I've broken a few of those Crane roller rockers !!

 

The best part of being the cook is not doing the dishes!!

 

NAFTA arms?

 

Thanks Andy

 

He's gone thru maybe 5 engines in the last 7 years , all catastrophic damage . its just a NHRA Super Street car that's run a best of 10.25 ET / 132MPH

 

Looking very good :} I Bet you could whip together a trailer hitch basket for the trash can or a small trailer : ]

I've spun mine up past 7200 rpm and had a push rod take out a rocker a few times

 

I actually used my little welder here for the first time today. I quickly realized I screwed the pooch on that purchase. It's too small and I can't weld the stuff I want to so it will most likely be going up for sale.

 

Which one do you have ? I forget ..

Cypher

 

Mmmmm so maybe he needs to rebuild and magnaflux every year or change his setup or both.
We saved two motors so far.

 

Lincoln 140 it runs off 110 and I use a 125 everyday. I figured it'd be able to handle .030 wire and weld 3/8. It appears I need a machine running on 220. I don't need anything fancy or big just more power.

 

He usually has the motor freshend up every year after the last NHRA Summit series divisional races

 

Ahhhhhh.....
Well then again, it's not a grocery getter..

 

That sucks you got 220 out in the shop ?

Cypher

 

yep the compressor runs off 220. I would just need a heavy duty exstension cord made to extend outside.

 

What are u running for amps or did they dumb up the unit with 1,2,3,4,5...

 

Search CL for a RV cord 50 Amp or 30 Amp get one cheap change the plugs as needed . ?

Cypher

 

They dumbed it up so I have no idea.. It was a good deal so I thought I'd be ok. It's a great little machine just not heavy enough.

 

FWIW. I got extended leads instead of 220 extension. No need to move the welder.
That can be a pain.

 

That wuld be down the road I'll have to get rid of this one and then save up for a different one. I love millers and if I had one like Marty's got I could do all kinds of stuff but at this point I don't need anything that big. Just the same size machine but more power.
