Royal- When I was a kid, we'd flush really bad systems with about a cup of Mr. Clean and lots of water. It really helped and never gave us any trouble. I'd shy away from ANY radiator flush that contains acid or any strong base. Unless of course you want to put that radiator off and patch a...

Ronnie- I understand your frustration. My dads owned a radiator shop and garage for 35+ years now, and I've seen some crazy ideas come thru that door on cooling overheating motors. If you think we Chevy enthusiasts have it bad, wouldn't you hate to be a Buick-man! Plain and simple, a well...

Yeah - it's called aluminum radiators! Remember, an aluminum radiator will increase your cooling efficiency between 20-40%! My dad laughs about people cursing out aluminum radiators because you generally have to replace the tank on the 'hot' side (if you own a 90's model Chevy pickup, you know...

Hey Guys- So far, I have noticed an increase in performance. I'll give you a quick list of pro's and and then con's: It has REALLY cleaned up my intake valves (my father believes that's due to the small amount of water vapor that also gets piped in with the hydrogen and oxygen.) The truck (a...

Models- I found out that a fellow discovered a way to produce hydrogen from water using a process called fractioning. His name was Stanley Meyer. He claimed that the Arabs offered him a $$billion$$ to make the system "go away." Take a look: http://www.waterfuelcell.org/ His process is far...

Rock- I understand your skepticism, but you act as though this fellow is trying to get people to purchase a product from him. He's giving out free information, that's all. I don't understand why your so terribly negative about the whole thing. Besides, back yard mechanics and garage inventors...

Amen to that! Nice to have seen you at Pate! Give me a reminder about the car show in Hamilton. Adios

Try one of these..... Roy- This is in my area. I own a Pest Control Company. These dudes LOVE bird seed and peanutbutter. Get your self some of these professional snap traps (not the black ones that look like a T-rexes mouth!) with the large yellow trigger. REAL easy to set. Smear a...

Tics- I don't think I'd pressurize it, but he does suggest running a 1/4 to 3/8" tube to the bottom to use the 'vibration' and 'push' from the exhaust to get more gas out faster. Look at this link too: http://waterpoweredcar.com/hydrobooster2.html This is the one I built except for...

Rock- Remember, I didn't come up with this. I just thought you guys might be interested. In response to your points: 1) You're not replacing the fuel, you're supplementing it. So you won't need to make 500 cfm of hydrogen. 2) Yes, I remember about the exploding blimp. Again, you're not using...

A friend showed this to me and I was wondering if anybody else had seen anything like this. http://waterpoweredcar.com/hydrobooster.html The guy claims that his homemade unit will get your late model gas guzzlers to pass smog tests WITHOUT your cat. converter! I made one (cost me about...

I'd start with checking out all the basics: Battery connection, ignition switch, etc. I had to put a F**D solenoid between my GM starter-mounted solenoid (on the small wire!) and the battery on my 1961 when I had headers on my 350. Headers can REALLY heat soak the solenoid and starter and cause...

Thanks Tommy.

Hey Guys- Is the Trim around the windsheild of my '61 Bel Air stainless or chromed steel? If it's stainless, I can work on these pieces myself, if not, I'll need to get them replated. Thanks for the info. :)

Say Guys- What would be the best type of insulation to use under my carpet, along the firewall, under the headliner, etc.? I see a few different types on the market: Plastice bubble with aluminum foil on both sides Some type of polester with fiberglass with foil on both sides The same...
