Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Afternoon sir. Does that mean that motor and turbos and everything will be sold in order to start afresh? Few vultures may already be circling around that block.

Yes, most likely.

I was thinking of keeping it but I'm thinking that the next build will most likely be stroker

Yes, most likely.

I wonder who will pick up that motor. 2.8 stroker or 26/30 Ants? Choices choices choices.

I like 2.8 sound of things but everything is trending to 3ltr+ now which I personally makes things more complicated than what it really should be.

But I will once again do my homework first and then take it from there.

The big block boys have been saying it for years "there's no replacement for displacement". The cost of building a 26/30 would be punitive compared to a RB28 I would have thought? Or you could just go a Rb34 ;)

BTW I purchased a bottle of Laprhoaigh last week (the select cask)

That shit is so peaty that you want to punch your grandma in the face!

F me!

That stuff is nice! Although you aren't a peat fan from memory. It's ok, I don't think he takes it personally. :P

Yes, can't beat cubes hence Nick lol

Yes, I actually wouldnt mind getting another bottle which is called the quarter cask - 48% abv and has some really good reviews but yeah Peat and I don't get along as well as Sherry does.

Quarter cask is one of my brothers favourite drops. I too quite enjoy it. For your palate, I do recommend the Dalmore range or the Aberlour. Good stuff! Had Dalmore 12 earlier tonight and enjoyed it.

the QTR cask has scored 96 points. But yeah for me I like sweeter whiskys. Doesn't mean I don't like peated malts though

The Dalmore 12 is insanely sweet.

The Macs and Dronachs are one of my favs

But I like all kinds of whiskies

Yes, it's about tastes and also the mood you're in. Having said that I'm always keen to explore and expand my knowledge by trying other whiskies.

The Dalmore cigar malt is nice and the 18 I must try one one day.

Arberlour is on my to do list.

Right now though on the hunt for some Japanese malts :)

Japanese hey? Very pure crisp flavours. Which in particular?

any mate.

I've recently purchased Nikka from the barrel and that is just unreal

The best nose of a blend I've ever had and tastes magnificent.

Last night I had (a whee bit too much) Laphroaigh Select cask but that's because I really enjoyed that smokey aftertaste

Think I'm going to buy that QTR cask now, as I think I'm hooked on it now lol

The more refinement that goes into these peaty and smokey whiskies the less it tastes like an ashtray. The Ardbeg Perpetuum for example, nice heavy notes of tar and soot on the nose yet dark chocolate and honey on the palate. When you take a sip, has a nice warmth to it followed by smoke.

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
