Fine, as long as you don't need to physical access to the equipment. You're probably OK if you are the end user, but for developers like me, it's a lot easier if you have the equipment close to hand.

I'd suggest you find a GlaStar project or kit. Glasair hasn't manufactured the kit in years, but there are a lot of them available. AFAIK, Glasair still supports them. The GlaStar is nominally a three-seater, but more practical as a two-seater. It'll take engines from 125 HP up to about 180HP...

I had my first lesson in more than a month yesterday. The weather was severe clear and light winds. I had a new (to me) instructor. I did a power off stall, a power on stall, 6 touch and goes and one landing to a full stop, with almost zero input from my instructor. Funny thing, on my first...

I found a pretty good website: Firebird Nation and made some inquiries about headers. Apparently, the headers for the standard block size will fit the short deck engine, but the exhaust manifolds are a PITA to remove. So, it looks like my decision not to do headers and dual exhaust was the right...

I've seen plans for two story hangar homes with the homes on the second floor. I'm no expert, but I think you'd need a fire barrier between the hangar and the living area. Also, you'd want to make sure any workshop chemical fumes don't make it into the living area. There's no practical way to...

Why would you want to heat hot water?

Sorry about his loss. I'm curious. How many cars did Ford sell because of Smoky and the Bandit (1 and 2)? vs. Pontiac Firebirds, especially Trans Ams? The first movie made Firebirds iconic. I have a 1981 Special Edition Trans Am, very similar to what Burt Reynolds drove in the 1981 Smoky and...

How could you even think about selling a Pontiac Catalina HO for any kind of a Ford? At best, they are Fix Or Repair Daily (FORD)! :)

Believe it or not. I have the receipts to prove it. Literally!

Don't know much about tailwinds, but in Wichita when I was practicing slow flight, we were headed into the wind and we were either hovering or slowly moving backwards.

Just got an email from my previous EAA chapter. It included this document: G1000U Promotion Those who've already gotten the STCs will get a voucher for 50 gallons of G100UL. (I caught my mistake before I posted. I originally said: G1000UL, Who wouldn't want 1000 octane gas?)

My story. When my wife passed last year, I hired an appraiser to determine what the step-up basis for my house was. I didn't even consider FSBO and was looking at Real Estate agents' flyers until I ran across one that had a glowing testimonial. I had to move completely out, but he brought in a...

I closed on a house on the Erie, CO airpark July 31, 2024. The remodel started then and is still ongoing. I have not lived there since I bought it. I do have a contractor taking care of the remodel. There's no stove, no one is showering, and the furnace has barely run. My first gas bill from...

I told you I was sick. Guess again. They poked a hole in him and buried him in shoebox. Kansas got the first pick. I used to have car like that. Superman, you're a mean drunk. When she sat around the house, she sat around the house. Take my wife.

But we need the eggs. Just two, but they have to be awfully small. It just does. One. She just holds the bulb, and the world revolves around her. Just one, but it really has to want to be changed. None, it's a hardware problem.

I did a lot of searching for headers for a 1981 Trans Am with a 4.9L/301 engine, and nothing fits. Still, how much absolute power increase can headers give a relatively low displacement engine. I know it's a compromise, but I'm thinking of keeping the exhaust manifold until if/when) I do an...

No. I think the on-board computer actively manages the fuel flowing through the carburetor for maximum efficiency. The Gen 3s had true EFI.

Thanks. I thought Holley made good carbs. This car has a cross between a carburetor and fuel injection. It's CCC, Computer Controlled Combustion, I think. There's no choke plate, it's all controlled by the computer.

Thank you. I did a little research and found a cross member for a second gen F-Body for a 200-R4 at Summit Racing. It also has a double hump for a dual exhaust setup. I love it when things come together.
