The T clamp exert clamping force in 360 degrees The other ones exert clamping force ... uhmm... errr... less, like a worm gear clamp... but they hide the joint in the pipe in shiny chrome. If this is for your drag racer: weld it on.

Here's someone that's never been to a bonspiel

I though he sold them all. There was a class action suit against him for the 16 or 17 frames he "found" (that tanked the market for "real" Shelbys) (Ya gotta LOVE Shelby) Lambo made that tribute car, the Balboni... is that what we're after? That was about as much STUPID as you can pack into one...

Sadly, not enough REAL motorheads to make it profitable. The Mustang and the Camaro came close... they sold a ton of them detuned to secretaries, enough they could afford to make ZL1s and GT350/500s. We need something like a Karmaan Ghia, offered with a turbo six and real suspension. The Miata...

Is Tim still around?

Here's a tip: If you're in charge when someone dies, ask the funeral home for 10 copies of the death cert. You're going to need a bunch of them and after the fact the funeral home will charge you a fortune for certified copies later. In my family my sister somehow got the job of "handling it"...

The problem with joint accounts is if one of those named on the account dies, the account goes into probate till the executor issues instructions. A buddy had joint accounts with his mom... she died, in Kelowna. He flew out, didn't buy a return ticket. He went to the bank in Kelowna to finalize...

Why wouldn't they?

Sorry for your loss... 53??? That's gotta throw ya. If you NEED anything: ASK. If you want to talk to someone, I'll try. DON'T BE AFRAID TO ASK FOR HELP OR GUIDANCE. People around you WANT to help, but really don't know how to help. They need your help to help you. A solution is an encrypted...

Pshaw... an LS makes everything better... and a turbo makes all LS's better... TWO turbos even better... for those that want an atomic powered rollerskate

The 407 has been a political football since it's inception. It was originally sold to pay down a hydro bond... that should have been budgeted for and paid out of general coffers... but wasn't. There's some good politicing. The sale was reported as a victory, to me it showed how bad the...

In a private sale, the vehicle wouldn't necessarily be registered to the new owner (the one that wants the safety)... so YEAH

How do you define "enthusiast"? The knob hangin' out at timmie's, dissing everything that isn't a BMW? In the racing world, you can usually find a class for what ever level of "nannies" you want. In drag racing there are tiers of "nannies" (I always ran "NO BOX"... no turbos, no power adders...

Wanna bet? ... which is sorta the basis of the complaining about "nannies"... no? ... and why the 911 will always be used as an example in this discussion, 911s are notoriously hard to drive FAST. You can get your 911 to 75-80% safely and easily... that last 20% requires balling up a couple or...

Try that in a 911 and see how for into the rhubarb you can get
