Every time.

Sad thing is, I DO have a 3/4" breaker bar. I originally wanted to see just how much this breaker bar flexed, since I swear it looked like it was deflecting ten degrees when I torqued a Duramax flexplate with it and a 8' long piece of exhaust pipe. Matco made the handle out of some extremely good steel. The square drive, too, to be honest!

I will respectfully disagree. I'd appreciate your input.

8/10. Mixing is done surprisingly well, but the Counting Stars backing track just makes the Bad Touch vocals sound rather sad, which isn't very fitting.

They're the same song. Listen to both individually, they have the same tempo and chord progression.

Since I didn't post a video, here's one.

And another for penance.

Okay, if you want a video that actually has video:

I saw the last half of this linked from the old TheOldOne forum. This is the first I've seen of the whole thing. Very interesting with the naturally aspirated R32 and R31 Skylines.

TOO was/is big on engine response over dyno numbers, interesting that the Mine's car seems to have been specifically built with response as the overarching goal for everything.

I'm just going to post the first video, but you should watch all of these:

The guy runs a machine shop with a stationary steam engine. In his newer videos he's restoring a steam engine. With his steam powered machine shop. It's fascinating and I couldn't stop until i watched every single one.

Ok a two-fer, this guy too:

Not a steam powered machine shop, but a much more grassroots approach. He's also not restoring an engine, he's building it from scratch. his design, his castings, his machine work. I got to the end of the playlist and i was angry there wasn't more to see.

Yes, i have a lot of time on my hand right now. The other one is bandaged up with stitches. Can't do jack.

This video had been blocked in the US, it's been un-blocked apparently!

Trans change on the side of the road in an A2 Quattro, back when rally service was a lot more guerrilla.

I don't know why we don't have an english version of this show over here. They have a bunch of smart people and viewers write in with problems or questions and these guys get to the bottom of it. https://www.youtube.com/embed/a5IXj8LFKA0

If you want to just hear the music of that motor, skip ahead to about 14 minutes in.

The Dinan stroked M3 V8 sounds glorious!!

Took Lumpy for a drive yesterday. Got pumped.

The neat thing about rotaries is that the difference between a stock engine and a full race spec engine is remarkably low-budget.

The underhood shot has a telltale that this isn't a real MRTE car but a clone based on a street car.

I also spent some time with my certain 5cyl AWD thing. Which also got me pumped.

This guy's automotive tendencies are very interesting to me. Oddly enough I was a fan of his son's rally videos a long while back.
