Hi guys and gals.

Howdy Jim and the rest.

It was nice to drive to work and NOT hear the exhaust leak. If the bolts do not stay tight now I am going to install studs in the head and then I can use locking header nuts. From what I read i am supposed to cuts a notch in the length of the stud just to give it more bite into the head and that locks it in place.

I used high temp locktite this time. Time will tell if that works.

what i am seeing is that the 300 blackout round tops out at ~2300 ft/s. that is terrible, IMO.

they claim more energy at 300 meters than the 7.62x39, but i cannot see how that is possible, being that the muzzle velocity of a 7.62x39 is 2400 ft/s and higher, with a bullet that is nearly identical in diameter and similar in weight (125gr vs. 123gr).

anyway....

good morning, peeps.

Howdy D.

Didja ever get that picture framed?

nynor 11-05-2012 09:21 AM

not yet, glen. it sits on my pool table, reminding me that i need to get funds to have it framed. we've had a run of vehicle expenses, lately.

That sucks.

I hear pole dancers make a lot of money :D :eek:

Just joking.

One good thing about nursing, there are always jobs available. Good luck!

Bummer Tweez.
Good luck with your job search.

tweezers74 11-05-2012 10:00 AM

Guess I can do that 8 mile run I didn't think I would have time for. Will allow me time to brainstorm...

Jim Richards 11-05-2012 10:09 AM

Hey tweeze, sorry to hear about your job. :(

Should I ask my son to look around at the two hospitals he works at (Newport Beach & Irvine) to see if there's an opportunity for you? He's on vacation this week but I can ask him when he gets back, assuming that's of interest to you.

Porsche-poor 11-05-2012 12:02 PM

BUMMER! Hang in there you will find something.

Holy 5hit, 1000hp, you hve got to be joking, but I suppose the car probably weighs a few ton, so it all equals out, .... maybe.

I love that Jag, very cool.

HHI944 11-05-2012 01:23 PM

I believe the caddy is near 3 tons.

Yeah. SS marked cars are pretty rare. Even more so in that condition.

That sucks Tweeze. I get the feeling in my water, you're not going to be unemployed for long and luck will have nothing to do with it. Wishing you get what you want. ;)

Morning All

Nice pics Joe. The Landy looks good.

Love the SS - the steering wheel is on the correct side ;)
