I love stuff like this! Just BECAUSE!

Makes a beautiful noise too.

That's one sharp old dude. He says, "pretty simple, really."....in concept, maybe it is. In execution, not so much.

Now that's a guy with lots of spare time ..... But cool none the less

LOL...Where do you find this stuff MJ I don't know but keep it coming. Cool idea I think it has more in it!

Exactly what I was thinking. Impressive to say the least.

He should design a diesel engine for FOMOCO....

Here's a couple more stories about it

I'm sure Adam will resign his position at Ford to be your personal trainer in order to get you b.p. down.

I dont work well with others, so Ive been told.

You've got it backwards..... Others don't work well with you.

Well you know what? In light of recent actions they actualy checked all our stuff saturday, mine expires next month but i got my yearly tech sticker anyways..... The doc said he wouldnt sign it today or until my bp got lower and i told his i didnt give a f-ck he signed the last one thats still valid and I would drive anyways....... I told him he outta check my bp now and just see how high it is for shots n grins.

I left outta there and ran up to walmart and bought myself 200 more rds of .40 s and w and 100 of .357 mag to calm my nerves..... :-)

That should do it!! I'm waiting on a speed loader that should be here in the next couple of days. I put a Slidefire on one of my ARs and my fingers can't keep up.

I don't need a job. plus I love TEXAS... now that that's out of the way. if FORD really gave two shits about their over priced products. they would have seminars around the country and listen to techs and give feed back on their findings. kinda like when the 6.0L hit the market. I make good money on gasoline or def contaminated fuel sys right before they trade them for a dodge

I make plenty of $$$$ fixin these turds.... Why would i want to move up to that shithole ..... I like it here were i can do all the things i love.

class acts...

Go catch big D a tornado....
