Re: Mornin' Y'all

Congrats! Once you change your ID you can enjoy real gun shows rather than Gun shows that sell mostly pocket knives. Grab some 1911’s and a few AR’s and a pile of Ammo.

Re: Harold Blocker

Very saddening news,

We have lost a true American patriot and a gentleman’s gentleman. There are very few like Harold and I was glad to know him. He will be missed.

David and Deidra.

Re: Boss Hoss NHRA

If you look at what it takes to get a pro stock bike down the track it is easy to see that weight and lack of gears is what hurts our bikes. Pro stock bikes are relatively low horsepower at around 360. The most significant advantage is the bikes are 605-625 pounds minimum weight depending on the bra...

The going rate to rent a pro stock engine from one of the few teams that rent them is, get this, $3,000 per pass.

Re: Boss Hoss NHRA

That much ink on a Pro Stock car would command a significant sized check. Not a cheap class to operate within.

Re: Trans Oil

This particular Trans oil is not the only one we have. I have this formulation in 20w60, 15w50, 10w40, and 5w30. So the whole list is covered. It is built with extra antioxidants to handle the heat.

Re: Trans Oil

We made this fluid not based on my knowledge of Boss Hoss trannies but based on Marv Jorgensen's knowledge. In a nutshell he explained that there was a need to maintain more pressure when the trans was warm to keep the clutch pack from disengaging. We made a heavier oil for him that has worked well ...

Re: Power Up Oil ??? Ever Use it

Never heard of it before. The guy to ask would be Oil Man. The problem with that is everyone wants to seem to argue with the guy every time he offers his educated opinion so I doubt he will chime in. Dennis, Thank you for the compliment. I have actually been pretty busy and rarely visit the forums ...

Re: WHATS THE CORRECT ANSWER

It sounds like you have had all kinds of responses so here is another one....... I have been told to reduce the air pressure or maybe it was increase (Either way Bill is not going to have 2 different air pressure in my rear tires) in the right rear tire to compensate for the crown. Do you do this? ...

Re: WHATS THE CORRECT ANSWER

If your trike pulls to the right you will have to push the rr away from the bars. Just imagine the trike would rotate around an imaginary pin in the center. change the angle of the rear relative to that point and that is where the front end will go.
