So is that an oil pump or the alternator that is belt driven from behind the flexplate?

So is it a real new engine or just two potato farters stuck together?

Looks like the starter sits "above" the belt driven lump - must be a dry sump oil pump.

no summer is complete without a redneck hot tub, and half the fun is sloshing it around the neighborhood to drain it when you're done with it.

edit: so just did the math on this, the truck bed is ~72 cubic feet and a cubic foot of water weights 62 lbs.

That means 72x62 = 4464 lbs of water. What surprises me is that once the suspension set down to the overload springs it didnt squat anymore, still had ~2 inches to the bump stops.

Drive up onto a truck scale - fill the bed until water starts spilling over – have daughter note total weight – have daughter climb into the bed and float – have daughter notice that weight is unchanged – enjoy blown away look in daughter’s eyes.

That Archimedes fella really knew what he was talking about.

Jump up and down on bumper = redneck wave pool.

Water is 8lbs. per gallon, gasoline is 6lbs. per gallon; fill the box with gas!!.

Yes,that's Courtney. She posted this pic on some of her social media a few days ago.

Drove a stock class car in MA at the rallycross today. I didn't have the right class magnets so I made my own class.
