Glen's budget rebuild

[79coyotefrg]

    well he!! yea,  how much ??

[wa4x4]

1.3 is pretty low res. but if you dont make poster sized pictures you should be fiine with a 1.3, plus the battery life should be ok because of low res. I have a 2.0 mp Ill be selling soon, but Im sure this 1.3 will be a better deal 4 u.

[79coyotefrg]

thanks wa4x4,  i aint gotta clue,  the pics i have are from a disposable 35mm  developed at walmart and put on a disc

[wa4x4]

I am sure that you will be happy with digital though haha.

[FATB0Y]

If all your gonna do is use it for posting pics up here a 1.3 is perfect

[wa4x4]

Ok here is a little comparason. The first picture was taken by my old 2 megapixel camera and yes that paint has zero gloss. The second picture was taken in automatic mode on a pretty expensive 4 megapixel camera. Almost zero difference in this small of pictures. A 1.3 will work very well for what you would want it for.

sweet 1st gen 

yep thats all i need

What he said

[BUBBA]

man you tease us with the promise of pics and still we haven't gotten any
So,I have no choice but to say 

[Rocksurfer]

Glen you need a digital camera.  I've got an older HP 1.3MP camera I never use....want it?

Ryan

A 1.3 mega-pixel camera will be fine for every day pictures, I have (had) a 1.3 until this spring when a rock jumped up off the ground and smacked the lense in Moab. I actually like it a lot and wish I could find a used lense on ebay or something, it had a true zoom (not digital) and took some really beautiful shots in tele-photo zoomed all the way up. My new camera a 3 mega-pixel is no camparison when zoomed in since the zoom is 100% digital. In fact I don't even zoom it in since I can zoom and crop it on my pc.


.....hey Glen.......

[brainlessfool]

what they said.

now take it out and get it muddy.

[79coyotefrg]

here ya go guys,  some sound clip of my truck when i was leaving the KOA  last week when the Mammoth's were going home

[Ramrod]

yah I think that cam might be a little radical for my truck.  Do you have any exhaust on there?  I hate to say it but it sounds like .  Hows the performance?

[79coyotefrg]

performance     oh hell yea


exhaust,     um well headers and a 2 1/4 inch pipe
but im getting a glasspack welded on monday

[79coyotefrg]

yea it REALLY lopes,  but the power is unreal,  3000-5000 rpm in 5th is very quick,   i mean 65 mph behind a bigrig 75 by the time im infront  90  befor 200 feet from his bumper

[Ramrod]

damn thats fast.  I am trying to get ahold of a guy from pirate that was gonna sell me a supercharger for a 22r.  He didn't want much for it and it was all complete and put out 9 psi of boost and ran the stock carb.  If I get it I am going to rebuild this motor i have sitting around with the whole engnblr kit with big valves, kinda big cam, and ported polished head.  That should give you a run for your money and every other car on the hills up to the con

[79coyotefrg]

get everything except your cam from enginebldr,   get the cam from LC,  they have 4 cams better than stock but lower than mine that are better than enginebldrs,  ive seen there cam profiles and you might as well run a stock cam,    the 2xR's have plenty of torque because of the long stroke,   they do need help over 3000,  and mine has it

[reklund5]

Glen-

I've gotta FIND the camera...it's new in the box and hardly used.  It got upgraded almost immediately to one with more memory and resolution.  IIRC, it's got a small memory card so you can only store a few pictures, but it'd allow you to post pics...  email me privately and we'll work it all out.

hey thanks for the info about the buildup if ya get a chance take a pic of your 2nd alt and mounting bracket i've been kicking around the idea of that for some time but also thinking about doing a oba and taking the co2 tank off that i use now

hey thanks for the info about the buildup if ya get a chance take a pic of your 2nd alt and mounting bracket i've been kicking around the idea of that for some time but also thinking about doing a oba and taking the co2 tank off that i use now

i used the smog pump bracket from a celica,  and the alt from a 82 celica,  it has a internal regulator and only requires 2 wires,  one from main post to battery and one wire from a switch on the dash to the plug that basical turns the alt on,   this way i have a way to put my smog pump / a/c belt back on 

[79coyotefrg]

   man it sure is slow around here,   got some new shocks on the front today,  man  its so much better driving with shocks    i didnt have any shocks at all on till i got em    can we say SQUIRRELY   


gotta seal some holes in the floor and fab some exhaust , dang cops

[79coyotefrg]

got the floor fixed up,  and installed the front bucket seats from the 92 dodge minivan ,  tranny is toast and engines not that great,  might as well use the seats,   i got pics,  so when i get em developed 


even got a couple pics of that 2nd alternator

[79coyotefrg]

updates coming soon

[BUBBA]

 

[79coyotefrg]

well i installed the van seats but they sat too flat,  so i had some 2x2 tube  and made a spacer,  but it was too much,  then i found a old rocker assembly  and broke one of the towers in half  and used it,  perfection

hope to get my pics developed soon


and stop that yawning 

[79coyotefrg]

yea  i still dont have the pics developed     


on another note

today coming home from town,  my truck  all of a sudden started knocking , LOUD
then it kinda went away,  that confused me ,   i pulled the valve cover when i got home and saw nothing out of the ordinary ??  never got over 3500 rpm    maybe i'll pull the pan tomorrow just in case

[BUBBA]

 

[79coyotefrg]

  i know ,i know

[79coyotefrg]

   yesterday  i  i was driving along,  and all of a sudden i had a knock,  by the time i slowed to the side of the road it stopped,   today i started it and wacka wacka wacka,    pulled the pan and found metal shavins and the bottom edge of my #3 piston ear    so   after carefull flushing of the engine i removed some bearings for inspection, there  was more wear than i have ever seen on a engine with 2000 miles on it  

the cause you ask, cheap oil,  Walmart oil to be exact,   i dont know if they changed recently or what but i had some valvoline and stuck a finger in it and then the walmart oil,  GEEZE   the walmart oil might as well been diesel fuel    I'LL NEVER USE WALMART OIL AGAIN
