View attachment 229593 Homie- areo doesn’t matter for quarter mile times. I mean it sort of does, but really it doesn’t. Its low on the priority list is what I’m trying to say. If all you’re doing is going for 1/4 mile times, take a look at thing. It used to be a corvette, and is a multiple time world record holder for the fastest stickshift GM vehicle in the quarter mile (on mobile. Image at the top of post). It was the first stickshift GM into the 7 second range. Areo for drag racing when you get into Promods and Funny car stuff does start to matter then, yes. But not for our class of vehicle. Yes, areo on our vehicles DOES matter for highway fuel economy, but not in the city. Why does it not matter in the city? Because wind resistance doesn’t start to take effect until above 45 miles per hour.

I have no idea what you’re on about when it comes to NNBS 1.0 vs 2.0. I’d happily take a VortecMax over a two mode hybrid simply because the battery management system of the hybrids, based on what I’ve read, leads me to believe that it beats the hell out of the battery packs. Its also a bear to try and tune from what I hear.
there is some body differences between the NNBS 2007 and NNBS-H 2008 ...


even with a 11 year old battery it still :burnout:spins the tires without even trying... i accidentally peeled out in front of a cop too luckily he all ready was working on a ticket for someone else.. :eek:

when I run the suv I have the A/C on the floor so the battery can get cool air my cabin is only 50F degrees in the summer while those poor people outside have to suffer in the 100 degree heat..
YES i can see my breath it's that cold.. I'm kinda surprised it's not snowing inside

thanks to my Industrial Sized Electrical A/C system.. /

How old is he? My oldest is 28. It's always nice when the kids take an interest in learning something--ANYTHING, from their parents lol.

He is 15, and will turn 16 in November. All of my kids got their own basic set of tools for Christmas when they were 8. My second oldest son will help work on stuff sometimes but is more interested in helping me cook, grill, smoke. My daughter, #3, loves to help me whether it is woodworking, carpentry or mechanic work. My youngest is special needs due to his biological parents abusing him at 1-1/2 months of age. He was given a 1% chance of surviving and was never supposed to walk, talk or see due to the amount of brain damage from being shaken. We had him as a foster child and adopted him when he was 2. He is now 9 and just started 4th grade. He has beat a lot of the odds and helps when he can. He is pretty savvy with Minecraft and Xbox.

BTW, we adopted our 15 yr old out of foster care when he was 2 as well.

Got the yellow LED fog light bulbs installed. The clips on these housings are pretty brittle and dont provide much feedback. I’m a little suspect if they are actually engaged but they passed the wiggle test. Had to come back inside because of the heat. Next project is going to be oil change and then catch can while I wait for the engine bay to cool down.

I used to love having my son with me, working on my cars, and just plain spending time with him. He's a mechanic now. Anyone can have kids, but not everyone can be a parent :waytogo:. Job well done my friend.
