You guys are just too funny. 😎 😎 Anyway, I have ordered some of the o-ring crush washers and some copper (like factory) versions. I CAN report that...
oh my! Did he not see you? You were clearly alongside before entering the turn.
I don't use a torque wrench. I just tighten them with a Ridgid 1/2" 18v driver, mark their position, and monitor them throughout the day. I've found t...
No discount pricing, though? 🤣 🤣 Seriously a new SR10 is something I dream about... I'd even be ok with the center seat.
And work on those biceps too! I always make sure I pull off the rear wheels first. Front wheels get placed gently on the front diffuser if they are re...

@rlm-dan That is interesting for sure. How do you deal with oil temps with hot coolant in the engine and cooler coolant in the radiators? I thought th...
Yes -- me too: on the roll bar tube. I've seen them done on the backs of mirrors though that's on gel-coat rather than the powder coat of the tube.
@rjbender Love it! I'm stealing your idea! Similar to that, I use the AiM LEDs on the dash (I have an MXS 1.2). Solid Red is too low, slow flashing ...
@slowcar An oil thermostat needs to have minimal pressure drop. MOCAL makes good stuff -- I wonder if that's what they are fitting?
