Maxx, you think he cares how things look in there?

It took "the gallery" to get him to smooth out his initially poor cutting of his clutch fork. Sheesh, the man knows no shame.

The "Car Talk" brothers on NPR said that they were basically a waste of money.

That's on my list to remedy... and I'm getting there, slowly.

Thanks, got all the filters and some oil lined up for tomorrow morining, My neighbors will love me about 6:00am. One is a lawyer and gets up about 10:00am except tomorrow, the other works with me so he will be gone. The housewifes need up anyway. My plan is to start engine, readings at 1K rpm, 2 k rpm, 3 krpm and shut off quick. I do not want the oil warming up between test if it does I will have to continue sat morning. I am confident I can get two test tomorrow. I ran engine this afternoon to ensure lubricant is clinging to all surfaces. I would love to get reading as the oil pump rv bypasses but no way do I want to rev the engine when cold. Its built like a sheet brickhouse anyway.

1) Existing FL-1hp
2) FL-1A
3) Royal Purple - probably leave this one installed.

Hoses to gauges ty-wrapped away from pulleys. Test oil Mobil 1 10W40.

Go spend 69 dollars for a oil heater, run a high quality low micron filter and your engine will love you.

Here are a few things to keep in mind about racing filters.

This is what WIX has to say about Racing Filters
Warning: Wix racing filters are designed for racing purposes only, and if used on street-driven vehicles, pre-mature engine wear is possible."

They are made for high flow Rates around 28GPM 40 to 60 Microns.

Street pumps might deliver a 1/3 of that flow rate. YOU WILL NOT see any noticeable difference in pressure drop across the filter compared to a High quality low micron filter.

Uhhh, I'm willing to wager that RodKnock does not drive his Cobra to church.
