    Largest displacement now / ever

    I like the little 8.4L Viper V10's. Here's the one in my sig pict and 30ft boat thats been marinized by Ilmor. It makes 700 Hp and 650 Lb Ft. This is what 15K of custom made CMI marine headers look like.

    Thanks. They are beauts for sure. It's a top of the line manifold system. I could make more HP with tube headers, but at 3X the cost and less than half the life, I'll compromise there.

    Largest displacement now / ever

    They were unbelievable dogs stock. A 355 in the back and a joe mondello top end kit really woke them up. Shop took 2 hours to do the rear and a buddy and I did the heads cam carb on a saturday afternoon. took it from like 180 Hp to 400. Sold it to a buddy for 5K in 90. Here it is today...

    Largest displacement now / ever

    9.6 (It's got Brodix heads painted black.) In auto form it made 900 HP. In marine form it makes 800Lb FT This mill is a giant kitten with heart of lion. It will make grown men giggle for days, and women pee their pants. Its still being rigged here so looks a mess, but it's all tidy now.

    How to tax EVs

    This is why I mention monitoring, or maybe a better word is reporting. If we accept monitoring/reporting then we can index with miles and weight. If we cant accept reporting then the best way becomes an average mileage # and a weight index.

    We have a semi local medium sized bakery that supplies the local stores called the Truckee sourdough company that makes great stuff for between 5 and 7 bones. https://truckeesourdough.com/#

    New Tesla Model YL unveiled in China

    The Fremont cars are ostensibly the ones to get with the Panasonic based packs. I do 3 couple trips a few times a year and real 6 seat vehicle would be great.

    My upcoming trip to Tokyo...tool store..

    I'm on the Makita platform fairly big time. I agree HPT is great as well. Im going to Royal Home Center for Makita specifically on this trip. I dont think there are many Japanese Makita products I dont already know about though.

    Do gas chainsaws make any sense for a homeowner?

    I have both. A Stihl and a Makita 2X18 saw. I keep at min a full gallon of non ethanol premix ready to go. The battery saw has 5-6 full sets of standby batts charged and ready to go at all time. I grab the battery saw 80% of the time. The wife that does a substantial amount of trimming and...

    They seem to be when I look them up. In that ultra high end tools like Koken and Nepros are "reasonable" to begin with.

    12V battery charger question

    I have more than a dozen optimate 6's and they are my goto throwdwon for everything from a generator battery to a motorhome bank of 4 group 27's. I had one problem in 15 years with the 10 amp optimate 7, and my dealer and the factory were great.

    My upcoming trip to Tokyo...tool store..

    Im drawn to this place like a sailor to a siren, a moth to a flame... A retail store packed to the gills with all the best stuff from Japan and a few other places. I need to exercise extreme self control in a candy store like this.... You may want to use a browser with auto translation...
