Fastest et of the day was a 10.33@131 mph and I rolled out to avoid breaking out...Made 3 rounds before I had to leave to go to work since I couldn't find anyone to cover for me until I g...

way off topic...but do u know?(h/d related)

In a nut shell.... My shovel keeps blowing the rear head gasket,in different spots.Around the oil return hole or the cylinder head bolt on the intake side. The head and cylinder are flat,I put them on a surface plate and gauged them.The factory gasket went.A teflon gasket blew and a copper gasket le...

Sorry to hear APE treated you that way.I always had good buisnesss with them.Not anymore though. You might try Velocity racing here in Jersey.As fast as these boys run,I am sure they can help you out,All their drag bikes are undercut and they probably do it themselves. The price will drop shortly......

Take the core (schrader)valve out,there is a tool for this,sometimes the valve cap will have it on it. I use a locking air chuck so I can stand back a little,and fill the tire until the beads pop.I never had a problem with low profile tires seating.If you do,use a 50/50 mix of dawn and water and lub...

There are a couple of ways to go about this..... You can drill the head off then grab the shank with vise grips and turn it out. Or you can use a left handed drill bit.these are a good idea but do not always work like they should. Craftsman has some screw extrator sets but I never used them myself.T...
