No sir. My 87 f250 has an Edelbrock 650. But it's nowhere near the 350 hp of my 164 cubic inch v6 and certainly doesn't get 22 mpg. Lol

Rip 7.3. 😭 My all time favorite motor. Loved mine.

No. A lot of guys are blending for e30 and tuning for it with great luck. That's about the limit on stock fuel pump though.

Because MOAR POWWAAA! Lots of good reasons. Direct injection engines are notorious for excessive carbon buildup on the valves. Meth/water injections steam cleans them. I plan to keep this truck a looooooong time. Methanol injection gives an octane boost. Methanol injection substantially...

Forgot to mention in the OP, but I'd also be interested in products to maintain a black appearance on exterior trim.

Hi guys. I have a few questions. 1) I am gearing up for my first ever polish. I have 5.5" lake country pads, and plan to use McKee's AIO. My plan for prep is Ironx foam cannon soap and a nano skin mitt. There are some stubborn bug guts, and something like tar or sap in a few places. I have...

Also, fwiw, my truck is black.

Thanks to all. I know the hard work will be prepared prior to coating, but it's work involved nonetheless! Haha I'm going to do my first full correction soon. Decon, clay, polish and all that. I don't plan to use a ceramic after this polish, but the next one probably next spring. I'm sure...

Are these something the average Joe can do? I'm considering learning more about them and doing it some time this year or the next. I'm aware it's an awful lot of work. But, as opposed to paying thousands, I'm cool with putting the sweat equity into protecting my $45k truck. Thanks! Sent from...

I found the info you're looking for on YouTube. It basically just involves removing the cheap grease and packing it with more and better grease.

Tell me more on the new show the old guys are putting together! I have always LOVED Top Gear! But now, meh. Sent from my SM-T230NU using Tapatalk

Is this how they came up with diminishing abrasives?

Peanut butter? 😃😂

I've used toothpaste. It works. Ish. But it doesn't last unless you clear them or diligently coat them afterward, and even the initial results are nothing like what was achieved here. On a nice car I'd just pony up for wet sanding, polishing, and clearing. It still isn't all that expensive.

I work at a lumber yard, where gravel, sand, and wood dust abound. I want to keep that in mind when I select my coating. I'd love to have something nice and slick enough so that this stuff washes off easily. Maybe allowing me a quick foaming every few days. Any recommendations?

Stuff is trickling in. McKee's AIO, LC backing pad and some orange/white foam pads just arrived at my house! And a nanoskin sponge.

I appreciate it. I was referring to the pads used in his thread. I'm buying Lake Country flat foam pads. I'm also using McKee's 360. Like the OP. I've looked at the Lake Country charts. I'm just curious about real world use and results on paint in similar condition.

When you used an orange pad, did you find it necessary to follow that with a white? Or did the orange finish out nice enough?
