Re: Cheap GoPro

Harry's has a provision for external camera. The camera has wi-if bit the app that was recommended is not for iPhone. The manufacture suggested another one but I haven't messed with it yet.

I could say Velcro on the hat..lol
However I did sew in an extra strip of elastic.

Cheap GoPro

Thanks to Stefan I got the Odrvm made in China GoPro knockoff. Really good value at $50. This one didn't have the remote start switch but it does have motion detection. The feature works well. I should be able to be in the staging area and it doesn't record until the car starts moving. Here is a lit...

He has a nice shop. The machine shop reminded me of the airplane engine shop my father worked at. Spotlessly clean.
He also has an engine dyno that I wish I had spare money to play with again. That was a fun day.

Re: Motor saga

I took the time to CC relitive parts and ran the compression numbers. I don't know how much cutting was needed to true the heads the chamber is now only 60cc's I...

Re: Motor saga

Here's the update on my head repair. Only one guide broke during the bronze bushing upgrade. So with that one and the well worn guide only two had to be replaced. The valve seat pressure is now at 140lbs instead of the 75lbs that the flat tapped springs had that Comp cam had sent me. And a freash va...

Re: Motor saga

Thanks both of you for the input. It has been a tough decision. Ultimately it comes down to budget. I have put a lot of $$ in the motor as a whole these last few months with Accusump, roadrace pan, balancer, and a few other upgrades. On the fixed income play toy budget I having to look at the dollar...

Re: Motor saga

Well just to keep the story going. I have sort of fit my cylinder head issue into a figurative box. I got a reasonable good price when I bought them used on ebay. I don't remember exactly the price but I think it was around $500 for the pair. Not bad for aluminum 2.02 int. valve heads that had the s...

Re: Motor saga

As they say I feel your pain. The longer shocks will not matter unless they bottom out during normal travel at your previous ride height. They might have an o-ring on the shaft to indicate travel. If not a small thin zip tie can be used. If so the only solution is to raise the ride hight or stronger...
