http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2014/1/6/...spicion-of-duiUFC Hall of Famer Tito Ortiz, was arrested last night following a one-car pileup on a Los Angeles freeway in the early morning hours. KTLA has the story:
The popular athlete, whose birth name is Jacob Christopher Ortiz, was taken into custody around 4:00 a.m. after a single-car collision near of on the 405 Freeway near Sepulveda and Santa Monica boulevards, the CHP said.
"Ortiz was driving northbound on the I-405 when he lost control of his vehicle and struck the concrete center median," the press release said.
Ortiz signed with Bellator last year and was set to fight Quinton "Rampage" Jackson in that promotion's first pay-per-view. That event was moved to free TV when Ortiz suffered a broken neck in training.
He is also managing the career of former women's Strikeforce champ Cris Cyborg and has been going through a messy break up with his porn legend spouse Jenna Jameson.
Rest assured Bloody Elbow will keep you updated on this important story.

Let's face it, blowers are cool. Even aside from their power-adding abilities, just the thought of some forced-induction widget affixed to a V-8 is enough to send tingles down the spine of just about any gearhead. From the moment we started driving our '10 SS project car, we knew one thing: it needed more power. Yep, even though the LS3 under the hood puts out a respectable 426 hp, it's hindered the by the Camaro's 3,900 pounds of girth. There was really no way to dramatically drop the car's weight, so the only thing left to do was increase the LS3's power.
Back in the old days, or with classic Camaros, there was a plethora of options open to us hot rodders. Slide in a big cam, drop on some ported heads, or kick it up a few notches by stroking the engine for more displacement. But we're talking about a '10 Camaro here, and the man with the government badge frowns on such actions. Even worse, we're in California! You know when you read a performance parts disclaimer and it says "49 state legal"? Well, we're the holdout state. As such, modifications done to our rides have to pass the stringent California Air Resources Board (CARB). The good news is that if a part passes our CARB maze of bureaucratic madness, it will easily pass the rules in the other 49 states.
With traditional methods of adding power out of the equation, we started looking at forced induction. Magnuson Products has been adding power to LS-based engines since about 2000. Their first kits were non-intercooled, but now they are, and more importantly, they've gotten the seal of approval from good old CARB. They even have a kit specifically designed for our '10 SS.
As Bob Roese of Magnuson told us, "while GM was designing the '10 Camaro, we knew much of the architecture was going to be similar to what we've done in the past. For the first time, we utilized the SEMA-shared technology initiative and used the information to design the initial system without even having a car present. When it was all said and done, we had a kit completed and installed on an early production Camaro weeks before the majority of cars hit the Chevrolet dealerships."
The MP 2300 TVS blower utilized in the Magnuson kit is in essence an air pump. Instead of air being drawn in through the top like a typical Roots unit, it's drawn in through the inlet port and pumped into the engine along the axis of the rotors. The intake is positioned on the end of the two rotors, which are designed to overlap, but not touch, leaving a small gap or pocket. As the rotors turn, the gap gets smaller. This accelerates the air as it moves along the rotors up to the point where it enters the intake.

But why waste so much space for a larger preview with nothing on the majority of the screen? Why not do it like Bing, which shows you the preview on mouse over, with even some minor options?
I thought that when i saw the image too, but I just tried it out: http://www.google.co...28%3B1646%3B828
Its actually pretty awesome! you get to see the large previews without changing page, if once you see it larger its not what you want. just scroll down and click another image and you get to see it bigger too
its a huge improvement IMO
its making better use of the space and you don't need to go back/forward all the time

