That's good to know, I was planning on doing it at 80k

Should I replace the valve cover gasket when I do it? I'm about 30k away from your 50k maintenance mark lol

 

I always do a valve cover gasket if I'm removing the cover... keeps me from having to remove it twice.

 

Yea... the spare engine could of used new valves... but the lapping them they came out ok... good enough for what I want

 

There's a reason big oil is buying into electric companies.

 

How DARE you only replace one valve and not every single one!



But in all seriousness, did you hand lap the rest of the valves? I really liked rebuilding small engine heads because at max I'd only have to lap 4 valvesnot looking forward to doing 16

 

I paid a shop do it, I knew I'd screw it up

They did all of them.

 

This is the future. (turn on captions)

Hopefully cause they know oil’s gonna be outlawed sooner than later they don’t wanna go with it.

 

Nice!

 

I just saw where it's no longer illegal to make Youtube videos of National Parks.

 

I see people panic buying hybrids this week. Really, I don't see gas price future projections causing concern.

Well the less fuel that other people use, the more I can run in my 13 MPG rig.

 

huh, I didn't know it was illegal to begin with lol.

I know it's illegal to fly drones over National Parks, which I fully support. Nothing like enjoying the outdoors only to hear the sound of a thousand angry wasps flying overhead

 

Think it was illegal to make profit from photography/video in the parks. Like photographing for Instagram with a sponsor or making YouTube revenue.

 

Going to go ahead and burn these on the frame sometime this week when the wind dies down. My welds aren't pretty but they'll hold fine for this application. Can't keep delaying the truck over the stupid core support + frame mounts. My double cab's radiator won't ship out until Friday so I'll be doing that job next week.

 

Got this for my collection. It’s a brand new copy of Space Invaders for the Atari 2600, still sealed in the original plastic for over 42 years.

Has the original price tag from 1978 for $3.70

 

Nerd.

 

Stop buying more cars that don’t work and finish your truck

 

You’re not my real dad!

 

How much did you spend?
