  • Washington quarter error?

    I have noticed on the great basin quarters that George washington isn't looking himself. He looks fatter and balder. I have 2 of these quarters from the denver mint, they look more like play money than legal tender. Is this a design change or an error I should hold onto?

  • 1995 TBI 305 Chevy C1500 pickup trouble?

    I have a 1995 Chevy (actually GMC, but they are the same). It has a TBI 5.0 and a 4L60E with 150,000 miles. It has no power what so ever, putting the truck in gear stalls it sometimes, and it takes forever for the throttle to respond, and it boggs terribly, and runs rough under load. Its the same in open loop and closed loop (Hot or cold), I have pulled SES codes, and havent gotten any codes.

    I have replaced the EGR, swapped the coil for a known good one, removed the catylitic converter for testing purposes, checked plugs and wires, and even unplugged sensors I though were bad (one at a time then plugged them back in and reset the computer).

    if you give it a shot of carb cleaner while running rough it smoothens out, and If I rip the throttle wide open and give it a spray at the same time it doesnt bog/stumble at all. So it seems to me that its running LEAN.

    So Im assuming the fuel pump is bad, or the injectors are clogged, can I get a second opinion?

  • Briggs and stratton 190CC motor?

    i have a pair of 190CC/12CID flat head motors

    what is the difference between the power ratings. ive seen 6.0, 7.0, and 6.75 ftlb torque ratings. what is the difference? different cam? different head? different carb/intake?

    i got a 2 year old 7.0 on a John Deere jS36 mower that was blown due to owner abuse. ran with no oil, and a piston ring stuck, and broke the piston. I put a 10 year old 6.0 torque motor on the chassis, with the deere carb/shroud/muffler/governor/magneto.

    i was just wondering because I want to rebuild another 190CC block to 7.0 standards to put on this mower later.

  • mans direct effect on weather.?

    alright i dont want to hear global warming is killing the world yadda yada. this is mans effect on weather over a small corner of the world, about 10 square miles to be exact.

    so my town is the home of the largest coal-fired power plant in East TX, and we even supply a large portion of the power that Dallas TX uses. The power plant is on a lake south west of town, and uses the lake as its cooling water. This plant puts off a lot of heat, and burns through trainloads of coal every day.

    I have noticed that rainstorms from the West and South miss our town, storms that go hundreds of miles in each dirrection open up in the middle around our town then close up on the other side of town. The storm seems to open up about 1/2 mile before it hits the power plant on the weather map. I have also noticed that when the plant is going through "shut-down" for maintenance, more storms make it through.

    do you think the increased temperature and CO2 from the plant makes a little bubble around our town that limits rains ability to fall? Keep in mind that increased temps reduce humidity.

    This is strange, and i have seen it happen several times through the years. it happened again tonight. An orange blob turned green over our town, then dried up like usual.

    the plant is set to close in a few years, so then we will have data from both plant, and no plant conditions to compare for a final answer to this interesting situation.

    also, have any of you noticed this anywhere else in the United States around a power plant or other large source of heat?

  • chevy big block tech?

    can someone teach me about cylinder head compatibility? i have a Gen 6 (gen VI) big block, and i need heads for it, and an intake too. i have never built a big block before, but i have built smallblocks before.

    the blocks casting number is 10237300, which makes it a 502-572 block.

    which heads can i use? mark 4, gen 5, etc? which heads wont work, and out of the heads i can use, which will work the best?

  • gen 6 Big Block chevy motor build questions?

    so i scored a BBC today, gen 6 and its about a 560 CID (slightly destroked 572). the motor is going in a 1977 LWB chevy truck. casting # on the block it 10237300. i need heads, intake, fuel pump, oil pump, oil pan, roller cam, etc.

    the motor has flat top pistons, and a SCAT crank with ARP bolts, and is 4 bolt. it even has a roller cam with the spider instaled

    i want to build this motor to pull 600 or more horsepower, and id like some suggestions on parts. planning on a holley 780 or 800 carb, may go bigger in the future.

    so can i get a PN on the roller cam i should use (without going crazy machining heads), casting number for some heads, oil pan and pump, and a good intake (id like to lean towards edelbrock)

    this truck is a Daily Driver btw, and id like to keep the entire build under $2250

    ive been wrenching on smallblocks for years, and have built some 300+ horse 355's, but i dont have much experience with big blocks. i can put parts together on a BBC, but i dont know the best parts to bolt together.

  • 700R4 to 4L60E swap in a 92?

    i would like to swap my 700R for a 4L60E. Both trucks have the GU6 3.42 rear end, so speedo calibration shouldnt be an issue

    the truck its going in is a 1992 chevy with TBI 350. the donor truck is a 1994 TBI chevy truck.

    i have the 1994 ECM (16197427) and complete wiring harness to go with the 4L60E.

    the 92 currently has a 16146299 ECM running the motor, but that shouldnt matter when i change the wiring harness.

    i already have the dash out of the 94, and im going to put the 94 dash in the 92 because the 92 dash is cracked. im going to have the 92 dash out for a couple of days , so thats when ill swap the harness.

    can you think of anything else that i will need to modify to make the harness/PCM/trans work in the 92?

  • 1995 pontiac trouble codes?

    i would like to know if the trouble codes on a 1995 pontiac bonneville, 3.8L vin K can be read with a scanner i can cheaply purchase.

    this car is OBD 1 compliant with a 16 pin connector. no, it wont give me blinky lights like OBD1, ive already checked into that. it also wont read with standard OBD2 scanners. there is a special scanner that can check codes, but i cant locate one. the dealership can pull codes but that would get expensive after a few trips.

  • 700R4 tailhousing question?

  • TH350 failure of a strange sort?

    so grandpa drove it for years without the modulator hooked up, and i finally reattatched it 4 months ago, shifted great till after that, till it quit shifting.

    on his way home from work, it went to make the 2-3 shift, but never made it

    bellhousing has been cracked all the way around for a couple of months, so its non rebuild-able.

    it has plenty of fluid, although it now looks like purple metalic paint(was red last week)

    it pumps, but whines the whole time (in all PRND21) and doesnt have forewards or reverse. what do you think failed?

    were lookin for another 9inch tail 350 or a 700r4 right now, we were just wonderin what failed

  • Lowest note on trombone?

    I have played peddle Eflat before on a bach LT42B(traditional wrap), but today while attending a Jr Sr honor band at TX A&M Commerce one of the trombone dirrectors played in this order down, peddle Bflat (first), peddle F (trigger 1), peddle D (trigger 5), and then played an even lower note in first position with trigger engaged. So it was a partial below the peddle F, which makes it a double Peddle note.

    Have you ever heard of one of these? Any clue what note it was? He pulled it off on a bach 42BO with 5G mouthpeice.