One could take said Suzuki 600 motorcycle and simply put a race fairing on it and substantially alter it's appearance.
Or take Suzuki 600 and take all the fairing off, add a sidecar and different fuel tank, lights and etc.
Adding a wheel cannot be unlawful.
So if you remove the front forks from your Suzuki 600 motorcycle and weld them to a seat and two steerable front wheels you still have the same vehicle as in the examples above.
Altering/tampering with a VIN is just that. I've had VIN's made at trophy shops for stolen/recovered vehicles.
I'd say it's all conjecture and subject to interpretation.
There are many Manx VW bugs running around that bear absolutely no resemblance whatsoever of the original vehicle but run on the VIN under the passenger seat.
How about the VW/Bugatti? (Google it) Registered as a VW bug...looks like an ancient Bugatti.
Or any number of kit cars...Cobra, Mercedes K, Porsche racer, google them there are hundreds, most of them disguised as a hot car made from and registered as some mundane form of transport.
It all started for me in 1966 with a 50's 'Bond Mini-Car' (google it). A three wheeled alloy car with two wheels in the back and one in front, powered by a 250cc TWO STROKE single cylinder Villiers...KICK START ONLY..engine. I had to open the bonnet (hood) to kick start the engine. You only needed a motorcycle license to drive this car.
Most anything can and will be done. Laws are circumvented everyday on car pool lanes and smog requirements. Even the BIG manufacturers by pass laws....safety requirements are less on Trucks rather than passenger cars...why do you suppose almost every personal vehicle is a SUV anymore? You guessed it....less requirements.
If there is a will there is a way. We would have no new stuff and few inventions if people couldn't tinker around.
There is no law that says I can't cut my Hayabusa in half and put a car seat in there and an extra wheel. There are laws as to safety equipment, lights/brakes/steering and etc., and all that had better work unless I want a ticket.
So I can put a Goldwing engine in my VW bug and it's still a Bug. So I can put a VW engine in my Goldwing and it's still a Goldwing. So I can put the front end of my Harley Sportster on the back end of my pre 17 digit VW Bug (with engine) now I have a VIN on the Harley front end and a VIN under the seat of the Bug...work that one out (I've seen this vehicle numerous times in Los Angeles). Hundreds of Harley Trikes around, new and old, the old ones are generally VW powered.
I call poo poo on anyone that says this is not legal or simple, I say it is both LEGAL AND SIMPLE. Keep it simple. Just be mindful of safety and VIN requirements. Any vehicle with a pre 17 digit VIN can have that VIN hidden, it doesn't even need to be on display. Any 17 digit VIN is now known as a 'Public VIN' and must be displayed in plain sight. That is why after a certain year (1970 was it?) all vehicles have a Federal Public VIN, on cars and trucks it is on the windshield post. Look at old cars, some are on the dash, some are on the inside door post, some under the hood, some under the seat (VW).
When you go to DMV with an old vehicle and they say "it is out of the system" usually it's a pre 17 digit and not on the computer. The computer changed a lot of things. It can be used to one's advantage. Now the DMV just looks at the computer and works from whatever the screen says. A licensed dealer, LEO, wrecking yards and some others have access to the same screen as the DMV....so you have a great starting point and parameters with which to work with.
It's like our ex Governor Arnold riding his motorcycle and sidecar without a M on his license, it's considered a car! Yet my three wheeled car was considered a motorcycle!
I wouldn't sweat the details, honest I wouldn't.

