Where can you buy cassettes? My car has the factory cassette head unit, but I don't have any tapes. Well, except for my wife's old Bollywood tapes.

eBay- search music cassette tapes and lots of music cassette tapes. You probably have some used record stores around that would have cassettes as well.

Can you hear tape hiss over an aircooled engine?

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.

Yes, but only briefly . Sport muffler/premuffler and a radio delete fixed it right away though!

Crazy as it sounds, I found some blank 90 minute tapes at my local Staples...high bias, type II. I bought a lot of them. You might give your area store a ring...

For car tunes these days, I just plug in an ipod set to shuffle play.

I see you're in Columbia... call Papa Jazz in Five Points... I haven't been in a while, but they used to have some. 256-0095

Also check Scratch 'n' Spin in Triangle City, West Columbia near Zesto... they say on their website that they have cassettes... a really cool store. Scratch 'n' Spin Records :: About Us
