    Meh, the 5.4 is a dog when loaded down, I’d take an EcoBoost any day of the week for the torque.

    What about the Fusion!?

    I gain more respect for Jay every time I watch a new episode of JLG. His line in this one about no car is unfixable is awesome to hear from a gearhead. He has such a love of all things with an engine, it’s fantastic. I also love that he doesn’t care about the purists, he fixes cars to his liking, but does it so it can…

    Nope, ‘70 means no smog required, and CA has no inspection. This car would have been cake to register

    Or just go full upgrade and swap in a G240/M42 combo out of a E30/E36

    Haha, you just out DeMuro’d Doug.

    Currently trying to sell my 840ci. I get these idiots all the time, it’s so bad, I just took my number off CL (also partly because of Aaron at Once Driven sending a voicemail message without actually calling, I get it, you need to make a buck but being a trickery asshole isn’t going to get me to use your service).

    Is that sarcasm?

    I imagine a manual conversion would be easy peasy.

    The max tow on F150 is 12,200.

    That’s before you count the (currently) $4750 rebate on the XLT F-150

    6.0L and 6.4L were navistar engines.

    None, you need to do your own math based on published GCWR from the manufacturer. The published GCWR is probably underrated on purpose to prevent damage to the vehicle and avoid any lawsuit issues.

    Check out my Sea-Doo two stroke that froze a piston mid stroke. Funny enough, in this case, the cylinders are replaceable, so I could have rebuilt it with new rods, pistons, cylinders, and head.

    I really love the pfffttt anti-lag noises. That was hilarious.

    Sort of, the M70, was derived from two M20s, same bore/stroke, but significantly changed overall. Also, surprisingly reliable engines I’m told, it’s the 4 Speed auto boxes in the early 850i that were grenade-prone.

    Yeah, but options kill payload (and towing) The max tow ratings are always reg cab, long bed with max tow pkg.

    They don’t sell, the prices are estimates. Every part no. is searchable for supercession or reverse compatibility. You’ll notice the parts for the Isetta have ended. More popular cars, like the E30, have plenty of parts available from BMW directly still. It’s a great resource!