possessing a vehicle that has the original manufacturer's ID removed is a federal felony
We are talking about USING the original ID in the build. Not removing it, altering it, USING it.
Funny when I went to get my stolen/recovered VW Cabriolet from the impound yard, it had the Public Vin Removed. They gave me the vehicle, I put my dealer plate on it and drove it back to the car lot. I possessed it. I fixed and replaced all the stolen/damaged items, had a VIN made and sold it in a VERY large vehicle auction complex that runs every VIN and inspects every VIN before entry to auction is allowed. Possessed and drove that thing for a couple of months prior to sale. Expect the buyer possesses it and drives it too.
weasel words...do like that though, haven't heard that one.
Don't think I used rationalize.....interpretation sure.....just like the Judge interpreted the law so you could drive your Manx Buggy.
So go on Ebay and 'search' kit car...I do..almost daily. You will find hundreds of Fiero's and Mustangs and all manner of crap disguised as fast, hot cars. All of them running on a VIN from the original mundane vehicle. Pontiac Fiero Ferrari's!
Bugatti VW's. Ferrari Daytona Datsuns. Ford Pinto Model A Fords. Some of these vehicles are offered for over $50,000.
So, whats to stop me pulling the body off my VW Bug and throwing on a Porsche 356 Cab body on top? NOTHING, I've done it and sold them on the used car lot. I've slammed Bugs, raised Bugs, shortened Bugs, cut the roof off Bugs, welded two different Bugs together. I made a whole new frame for a Ford Model A and used the vin from the original vehicle I had. Nothing was original on that car except the VIN. V8 engine replaced a flat four, all wheels and suspension was brand new up to date equipment, the inside looked like an aircraft, guess what?...it was a 32 Ford...sure was...not weasel worded interpreted as one..it was/is one....mine and thousands of others in possession by enthusiasts all over USA.
It's all about interpretation...it's not a weasel word...it's in Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary:
2: an instance of artistic interpretation in performance or ADAPTATION.
2: to conceive in the light of individual belief, judgement, or CIRCUMSTANCE.
3: to REPRESENT by means of art.
Take a look at the web site in which a guy puts a JET ENGINE in the back of a New Beetle and keeps the OEM in front.
Fun times at the smog station. Fun times when he encounters LEO.
It's called 'vehicle customizing'...it's the great American pastime. It's not a crime.

Someone with a dealer's license has lots more latitude when processing paperwork and registration than John Q. Public does around here. DMV can treat you like a criminal for the offense of trying to have fun with a vehicle. I went through "composite vehicle inspection" for a titled kit car purchased out of state. If I didn't know some people who knew people in DMV, I don't know how long it would have taken - as it was it took me 2 months. YMMV.

Obviously, I'm not going to change anybody's preconceptions. My only real point is that having gotten away with something of questionable legality is no reason to assure someone else that THEY won't have a problem.

Well if we are talking about 'sure things'....death and taxes
You can have an illegal vehicle any day of the week. Bulbs blow, license plate lights fail, tires wear out, smog equipment fails, mufflers fall off, seat belts malfunction any number of maladies can render you 'illegal' without even trying.
Useless argument..unsubscribed....bye...

for the doubters, a VW buggy like a Manx and the many clones still has the VIN in its original location, it is not modified, moved, defaced and on and on. they are still called VW's on the still legal title.
On my 47 Williys Jeep pickup, the VIN is under the drivers seat. different frame, motor, transmission, rear end and bed, but still the same as far as the Calif DMV is concerned.

If you want a racing trike, do you want one that could actually win a trike race?
If so, stop trying to make a bike into a trike. It adds weight to the bike, making it less competitive.
Instead start with a car. You will be removing weight from the car to make in into a racing trike. This will lead to a more race-like power to weight ratio, better brakes and suspension for a trike and save a ton of money in the process.

Diddy Ford outpaces Enzo at the 'Ring...
...using a 1.0 litre Ecoboost engine. The future's looking bright
Posted: 04 Sep 2012
So. Going fast around the Nürburgring is all about big engines and plenty of horsepower, right? Wrong.
Ford has just proved that size isn't everything by letting a one-off, street-legal version of its popular Formula Ford loose around the infamous 'Ring. Powered by the diddy 1.0-litre, three-cylinder Ecoboost engine (like in the new Focus), and a bit of a tailwind, it clocked a time of 7 minutes, 22 seconds. That's faster around the 'Green Hell' than a Lamborghini Aventador, Ferrari Enzo and Pagani Zonda.
Weight is obviously important - or lack of it. This racer weighs around 500kg and is modified to use Ford's 1.0-litre three cylinder in conjunction with the turbo from the standard Formula Ford. Boffins at Ford did tinker with the engine's ECU to squeeze out 202 bhp, 22 bhp more than the 1.6 litre that normally sits in the single-seater, but there were no major engine mods.
And thanks to some indicators, wing mirrors, wheel covers and a horn, you can even drive it to the shops. Yes, it's road legal. And if you can live without your creature comforts, it's even somewhat practical.
Of course, the headline stats of 0-62mph in under four seconds and a top speed of 158.8mph sound fantastic. But where it gets very interesting is fuel consumption. Ford is claiming that in testing, the EcoBoost-powered single-seater returned 118mpg at 35mph and 57mpg at 75mph. Now that's having your cake and eating it.
"This little engine has people rubbing their eyes in disbelief," said Nick Tandy, the man who piloted the car for the lap. "It's simply astonishing that a three-cylinder, 1.0-litre engine can deliver that kind of performance."
If you want to own the fastest, street-legal three-cylinder powered car to go around James' favourite race track, you can't, unless Ford agrees to build it. So click 'like' at the top of this article and we'll send a digital petition to Dagenham when it gets high enough...

