Already posted in the Wanted To Borrow Thread,

But does anyone have access to a car trailer that I could borrow on Saturday for the price of a carton?

I'm located up north east, and would need the trailer 3pm-4pm.

Not sure a hire trailer from the servo is worth $69 for one hour's of usage.

cheer, Nigel

an abundance jake? really? come on.

No: It's too dangerous

* Dr Helen Caldicott, anti-nuclear activist: “We spend millions of dollars trying to find a cure for cancer, [yet] here’s an industry that will directly propagate that hideous disease. Nuclear power is medically contraindicated.”

ok, cool. so its okay to use readioactive therapy for treating cancer, and xrays are cool, but its not okay to have 3rd and 4th gen nuclear reactors in the middle of butt f**k egypt powering the hospitals with the waste stored even further away than butt f**k egypt?

... okay...?

funnily enough, the nuclear power debate is one that comes up rather frequently at work (we have a fair bit of free time), and the 3 most popular reasons used for the 'no' argument are nuclear proliferation (even though half the people that use this argument dont actually know what it means).

terrorism, which is a pretty slim chance sorta thing considering nuclear reactors around the world have about as much security as your average nuclear weapons storage/production/destruction facility.

(if anyones ever seen 'worlds biggest fixes on discovery, this covered briefly during an episode where theyre repairing a nuclear reactor turbine, probably ex military security wearing military grade armour and carrying m4 carbines in every room of the facility, on top of numerous 'unfakable' security check points).

and finally, nuclear waste storage, some people simply cannot seem to fathom how little room nuclear waste takes up, especially in a country like australia, where such a huge percentage of the continent is suitable (and suitably distant from population centres) for the storage of depleted nuclear materials, and that the vessels used to transport and store said spent fuel have been constantly improved and tweaked since before nuclear power was even an idea.

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
