heres another one you missed
tell us again about your gas milage prcentages and calculatons /obsevances and oil theroies oh great one lol
quack like a duck!
Id be happy to.
1. 2mpg out of 16mpg gain on my GN. Went from 16mpg to 18mpg, and it has stayed that way for the past 12,000 miles. Gained 3mpg on my cobra. Seen it in many cars that run RP. I dont sell for, or work for RP...I just post my results.
2. Mobil 1 drains out looking black and nasty after 4000 miles, where RP drains out at 10,000 not looking that bad. No other synthetic Ive used, drained out looking so bad and smelling like a burning chunk of coal.
3.The starburst symbol designates an oil that has had its ZDDP content severely reduced. Moly can actually replace ZDDP is many situations.
4.The oil drop has virgin oil analysis sheets with pure laboratory data, showing no opinions, only chemical spectrum analysis on new and used oils from different manufacturers.
As for me not knowing ****.
My dad was a hot rodder/mechanic. My grandfather a mechanic for 65 years. All my uncles were hot rodders/mechanics.
I built my first working model v8 engine when I was 5 in 1976.
63 Chevy Nova with 350 SBC- Age 12. (built with my dad)
70 Vega with 301 SBC- Age 15. (built myself)
64 Nova with the Vega drivetrain- Age 17 (built myself)
70 Cougar- 351C 4V, tunnel ram, dual 660's, roller cam, forged bottom end, 9" rear with 4.56's...11.8 car.- Age 18. (already built but made alot of changes)
67 Cougar- 302 with light mods...daily driver. Age 20 (built myself)
Ported my first set of SBC heads at age 15. Won some award at school at 15 for top auto shop student....never claimed the award.
In 91, started at JMS Racing engines where I was an engine machinist and builder till 98. Hundreds of race engines for every circuit imaginable sans VW and rotary. Nascar, Imsa, Ihra, nhra...goes on and on. Many thousands of stock engine builds for any car imaginable.
Machined and rebuilt about 12,000
sets of heads of all types. Ported/flowed around 50 sets of heads. Machined and built around 4000 engines. Also did engine R&R on about 100 cars during this time.
In 98, started as a CNC Programmer/machinist for Tandis research, and became shop manager in 3 months and over time, an automation integrator...I machine parts for, do some design and build custom automation equipment, primarily smart card manufacturing machines which are the fastest in the world. Came up with the main feature of the ultrasonic embedding horn design that made it functional (embeds a magnet wire antenna into a PCV substrate), and became the global standard...got ****ed over with the patent...old boss took credit.
Got a 99 Cobra at 28. Used that car as a test bed for intake manifold development since no one out there made anything for it. After a year of work, I came up with intake designs that beat the best in the business by a long shot. Had a feature lined up in 5.0 but changes at work forced me to quit. Passed on my knowledge and made other people famous.
Bought a blower kit but had to machine up all my own bracketry and most of the system. Made 500rwhp with no alky on 91, with 11psi, stock motor only with my intake manifold.
Bought the GN 3 years ago and thats a story in itself. Theres a great deal more to what Ive done with cars through my life. But to assume my observations mean nothing, is ridiculous. Oil looks burnt. Smells burnt. Rub it through your fingers and it leaves carbon tracks on your fingertips...well it might be burnt...
