Wooooo. :) So, One of the biggest things for me as a car guy moving back to ON, was the ability to throw 1949 plates on the Dodge. In AB, you could do this, but it was kind of complex, you had to keep the original plate in the glovebox, and the Year of plate technically was only good for "parades" o...

So I took a holiday day and spent the morning waiting for CAA to show up and by noon the truck was back in the garage. So I thought I...

I've been dealing with Allstate Carburetor from time to time over the past 4 years or so. They have always come through with my purchases in a quick friendly fashion. This time my order involved a bit of a twist. They had a lot of different size vacuum plugs on sale, so I bought 4 of each size along with some...

The Average Human walks 900 miles a year and drinks 22 gallons of beer. Which means the average human gets 41 MPG! Not bad. I wonder if you eat beans is that like a turbo?
Several years ago when I stilled worked at the St.Catharines engine plant we made the corvette motor. 2 members of upper management though it would be great to have a Camaro with a vette engine built and documented at the factory.
