    Where the hell are you guys finding rc injectors for 300 bucks?

    I've got an opportunity to pick up some RC's (w/ clips I believe) and a Walbro fuel pump with a 1,000 miles on each for $400. Is this a great or even good buy, or just so-so?

    Which Supramania members have helped you the most?

    GrimJack convinced me to tackle my BHG a couple years ago and got me hooked. :) I've taken a lot from Jdub, and JJ has dragged me by my ear to a good answer once or twice. ;) I've also used Dylan's How To (cwapface) threads quite a few times - there's nothing like a picture walk through on...

    Excited yet nervous...

    That is an amazing story, and you and your wife are just as amazing. I cried more than my son did when he was born, :) and I could not have imagined giving him up. Your graduating son is the perfect example of the good that can come from doing the right thing, even when it is incredibly hard...

    Definitive Difference Between 7MGE & 7MGTE Oil Pumps?

    Thanks to everybody who helped out on this. Unfortunately the pump isn't going to work out for my build, which really sucks since it was a great price on a new Aisin pump. The great news is that 88YotaTurbo agreed to refund and put it back up for sale. Anybody needing a GE oil pump needs to...

    Metal Head Gasket Experience

    Not at all... Anyone who has screwed up a stock HG repair should first determine where they went wrong, and then make sure they don't repeat the error. Anyone using a MHG should take pains to meet the intentionally set manufacturer's RA specs. Anybody not willing to do either of the...

    Metal Head Gasket Experience

    I hate to be a naysayer, but strictly from a common sense perspective, consider the following: 1. Your stock HG job failed 2. You plan on the same route (machined head, cleaned block only) with a finicky MHG 3. You expect the MHG to somehow fix what went wrong with a more forgiving...

    Definitive Difference Between 7MGE & 7MGTE Oil Pumps?

    There's no way to tell if the oil pump in this thread is suitable for a GTE? http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=71809 Anybody? I wonder how many of the freshly rebuilt RK's were due, at least somewhat, to using a ge pump in a gte if it's that hard to tell them...

    Definitive Difference Between 7MGE & 7MGTE Oil Pumps?

    So a search shows me... 1) There is a difference in Toyota part numbers, and 2) The pump body is longer on the gte pump due to longer gears, and more pumping volume. If you don't have one of each to compare body length, and you have an Aisin pump that you got from somewhere other than...

    If I finally get my rod bolts in this week, I will be off and running on my build at last! As long as I get it done and it's running right I WILL BE THERE THIS YEAR!! I promise, Jon! I'm planning on taking the fam on vacation in July, so no excuses!

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    Instead of working on figuring out what's wrong with the gun, I would seriously consider trading it off, Clueless. From an ease of carry perspective, I really liked my KelTec, but when I started getting light primer strikes after a few hundred rounds, I used it to help fund my current pistol in...

    21st birthday stories

    Mine was 17 years ago. I hit a bunch of bars with some college friends, got drunk, ate my first pickled egg and then puked in a urinal. I woke up the next morning to a ringing phone and a killer hangover to find my grandma died the night before - guess I could have done better... I hope yours...

    ^^^ x2. I haven't been impressed with any Glock I've shot, but it is hard to argue with the huge, dedicated following I guess... Regarding the Taurus, search this thread, b/c I am pretty sure that SC has carried a Taurus 45 cal for a decade, iirc. In fact, I plan to buy my daughter a .38...

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    In my experience there two things that matter in CCW: Size and weight, in that order. Regarding size, make sure you go thin (single stack!) then look for a short grip. Most good smaller pistols have mag/grip extensions that make range shooting much more fun. Don't worry about high cap; you...
