Volt??? (no turbo)

That's hilarious, I did not know p+++y would get auto replaced by *****. I just added the (cat) part for giggles. :hihi: That's about as far as I go with crude words.

My wife would like that too. My wife cant stand extremes of temperature I tell her she's such a ***** (cat). I cant type her response here. :o Most of the time when I get into her car all the a/c outlets are pointed at my chest (her head) and cranked up full. :eek: Funny you should mention...

Here is the brake conversion kits I was talking about. They have them for the 14 bolt 9.5" and the cost taint to bad. http://www.blackbirdscustomtrucks.com/index7.html

That is what I was getting at. Better turbo, same HP at lower PSI, less heat, stress.... I do tend to be on the conservative side of such things. I hate breaking stuff, and having to fix it when I could be doing new stuff. :D Do the GM4 through GM8's all choke at 14 psi? I thought I...

The original 6.2 applications had the old school mechanical pump on the front of the engine driving off a eccentric on the cam. Those pumps had big diaphragms and had no problems priming themselves. They sucked real good. :thumbsup: I mention this in case you might want to go minimalist with...

Seems strange going down in lugs. I want more, for another project, my Ramcharger. Hey why not go with a disc brake conversion? I have seen kits and individual parts to do the job. A caliper bracket for the 9.5 may not be that hard to source. I know kits are available to convert the floater 14...

Use the black conductive foam if you can find any way up there in the boonies :) You live near Port Asbestos right? :hihi:

I am wondering if the 9.5" ring gear 14 bolt has the axles retained by the bearing retainer or by C clips? Break an axle....loose a wheel? :yikes:

:agreed: And IMHO the 20 psi the HX40II is set at out of the box is asking for a oil pan full of bits and pieces. I am betting limiting it to stock (ish) 10 psi will net more than stock power all other things being stock. :hihi: With a inter-cooler, well that would be a horse of a different color.

I am not understanding what has which feature, your wifes car or the remote/start/alarm box. My Sub has the remote control delete (:???: :WTF:) option, BUT an cheesy after market alarm added by the dealer before delivery to the DOD. I smell a scam... It also has an HOUR METER :cool...
