Reminds me of that infamous line in Monty Python's "search for teh Holy Grail"... "run away, run away...run away"!!!

ARTHUR: Three. Three. And we'd better not risk another frontal assault, that rabbit's dynamite.

ROBIN: Would it help to confuse it if we run away more?

ARTHUR: Oh, shut up and go and change your armor.

GALAHAD: Let us taunt it! It may become so cross that it will make a mistake.

ARTHUR: Like what?

GALAHAD: Well,....

LAUNCELOT: Have we got bows?

ARTHUR: No

LAUNCELOT: We have the Holy Hand Grenade.

ARTHUR: Yes, of course! The Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch! 'Tis one of the sacred relics Brother Maynard carries with him! Brother Maynard! Bring up the Holy Hand Grenade! [singing] How does it, uh... how does it work

LAUNCELOT: I know not my liege.

ARTHUR: Consult the book of armaments.

MAYNARD: Armaments, Chapter Two, Verses Nine to Twenty-One.

BROTHER: "And Saint Atila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, 'Oh, Lord, bless this thy hand grenade that with it thou mayest blow thy enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy.' And the Lord did grin, and people did feast upon the lambs, and sloths, and carp, and anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats, and large --"

MAYNARD: Skip a bit, Brother.

BROTHER: "And the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shalt be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thou foe, who being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.'"

MAYNARD: Amen.

It's a novel approach I'm thinking through for my MotorMeister issues. I'm currently developing on a legal/ business Hand Grenade...

I'd go with the Drivers' Ed cams. The Autocross cams are too squirrely.

And there is no way that a swallow can carry even half a coconut this far north. Just impossible.

jamesiii · jamesiii's Garage

Two swallows could carry it that far North...if they attached a string to the cam!

Superman · 02-13-2002, 09:44 AM

Can a swallow fly high enough to get into the jet stream? I mean, if balloons packed with explosives can make it here from Japan, then perhaps a swallow.......

"Badges? We don't need no stinking badges."

Oh, sorry. Wrong thread.

Superman · 02-14-2002, 09:12 PM

Noah, if you use the Dirt Road Rallye cams, you'll be disappointed if you don't also use the high-torque pistons. And of course the direct-resistance torsion bars. It's a common mistake.

Are you talking about a US-spec Road Rally cam, or a Euro-spec Road Rallye cam? I believe the US versions had about 15 less hp, although the rev limiter was inverted such that if you ran the engine *below* 6200 rpm it would kick in.

Oh wait a minute...maybe that was the Australian version....a southern hemisphere thing. Plus the Bernoulli vortexes rotated counterclockwise.

Just don't stand behind the car when you start it -- "it might faahhrt in your direction"

It sure is funny, you all know that I have been to the track a few times,but I have to yet see a California race proven motor at the track. Maybe he has boat motors that are California race proven. If you have noticed Excellence has dropped their ads, because of the BAD feedback from thier suscribers. I just wish Betty Joe Turner(pORSCHE pANORAMA) would get the hint. I wonder how he can sell you a 2.8 race motor package for $2995.00 when Andial charges $3600.00 for the factory barrel and piston set. I dream of being the smart business man that he is. They must know more than me, maybe I should get a job there and really learn how to build California Race Proven motors. OTTO
