Default Garage Action Shot #2

Tonight was a good night. Let me know if you see any problems.


Look how nice that cam looks in it's home || FMS box - Coyles Chain - Are Coyles chains any good?


What the hello do you do with this??? Seriously now my Crower 15511 timing chart states timings with 4 Deg Advance @ the crank.
Do you think that means 4 Deg. is ground into the cam or that I need to use the 4A slot? Help a beginner out

easy on that cam lube bud, a thin coat is fine, you dont have to drown the poor thing. install the cam straight up, and cloyes timing chains are excellent.

btw, im in the market for a digital camera. your pictures look really clear. what kind of camera do you have?

Default Kodak

DC3400 2 Megapixel. It takes 1760X1168 pixel pictures. I actually shrank those to 500X300 for the bandwidth challenged.

Kodak is not a sexy name eletronics supplier, but the cameras work great.

1. Get one of 2+ megapixels
2. At least 2X optical zoom, digital zoom is garbage stuff.
3. Compact flash ready, I have a 128MB card, it holds 221 high quality pictures.
4. You must get the LCD viewfinder type, they roxor, mine is 1.5"


With 2megapixels you can print out up to 5X8" print that rival professional. With 3megapixel you can go 8X10 prints.

I drowned the poor shaft because it may be a month before lift off of the 5.0 and I did not want any rust. Will extra hurt anything?

I use a Kodak DX 3600 for work, my only complaint is you have to wait 6 or 7 seconds between shots. It probably wouldn't mean much when just taking snap shots but i take pix of cars all day long (about 6 to 8 of each car) and it really really gets annoying standing there tapping your foot waiting for what seems like 20 min for the dam camera to cycle ! Other than that its a great camera ... we really give them a workout ... i've dropped mine numerous times with little to no ill effect ... they get rained on tossed around and used alot and i haven't had any problems with mine to date

Oh and Bobasaurus ... the pry bar err screwdriver isn't big enough

Default Ah the screwdriver

It is actually a rat tail file, that is a used camshaft and it had a tiny burr I noticed while lubbing it up
