Anthony Le Donne suggested on his blog (and in a recent conference paper) that a story in the Babylonian Talmud, in b. Menaḥoth 29b, might be the first science fiction story. In it, Moses time travels to Rabbi Akiba's time. But is time travel enough to make a story science fiction? I've long pondered this topic, namely [Read More…]

Well, this'll be enough to start another caliber war. I'll say at the outset that any and all of the service-sized calibers you mentioned work fine for defense. My general opinion is that people put way too much mental energy into the minutiae of caliber and bullet selection, when all popular calibers will do fine if shot well.
9mm is fine with good modern JHPs. It has light recoil and is less expensive to shoot than the others.
.357SIG is more powerful, at least on paper, than 9mm and kicks harder/snappier. It is quite a bit more expensive to shoot and harder to find.
.40S&W is more powerful than 9mm and also kicks harder/snappier.
.45ACP works well with practically any bullet design. It kicks harder than 9mm but isn't snappy. Guns for .45ACP have to be made bigger than the others.
Pick what you like, but remember that in the grand scheme of self-defense, the particular caliber chosen is among the least relevant factors.

Hind legs collapsing
Today my 6 year old German Shepherd's hind legs collapsed from under him after I had just got back and was out in the garden playing ball with him. It is the first time it has happened and lasted roughly 2-3 mins. As he lay on the grass I massaged his hind legs and he rolled on his back and since then he has been fine! Ate his dinner and played ball. So obviously I was worried and googled it (I know I shouldn't!) and seen that it could be something like: heart failure, arthritis, nerve problems, exhaustion etc..!
I am going to go the vets tomorrow as they are shut today and see what the vet says but was wondering if anyone had any other solutions!?
Wow....I imagine it was a tough time on you seeing this happen....hopefully all is well and am glad to hear he was fine after the episode.
If you would be as kind to post after the vet's visit with what they have to say...it would be appreciated.
I know it is agonizing to watch your dog come up limping or worse when they get going real hard and hurt themselves...
Hopefully, it's just some cramping or very brief discomfort which has already come to pass.
you are already acting on the best solution, get to the vet. hope all goes smoothly. agreed, get back to us after vet visit.
Hi guys,
Quick update. Popped the vets and told them what had happened and that he is back to normal now. They said that it could of been a stroke or a seizure! Told me to monitor him and if it happens again then take him in.
Relieved to have an idea what it was but still worried about it happening again and him getting worse!
have him SEEN, by a another vet. just my opinion.
Have him seen by an animal chiropractor. With sharp twists and turns, could have slipped a disc and pinched a nerve.
Should also look into what you are feeding, if you are not providing a biologically available food source (RAW), there could be a nutritional deficiency - need to nourish the ligaments, cartilage, joint fluids, soft tissues, nerves (myelin sheath) and muscles that hold all in place.
You can have a nutritional deficiency on raw feeding GatorBytes, probably easier than on kibble, if you don't do it right.
I agree a chiropractor might be in order, but I'd do more diagnostic stuff first, OP. Maybe get some x-rays done?
Raw Pet Food And AAFCO | Dogs Naturally Magazine
^^^Re: Kibble and AAFCO guidelines (remember - aafco is based on min. requirements)
Currently AAFCOs requirement for zinc, for example, is based on the low bioavailability of zinc in kibble: phytates in kibble bind with zinc, making zinc unavailable to the dog. With meat based raw foods, there are no phytates so this isnt an issue. Zinc also interacts with calcium. Less zinc is needed in diets lower in calcium while more zinc is needed in diets high in calcium. If one uses NRC Guidelines, a 33 pound dog would require 52.5 mg zinc for 3500 kcal, but AAFCO would require 120 mg for the same size dog. Thats understandable if most of the zinc isnt bioavailable, but what happens when the zinc is easily bioavailable, as it would be in a raw diet? Could the current levels cause raw manufacturers to put too much zinc in their diets in order to meet AAFCO standards? As with all micronutrients, an overdose could be harmful.
The ratios of food ingredients, such as calcium and phosphorus, vitamin D and calcium, copper and zinc, vitamin E and fats, are important. Phytates in grains and fiber and legumes bind with zinc, calcium, iron, and magnesium and make these critical minerals less available to the body. According to the NRC Guidelines, If the Ca:P ratio exceeds 2:1 or the diet contains significant amounts of phytate, (phosphorus) absorption will decrease.
Foods with grains therefore need to add more phosphorus to meet the requirements of a dog than a meat based raw diet would. Requiring both to have the same amount of phosphorus doesnt make sense and is potentially harmful. The amount of protein on a label also doesnt tell you if the amino acids are in balance with one another or if the protein is in a usable form. High heat and processing can reduce the availability of amino acids, especially lysine, methionine and cysteine.
Many of the required nutrients (and there are over 40) are reactive or labile under the conditions of extrusion and high heat, so AAFCO nutrient profiles have been established to try to make up for this. Raw food however, doesnt undergo the same heat and processing.
I'm not saying kibble is the best (I feed raw), but if you don't get the ratios right, you can absolutely screw up feeding raw :)