EGLIN AIR FORCE BASE — During his first amateur mixed martial arts fight, Staff Sgt. Steve Burks was knocked unconscious twice, but still earned a victory.
Burks, an avionics Airman with the 1st Special Operations Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, is now on the eve of his second professional fight at the Strike Fight MMA event, here Dec. 8. His impressive record stands at 10-0 amateur, 1-0 professionally, but his three-year fight career started with a "bang" of a lights-out punch to the face.
"My trainers told me 'when that cage door shuts, your arms are going to feel like jello and you won't be able to move," said the 27-year-old, 145-pounder from Texas. "I brushed it off thinking it'll never happen, but sure enough, I was frozen."
That's when the darkness came with a punch, followed quickly by a kick to the head.
"I basically went blank after those two hits," said Burks. "I don't remember grabbing his leg, but I woke up somehow on top of him. That's when it all clicked, 'I'm in a fight. I better do something or he's going to kill me.'"
Burks said he didn't get hit anymore after that and he ended up winning by submission. What began painfully for the wrestling and submission specialist has flourished into an undefeated record. A feat made even more impressive while serving in the Air Force.
His fight preparation is a five-day-a-week workout for an hour and a half to three hours. The workouts occur after an eight to 10-hour shift on Hurlburt Field's gunship flightline.
"The time commitment you have to make is a difficult part of this sport," admitted Burks. "Running three miles a day won't get you in fighting shape. It's the sparing and rowing and more, and then you do it over and over again."
Daniel Silva, Burks' Brazilian jiu jitsu trainer, thinks if anyone can handle the pressures of the Air Force and MMA, it is Steve Burks. When he joined Silva's gym, he was so eager to get involved, he skipped the first-week-free trial and signed up for membership.
"Steve is the kind of person who can accomplish anything. He finds a way to get it done," said Silva. "He fights the same way. He finds a way to win. It may not be pretty, but he comes out on top."
To remain at the top, he'll have to take down Michael Roberts, who is also undefeated with a 1-0 professional record. Someone's winning streak will end Dec. 8.
"I've put a lot more work into this fight and I'm ready for war," said Burks. "I love to compete. I want to push myself every time I'm in the cage. I don't want an easy opponent."
Silva has made sure of that. He's handpicked the most challenging opponents Burks could bear to ensure he grew as a fighter.
"Steve is still young and he's got a lot to learn," said Silva. "With his heart and determination though, I definitely believe he could be a big star if he wanted to be."
Burks is must more humble about his prospects. He plans to make the Air Force a career and understands his commitment to service will always limit his fight ambitions. In January, he'll take on a new career challenge as an Air Force recruiter in the neighboring area.
"I just love fighting in MMA," said the soft-spoken Burks. "If I only ever fight locally, I'll be okay with that."
The fighting and the training are the easy parts for Burks. The diet and the mental aspects are the areas he says he struggles with the most.
"It's tough watching everybody else eating those big lunches and there I am with my tuna fish sandwich. The holidays only add to the torment," he said. "MMA and fighting is so much more of a mental battle than I ever thought. I've had fights where I knew I was in the best possible shape I could be and then I hit the ring. The nerves kick in, and I'll dump all of my adrenaline and end up exhausted and weak early in the fight."
The goal is to remain as relaxed and clear-minded as possible so the adrenaline is there when it's needed.
"You have to remain calm and know you're going to be nervous," he said. "When you walk out, there is a lot going on. Your friends and family are there screaming your name. People are cheering or booing you. You have to somehow block it all out."
That scenario will be amplified Dec. 8 at Strike Fight. With the event on an active-duty Air Force base, and only a short drive from his unit, the crowd will be primarily military, full of Burks' friends and coworkers.
With the crowd behind him, he'll enter the octagon showcasing the Air Force and try to earn win number 12 and remain undefeated.

