    firearms lubrication article

    Hers a link to grantcunningham.com discussing firearms lubrication. I'm a avid shooter and am always looking for the best lubes for my AR, M1A, 1911s, etc. Discuss. Just want to ad that for the AR I have been using Mobil 1 full synthetic 5w30 as my AR oil. I found that any carbon on the bcg...

    What's Your Favorite Handgun Caliber?

    .44 Mag for fun (but I have to remember if I fired 6 shots or only 5), 9mm practice, the good old 22LR for hi-volume plinking, and .40S&W - business.

    2007 Poll - Are you using Synthetic?

    Just started using the MLM darling of the oil world, Amsoil 0W20 (ASM). I have noticed a marked difference in cold engine operation with this VS my previous 5W20s and MPG has jumped up by .5.

    0w20 Amsoil for Ford V10 truck use?

    Why the recommendation for 5W20? Won't 0w20 do all 5w20 does and more?

    0w20 Amsoil for Ford V10 truck use?

    I have a 2004 Ford E350 with a V10 modular motor. GVWR is 13500 lbs. Truck is used as a delivery truck (looks like a U-Haul van) and am wondering if 0W20 Amsoil would be a good oil for it and if so what max OCI would be wise? Right now I am using Schaeffers 5W20 Series 7000 and Wix filters...

    Best and Worst Transmissions

    My votes for best: TH400, 727 & C6. TH350 also very good but need more maintenance that the "big three". Worst: too many to list. Best manuals: Chrysler Hemi 4-speed, Ford toploader. Muncie was weak even the M22 "Pebble Crusher" but not a smoother shifting 4-speed from the big three could be found.

    Crane Cams say's......

    As Dieselbob said, the cores are all made by one or two mfgrs (flat tappet), Crane, Comp, Crower, etc. just do the grinding. On my old 67 GTO the last engine build I used a hyd roller. What a difference in performance or a comparable flat tappet grind - and NO break in! Friend of mine is doing a...

    Zinc and flat camshaft lobes

    I went roller in my Pontiac..... how nice not to have to do a 20-30 minute break-in and worry about a lobe going flat. That and the power. "Once you go roller you never go back". Sure it's more $$$ initially but once you lose a cam the roller sure looks good. HDEOs is what I used when I ran a...

    what to use for a conical paper filter?

    I did the same thing, replaced my conical K&N with a dry filter (but not paper). Used an AEM Dryflow.

    Anyone tried the new "drytech" filters from AEM?

    The AEM Dryflow seems to have not degraded performance at all and I didn't expect it to since it is probably more than large enough to flow as much air as the little 4.6L needs. I was wanting a paper cone filter for my CAI setup, for various reasons, to replace the oiled filter and this may just...

    Which Schaeffers should i get

    I have been using the semi-syn series 7000 in all my vehicles for at least two years now. I like it and plan to continue using. No UOAs but the engines seem to run quiet, stay clean inside, get good gas mileage and the oil looks great when I dump it after running a year. Not scientific, just...
