Lounge / Re: Podcast?
Could be fun!

I hate the sound of my own voice too so I get what you are saying.  Will the podcast be with video?

What will be your plan for schedule?  Weekly or bi-weekly?

Replaced the starter Saturday.  Nice to be able to drive the car again even though it's too hot out.

Also changed the read end fluid and put the jewelry on the rear end.  So far no leaks.

How is the farm?

Hopefully you get time to drive the car this summer.

Engine Tech / Re: engine shut down / restart all within 1/2 second
I had a distributor begin to seize in a 351W ('79 TBird) that did some wonky similar stuff once or twice before it seized and took out the cam gears.  Could this be a change in timing to cause this affect rather than the motor actually stalling for a moment?

Good luck with the surgery!
I damaged the joint in my big toe once that caused it to mostly fuse.  I had surgery on it in 2016 to reform the joint.  Recovery took a bit of time (months).  Hoping you have a quicker recovery!

I bet adding the insulation also helped with lighting due to the reflecting aspect of it?

Some jewelry arrived for the TC yesterday


I hate anything to do with gear oil so this is to motivate myself to change it.

Last October, my friend bought a, '06 Z06 Corvette out of Ohio.    Took a flight with him to drive the car back home.  He bought it for a track car (and fun) that runs compared to his two RX7's.  I have been displaced a bit in the garage but that is the way it should be.

Head work, Long tube headers, and a centrifugal blower make it interesting to drive on the street without getting carried away or in a ditch.

Those valve covers look phenomenal with the Thunderbird on them.

Hope it stays warm for you.  We've been in a deep freeze in the northeast.