Whether you're searching for a luxury condo, a single family home with a big backyard or anything in between, we make buying a house easy. View all Boston homes for sale, plus the photos, maps and local details you need to explore a neighborhood. When you're ready for assistance, your Boston real estate agent on ZipRealty.com will have the insight and real estate expertise to help you find (and win!) the home meant for you.
Rich with history and chalk-full of professional sports teams (go Pats!), Eastern Massachusetts offers both vibrant urban living, as well as a quiet residential lifestyle. From snowy winters to shining summers, residents enjoy four distinct seasons (or at least are prepared for them). And if summer gets too hot, join the flocks of people who head to the Cape each weekend.
Deeply rooted in American history, Boston is both the largest city in New England and the capital of Massachusetts. Densely populated with universities and colleges, the city's job market primarily revolves around biotech, education and government. Home of the world-famous Boston marathon, the city is also known for its wicked clam chowder and lobster rolls - yum!
Just south of Boston, Quincy is ideal for people who need easy access to the city, but want a more residential (and affordable) lifestyle. As the birthplace of President John Adams (and Dunkin' Donuts), the city has a rich past and many historical attractions - not to mention aquatic recreation: there are nearly a dozen beaches less than 30 miles away.
A diverse community just 20 miles west of Boston, Framingham offers easy commuter access to the vast metropolitan job opportunities coupled with the residential comforts (and cost of living) of a large town. Residents love soaking in the New England summer sun at three local beaches.

text: Cat6 cables that have terminated plugs on them from the factory, are they in the 'a' or 'b' configuration? I am planning on running some cables for a small networking project and I am thinking of leaving one of the pre-made plugs on and will just need to use wall plates for the other end. That means I will be using a punch down tool and I need to make sure that I set it up in the right configuration.

