    1970 & 1971 Kawasaki 100cc G4TR's

    Here is the cold start video of when we first brought it home and put some fuel into it to see if it would come to life or not. It took just a couple of kicks to get it to light off...

    1970 & 1971 Kawasaki 100cc G4TR's

    I fully plan on tearing it apart to clean and fix all the little issues.

    1970 & 1971 Kawasaki 100cc G4TR's

    That is cool that you used to race an IT back when they were new. This one most definitely started life as a 125. My bike has the crossover exhaust like this one shown below. Exhaust pipe exits on the left side of the bike and has the white fenders. On the 175 from 1981, the exhaust came out...

    1970 & 1971 Kawasaki 100cc G4TR's

    I am a moron. I know better than to peruse Marketplace. Anyway, I saw this ad for an old dirt bike that needs some attention, but ran last year. His price was $350 or trade for SBC parts... We went back and forth some and he wanted a full set of 1.6 rockers and the best I had was a mixed set...

    Best Flowmaster

    We have a Flowmaster Y pipe and cat on our 1995 Sub now and it works like a champ. Couldn't pass before and then after it passed with flying colors.

    Best Flowmaster

    I like the 40 series with an H pipe. Had this on my '72 Nova and it sounded great on a simple mild small block. Current set up on my truck with its no compression 454 is a set of Jones Flowpack single chamber mufflers in a 2-1/2 inch exhaust that stops just before the axle. This truck has...

    Sweet truck for sure. I had a '79 Big 10 in that color pattern for a while.

    Time to put a sound system in the hotrod, wanna bounce some ideas

    Currently I just have a set of Kicker 6-3/4" separates in the doors of the truck. They are simply hooked to an amp under the seat that has a RCA to 3.5mm cord that controls the music from a phone. With the tweeter up higher in the door panel, it really works well. My previous truck just had the...

    In your opinion?

    Clean it out and give it some fresh gaskets. Should be good to go!

    lowered c30 454 what headers to use

    I currently only have the one 2wd square body with the 454 in it. I *think* the small block headers work as well, but I cannot verify it at this time. I have small blocks. I have small block headers. But not in the correct configuration. 4wd's I have no clue about if the car stuff crosses over.

    8.1 Vortec VS 383 Stroker VS 6.0 Iron LS

    I would go L-29 454 Gen 6 big block. All the after market you could want. Power on tap for any level of want you could have. Easy to find parts everywhere. Can be plucked out of 1996 to 00 suburbans and trucks for not much if you keep your eyes peeled. My kid and his buddies were at the Pick N...

    Lawn/ Garden tractors/ Riding Mowers, Cool Mods and tinkering

    The little nerd also has all of these lurking in the back yard. The green and silver Montgomery Ward is the best looking out of the pack for sure. This is the first one that I said he could bring home. It currently needs a new steering setup in it as the original one is stripped out. But...

    Lawn/ Garden tractors/ Riding Mowers, Cool Mods and tinkering

    Jeebus. These are all Max's junkers. He went hogwild on finding them a few years ago. This is his latest and most expensive one, a Craftsman with blade and wheel weights on it. Runs like a champ. He also found this other Craftsman for free. It has a better looking hood on it, so he swapped...

    Ford infotainment into 79 c10

    Well get after it and tell us all how you do it on this thread. I wanna see how it works now that I have invested 4.39 minutes into reading this thread. We like lots of photos... :popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::popcorn:

    What have you done to your square lately??

    NOT SELLING THE CANOPY. You are correct in thinking that I want it off so that I can haul our treasures home from two days at the swap meet. Canopy will just go back into storage in the backyard for now. For as expensive as they seem to be now, I will not let go of this one as I am to frugal to...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I haven't done a thing to it in a few months. It has just sat there being patient. Max had to move it the other day and pumped the gas once to set the choke and it fired right up like it ran the day before. Love these things. The canopy is going to come off this weekend and we will take it to...

    95 Chevy water in passenger floor board

    We have the same thing on our 1995 Sub. My son said he found on a forum where some said it was coming from the cowl area. I am not entirely sure where, but rain water leaks in...

    C10 LIMITED SLIP VS LOCKER VS SPOOL

    I had an aggressive Detroit TruTrac in our daily driver 1995 Suburban and it worked great. You could hear the inner tire scrubbing when leaving the driveway. Until it didn't. But that may have been caused by a slightly bent axle tube putting a weird side load on the thing. After that one went...

    Newbie Vortec Cam Question

    Here is the engine in the boys truck.... And how it sounds... Again, this is a very mild 307.

    Newbie Vortec Cam Question

    Yup. You have a single plane intake. All cylinders feed from a single common plenum. Great for high speed. You want a dual plane intake. My son has the Summit Vortec heads on his 307 and is using this manifold from Ebay with good success. Well the first one had a porosity issue, but it has a...

    Paul's 1972 Truck...

    So we drove away from Jesus taking the wheel from him. I drove it bucking and snorting to a nearby high school parking lot where we could work on the tuning for a bit before we drove it the 30 miles home. Max reset the Edelbroke carb from where it was set. Then we fiddled with the timing and...

    Paul's 1972 Truck...

    Factory cab lights Disc brakes and 5 lug wheels. The tires look good, but they date code back to 2001. New ones will be installed soon.... It has headers that are welded to the dual exhaust. Kinda small and too quiet. But never fear as the Portland Swap Meet is coming up in a month and I am...
