How many miles to warm a slice of pizza?
How many miles does it take to warm a foil wrapped slice of pizza placed on top of an engine at highway speed? :)
|
forever on a 911 engine, as they don't get very hot up there. it may get sucked through the fan though, and it should warm up quickly sitting on the heads. mmmmm.
|
Hmmmm. . . maybe those infernal "thermal reactors" are good for something after all. . .
|
Use to take about 3 miles in my 78 Datsun King cab PU:p
|
I've done some burritos in my time. Last week I put a tube of caulking on my Chevy manifold wondering if it could possibly get into my linkage. Whatever, I did it. Six miles and it was lukewarm, if that. It was still too stiff to use w/o a lot of squeeze.

There's a Seinfeld episode that may be of help on this matter...

Use bailing wire to tie it to your exhaust +1 on a about 3 miles. About 1-2 passes on a JD tractor.

Porsches make great BBQ grills, according to those pictures:

About 100 miles to poach a fish with wine on an american V8 with exposed headers. I know someone who actually did this. He had to use Easy off to clean the headers.

We tried this on a family road trip a few years ago. We tightly wrapped leftover pizza and chicken in individual foil and placed on the exhaust manifold of our Dodge Caravan. After 100 mi. or so. we stopped for lunch and had a hot meal.
I'm looking for road trip recipes for the 911. Unfortunately, the muffler isn't too accessible as a heat source. However, early heat exchangers produce about 400ºF surface temps. I think a sheet of aluminum, bent to fit and attached to the heat exchanger, right before the collector flange, should be an ideal platform for nice even heat. The book, Manifold Destiny, is famous for vehicular cooking. It's out of print, thus the Amazon price of $90 and $60 used. This website has some basic car cooking instructions and photos: http://www.instructables.com/id/Cooking...-with-your-car/ Sherwood |

I believe it was Car & Driver (or was it Automobile?) that did a story on cooking food on engines several years ago. Actually, it was probably more than several years ago.
For the story they worked with Jimmy Schmidt (I think that is his name) from the famous Rattlesnake Club restaurant in Detroit. He cooked all kinds of stuff if I recall correctly. Perhaps someone here has the issue. |

Hey, you're right around the corner. Enjoy the food! :cool: |
Yeah Rick were all over this darn state when we visit. Darn relatives. Stuff Yer Face today in New Brunswick!
The pic of the 914 cooking above is pretty cool. That car is located in Houston. If I remember the article he had a smoker or something in the front trunk. |