Here at VETTE, we've heard both sides of the engine-dyno argument. On one hand, a stout dyno sheet offers bragging rights to the owner, but on the other, you can't race a dynamometer, and they cost a lot of money to rent. We tend to agree somewhat with both sides, but see the engine dynamometer mainly as a very useful tool, especially when searching for peak power or trying a new engine combination.
Dyno time can be costly, but when compared with tuning an engine at the track, where you're at the mercy of the weather and traction conditions, it can also be less frustrating. Let's face it: Bending over freshly painted fenders, swapping spark plugs to a different heat range is no fun, and it risks damaging the painted surfaces around the engine. Track tuning also requires deadly consistency on the part of the car and the driver, meaning variables such as traction, shift points, and weather must be accounted for—not an easy task. On an engine dyno, there's never a traction issue, and it's far easier to duplicate or account for weather conditions and monitor engine functions in the controlled environment of a dyno cell.
Another reason for performing your initial break-in and tuning on a dynamometer is the ability to easily check for and correct any leaks. Nothing is worse than installing your new engine, finding a fluid or vacuum leak, and having to pull everything back out for repairs. Furthermore, since most coated exhaust headers aren't designed for the heat generated by an engine while seating the rings or breaking in the camshaft, the coating will often discolor or burn off during this process. Most dyno cells have multiple sets of headers for popular engine applications, allowing you to break in your engine with a seasoned set, or to try different header combinations to see what works best—without risking damage to your own pipes.
We recently dyno'd our 427ci small-block Chevy engine, dubbed the LS7 Killer, on the Superflow engine dynamometer at Auto Performance Engines here in central Florida. This engine certainly exceeded our expectations, making nearly 615 hp and 540 lb-ft of torque, and will make our '71 project car, C3 Triple-Ex, a fun ride. We didn't just dyno this engine to get power numbers, however; while on the dyno we made nearly 30 pulls to test everything from carb spacers to camshaft timing. This month we'll share what our dyno time taught us, and tell you what worked and didn't work on our stroked first-generation small-block Chevy.
Carburetors and Jetting
When tuning an engine, we usually start by jetting the carb for the proper air/fuel ratio. There's an old saying in engine tuning that you can be too rich a bunch of times, but only too lean once. With that in mind, we began this session by choosing an appropriately sized carburetor and making some partial pulls while watching the air/fuel meter. Most dyno facilities have an oxygen (or lambda) sensor in the dyno exhaust. This allows for real-time readings, so a pull can be aborted before a lean condition turns dangerous. Once on the rich side, we adjust the carb jetting up and down to find peak power within the safe range of 12.5 to 13.3 parts air for every one part fuel.
We tested two different Quickfuel carburetors on our small-block, the first being a 1,000-cfm Q-series four-barrel, and the second a 1,050-cfm QFX-4700 with a larger base flange. Both of these carbs had power valves to aid in street driving. While our engine ran well with both, it liked the volume of the 1,050, making the highest peak power and torque numbers. Using an Innovate Motorsports air/fuel meter, we achieved our best pull with No. 82 primary jets and 90 secondary jets. Moving to larger jets is the safer, richer direction to tune; smaller numbers mean less fuel and a leaner mixture. When tuning, remember that jets and ignition timing go hand-in-hand, so once a jet change is made, the timing should be adjusted and any changes noted.
Ignition Timing
While some engine tuners consider ignition timing to be a separate function from the air/fuel ratio of the engine, in reality the two must be considered together. If more fuel is added, the spark will likely need to ignite the mixture sooner to burn the fuel efficiently. Also, the amount of advance and when it comes in are both important considerations, especially when the engine has high compression like ours. We usually begin with a very conservative timing setting—somewhere around 28-30 degrees total advance—then listen very carefully during the first couple of dyno pulls for detonation (spark knock). If none is heard, or indicated by high EGT readings, we advance the ignition timing a degree at a time, searching for the setting that nets the best power without detonation.

Pam Utton managed medical offices for several years, but she also painted pet portraits as a side business. When she realized it was time to move away from the office, she recognized exactly what she needed to do.
She trained to become a groomer and she opened Cool Dog Grooming Studio in December 2012.
"How much better would my art be if I could feel the texture of these different breeds," she asked, noting that when she's not grooming, she's painting.
"I'm a compassionate groomer," Utton also said. She maintains a spa-like atmosphere to reduce stress for the pups, and she avoids multi-dog, production-line care.
Her studio features an extra large tub, so even the biggest breeds can easily move into the bathing facility.
"I don't need to stress out a large dog by trying to lift it up into a small tub," she added.
Cool Dog Grooming Studio offers full-service grooming, which includes nail trimming and individualized treatment with no cookie-cutting shortcuts.
"Every dog gets their own hair cut. Every dog gets their own style," Utton said.
LOCATION: 801 N. Wilson St., Crestview
HOURS: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Mondays through Fridays; 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturdays

Working as a personal trainer had long been a side business for Kendra Nixon, but in February she took the side business to the next level by offering Get To Work Fitness.
"I've got a few places where I meet people to work with them," she said, noting that she has ties with SNAP Fitness on Racetrack Road and with chiropractor Bradley Young on Eglin Parkway. Nixon also meets clients in the fitness center of Destin United Methodist Church.
Nixon's training background focuses on helping people who experienced injury and want to get back to work without pain.
"So many times people have been injured," she said. "They get eight or 10 sessions of physical therapy through their insurance."
When the PT ends, she continues the work.
"I can certainly be a regular trainer," she added. "I can help (clients) lose weight."
In addition, Nixon has a background in injury prevention through fitness, and she offers seminars to businesses and corporations.
"It can help relieve people being out sick and with health costs," she said of the seminars.

