welding is easy...it's all about the heat and where it's directed... you want to grab the torch with both hands at first, keep the wire speed slow, too fast and things splatter quickly, and penetration isn't nowhere what it should be......................... oh hell.... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

lol, i can live with that, lol... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

we're good...she's almost 19. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

A Fuckin MEN! xeleventiyfucking billion... *grabs a gun and a brew to go outside and celebrate!!* wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

good point.... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

umm, that's me. wow. and my kid wonders why i preach/bitch loudly, that his ass needs to get outside, lol... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

You have very pretty eyes, NOW SHOW US YOUR TITS! :bigclap: was wondering when that was going to happen.......lmao.... we'll even let the no pr0n rule (do we even have one of those?) go for that.... wow, a real girl in here and she posted a pic??? sumbitch, i think hell just froze over a bit, lol... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

damn you adrian!!! leARRRGGHHHH wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

4 in a row?? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

IMO, unless you beat the piss out of your car the price performance of GTX is hard to beat. Personally even if I use synth in a car I change it so often that the benefits over normal oil in good condition is non-existent. Castrol takes more abuse than most and the only real advantage of synth is that it doesn't breakdown and lose lubrication. Well if you don't let normal oil breakdown, who the fuck cares whether it is synth or not. The caveat of course is if I have a really expensive engine. IE the M5 gets synth as the extra cost in this case gives me piece of mind, which of course is contrary to my statement above but the last thing I want to have happen is for me to drive that thing hot with crapped out oil in it. And considering everytime I drive her it is hard it seems worthwhile. and some cars, like my mini, require a syn, or warranty void. part of the reason is the car is step up to recommend oil changes every 12k or so, dependiong upon driving. and that syn has to meet mini standards, or of course be castrol syn, which is what came in the car. for my truck and motorcycle, they both get syn blend. the truck has an oil change countdown, the bike gets it every 5k, per factory rec, for now. by running a true syn, or syn blend, i know i'm not hurting the engine by going past 3k, which according to a mechanic friend was a joke anyway. by i'll sink a little extra into each oil change just to be safe. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I would argue that syn-blends are a waste. The petroleum portion can still break down which is the problem with non-synth oils. I'd save the money and just use Castrol GTX or step up and use the full synth. you think? i bought syn blends on the thought that the syn portion, and it's bonding properties, would help in case of the petroleum part breaking down. also, after talking to my mechanic friend and his notion, well researched notion on his part, that the "breakdown" of petroleum based oils is mostly myth in street driven, normal drivers, that was something i needn't worry about. i don't autocross or anything that would actually lead to a breakdown. even with the offroad play in my truck, it not often enough, nor rough enough (my vehicles don't live near redline evey time i play) to actually worry about it. seems like it's more marketing, or geared to those who abuse, then anything. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee It breaks down from day one, cheaper oils don't even require high heat for this to happen. I don't see any value in the extra dough. All or nothing. arrrrrghhhh i'm a victim of marketing!!! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

lol..nice! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

In my opinion..if you don't want people thinking your an A** who deserves to have his testicles removed..i wouldn't talk like you'd hit women or anything like that..because people can get the wrong idea. and it doesn't make you look good. Not trying to be mean, Just trying to help Equal rights. Women have fought so hard to be treated like men, but they always complain when they're not treated like a "lady." I could go on with this, but we all know it's pointless. amen. we have a gay policewoman in our department who even thinks the fact that the POWER test requirements shouldn't be different. she believes that she should have to complete it no different then a man's requirement. of course she failed the easier female's version, but i gotta give her kudo's for the thought. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i'm batting a 1000 so far, but damn wku vs il is about to change that..lol..damnit. next round is going to be the big upsets i think...maybe wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

It also doesn't hurt to make it big like that^ and even add a link to make it easier for people The link probably also helps those crazy bastards who view different posts per page then default very good idea/point!! +1 cookie for you!! :bigclap: wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Lucas with a bottle of GM LSD additive, it's what I put in the Camaro RP isn't worth the price Lucas already has friction modifier in it. But is it a friction modifier for a LSD though? Just curious... LSD is the only one that needs the friction modifier. For some reason I was thinking of Transmission fluids where there are different friction additives, (Type F vs Dextron III for example) kinda off base a bit, but tom is the only person i've ever seen go AGAINST royal purple. i've read/seen nothing but good things about it. it's what is in my bro-in-laws stang too.... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

The post we started at and stopped at is there. The time shows it. I did it right. The common courtesy is to mark the beginning with the ending page and the end with the beginning page correct.... and you went back and edited the first one. and don't say otherwise, i checked before i posted my comment....and you can always bypass the edited by thing by not checking the box. so no, you didn't do it right. but now you know, next time do it right or i will drop the hammer. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

T.O.P. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i just tossed out a name, although i did watch teh episode of horsepower tv where all they did was change all fluids over to royal purple synthetics and got a pretty big horsepower gain at the wheels. i'd wager any good/name brand syn is going to just fine. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

royal purple wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

duran, bassaholic.....go back and edit both the first and last posts in your whoring spree to let people know what's going on or i will drop the ban hammer. no bullshit. no more warnings to anyone. if need be, i'll get denim to turn floodcontrol back on..noone will be whoring. edit or hammer, you're pick. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee e

shit, lol, i know of a certain competitor that installs a small cap, 1/2 farad, inline with his headunit...and yep, all 4 guage. works for him. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

not only pinpoint the heat, but you can vary the heat as well on the run. it's also way cleaner, less slag/splatter going about. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

For me it all depends on what I am welding and how big the difference is. You can only get full penetration on the thinner material, now you can use a copper backing plate to soak heat out of the thinner material while welding, or put more heat on the thicker material by the way you hold the torch. As long as you get good penetration on the thinner material I'd call it good. What are you welding? Different subject, one of my biggest problems with MIG welding is that it seems to me a LOT of people never have it turned up hot enough, sure you can get what looks to be a decent bead to sit on the surface, but don't be afraid to turn the voltage and wire speed up. If your interested I have a Lincoln Electric Arc Welding book that I'd be willing to part with (I have two of them), it has about everything you could ever want to know with welding, be it ARC, MIG, TIG, or Gas. to go along with what he touched on, i usually will have the welder set for the thicker metal and i'l work the torch as to keep most of the heat on the thicker stuff. i'll work at two different speeds,basiclly, i'll drag the puddle over to the thinner stuff just long enough for good penetration and then run it right back over to the thicker stuff, staying longer there for penetration. ryan2 is right about MIG, most set it up for a nice pretty bead, but little penetration. i'll run up the voltage/wirespeed and make my bead with pace. thinner stuff, run faster, thick stuff, slow down. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