Bellator's Fight Master reality television debut season was expected to close with a fight between finalists Joe Riggs and Mike Bronzouli on Saturday. However, it was announced earlier today that Riggs suffered suffered a partial orbital bone fracture and retina detachment in training three weeks ago, and the bout will be postponed until he recovers.
My sparring partner threw a high kick and I blocked it, but his toe went through my head gear, said Riggs. I was in horrible pain and they had to pry my eye open to see the damage.
Riggs underwent a four-hour surgery for the injury that night, he said, and spent four days recovering in an Arizona hospital. Riggs said the surgery was successful and his physician has already cleared him to train again.
I can be ready in October or Nov. 2, if they need me, said Riggs.

link two time capsules
Dear All,
I'd like to connect two time capsules in order to have more free space. Is it possible and if zes, how. Thank you in advance!
- Asked by Zoltan T
QA Apple Time Capsule
Product No Longer Available
1 Answer from the Community
For storage purposes, while two Time Capsules can coexist on the same network, they will not coordinate with each other any better than if you were to connect one or more external drives to a single Time Capsule to expand your accessible storage space.
For Time Machine purposes, the same procedure that governs the operation of a single Time Capsule (and connected external USB drives) would still apply to the operation of two like Time Capsules on the same network.

"You can't have your cake and eat it too" is a ridiculous saying. What else would you do with a cake? Wear it? Put it on a shelf? Leave it out in the rain? What exactly does the saying mean to imply? That once laboring to bake and decorate a cake you somehow aren't expected to actually enjoy the fruits of your labor? That's a ludicrous idea. Rather, the saying should be, "If you want to eat a whole cake, you better make it yourself."
Enjoying the spoils of hard work is part of the American dream. The idea that anyone can pull themselves up by their bootstraps from impoverished circumstances to enjoy a successful life and eventual peaceful retirement is what fuels thousands of immigrants to leave their native countries and move to the United States every year. And what better vehicle to embody the true spirit of the American dream than the Chevrolet Corvette. Coming from humble but optimistic beginnings, the tiny roadster first aimed its sights at the European two-seaters. But with the hot rod craze in full swing, the General redirected its direction towards the V-8 domestic market. There, the Corvette would flourish. Larger engines, new innovations such as fuel injection, advances in suspension and handling equipment, and sharper, more aggressive styling would cement the Corvette as one of the most iconic American cars ever.
Since its modest early development, the Corvette has grown into a true performance vehicle, with more and more aftermarket and private parties contributing to the Corvette's legacy. In conjunction with the already stout factory performance, aftermarket tuned Vettes are some of the most formidable vehicles on the road today.
Take, for example, Dan and Gina Cassinelli's '96 Callaway Supernatural Grand Sport. By 1996, Chevrolet was offering a series of fearsome performance options. Fresh from the success of the ZR-1, GM chose to take their legendary 350 small-block, then labeled the LT1, and tweak it slightly, redubbing it the LT4. The new LT4 sported thirty more horses than its more subdued sibling. The LT4 was fitted with higher compression (10.8:1 versus the previous 10.4:1), new redesigned aluminum heads, a revised camshaft, Crane roller rockers, and a greatly improved throttle body. The LT4 engine was available in 1996 as either an optional powerplant on top of the base Corvette or the standard engine for the venerable Grand Sport, a performance package that delivered more than just good looks. Mandatory in Admiral Blue with a white center stripe and red hash marks on the driver side front fender, the GS came with the aforementioned lung mated to a performance bred six-speed manual transmission, as well as ZR-1 wheels, painted black, and racing tires and optional suspension upgrades that could be individually selected.