A row over a new crossing of the river near the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon has opened up what may turn out to be an unbridgeable divide between two local councils.
Last December, Warwickshire county councillors voted to go ahead with a £2m plan to span the Avon with what is described as the thinnest arch bridge in the world. Designed by Ian Ritchie Architects to create "minimal disruption to the landscape", the bridge plan forms part of World Class Stratford, a scheme to invest in and improve the town, and so halt a slide in visitor numbers.
But Stratford district councillors, responding to local claims that the bridge - serving pedestrians and cyclists - was an unnecessary eyesore, voted to abandon the project. Now the county, which has the final say, is defiantly pressing on to the next design stage, even though four surveys, including the county's own, have shown that the majority of Stratford citizens oppose it.
The row, say local observers, has turned into a battle between activists who oppose all change in Shakespeare's town and others who claim Stratford cannot afford to stand still.
The campaign against the bridge has been headed by Stratford Voice, a group set up 18 months ago to oppose "unsuitable developments" in the town. "We may have lost this battle but we have NOT lost the war," says a message on the group's website.
John Maples, Stratford's Conservative MP, has asked John Edwards, chief executive of Advantage West Midlands, the regional development agency, to think again about funding the bridge. "People do not like the look of it or the idea of an interruption to the view down the river," he says.
The bridge's principal supporter is Chris Saint, a member of the district council and the county council, where he is portfolio holder for economic development. He says: "The bridge is needed to link the two open spaces on either side of the river. It would also itself be a tourist attraction."
"What would be the point of asking people for their views and then ignoring them?" asks Hazel Wright, LibDem group leader on Stratford district council. "People come to Stratford because they like what the town is like now."

The most common cause of eyelid swelling is eye allergies. Eye allergies sometimes cause significant discomfort, often interrupting daily activities with annoying symptoms such as eyelid irritation and swelling. Eye allergies develop when the immune system overreacts to a certain allergen. When exposed to the allergen, cells in the eyes release histamines and other chemicals in an effort to protect the eyes, causing blood vessels inside the eyes to swell, and the eyes to become itchy, red and watery. Prescription medications are highly effective in relieving symptoms. Antihistamines often reduce eyelid swelling caused by allergies rather quickly.

A stye is caused by an inflammation and bacterial infection of the oil producing glands in the eyelid. Styes are sometimes itchy and tender to the touch. Styes usually appear as a reddish bump on the eyelid. When a stye first develops, the eye may feel bruised and may feel sensitive to light. A chalazion develops when one of these glands becomes blocked. The gland develops into a hard lump and may result in redness and swelling of the eyelid. If you develop a stye, apply warm, wet compresses for 5 to 10 minutes,a few times a day. This will usually make your eye feel more comfortable and may also help to open any blocked pores so that drainage can occur and the stye will start to heal.

Pink eye or conjunctivitis is an inflammation of the conjunctiva. The conjunctiva is a clear mucus membrane that lines the inside of the eyelid and covers the white part of the eye. Conjunctivitis is usually caused by allergies, bacteria or viruses. Patients may wake up to find one or both eyes stuck together with mucus when they wake up in the morning. The eyelids may become swollen, and the eyes may become red, itchy and irritated.

Cellulitis is a more serious cause of eyelid swelling. There are two main types of cellulitis that eye doctors concern themselves with when a patient comes in with eyelid swelling: preceptal cellulitis and orbital cellulitis.

Preceptal cellulitis is usually caused by a bacterial infection. Patients usually have redness and pain in addition to swelling. It usually occurs in one eye. Orbital cellulitis can also be caused by bacteria in the form of a sinus infection that invades the area around the bones that make up the eye socket. People with orbital cellulitis may have a bulging eye and pain when moving their eyes back and forth.

People with Graves' disease or other thyroid problems often suffer from eyelid swelling. Graves' disease can cause proptosis or bulging of the eyes. Although it can affect one eye more, it usually affects both eyes. Sometimes Graves' disease can cause reduced eye movements or double vision. Hypothyroidism can also cause both eyes to be somewhat swollen or puffy.

Eye herpes is an inflammation of the cornea, the clear dome that covers the front part of your eye. Eye herpes (also called ocular herpes) can produce painful sores on the eyelid or eye surface and cause inflammation of the cornea as well as eyelid swelling. Symptoms of eye herpes often mimic those associated with conjunctivitis. While a mild amount of facial swelling is normal when we wake up in the morning, severe eyelid swelling is not.

3 food rules you should steal from the world's healthiest diet
By Carolyn Malcoun, February 18, 2010 - 11:47am
Carolyn asks: What food "rules" do you follow to stay healthy?
I'm right there with you!
Eating whole foods is the way to go. It's not fat persay that causes problems, it's processed food and stress.
I'm a journalist specializing in farming and local eating. My philosophy is that the move away from an "old time" way of eating is correlated with the move away from small family farms in the US. And all of this is tied together with social and cultural changes that make us unhealthy.
If you feel like it, check out my new blog at www.thefarmingjournalist.com. I'm in New England as well.

Thanks for this article, but it is very confusing with the warnings against pasta and weight gain.

Ignore "warnings" against foods like pasta and eggs. If you eat foods high in carbs and sit on your sofa every night, then yes, weight gain is inevitable. But if you actually eat the proper portions, do some walking or exercise, you won't have much to worry about.
I am in Italy once a year and can attest to the diet. Eat what you love...in moderation. You'll go nuts trying to keep up with "eat this, don't eat that" fads that frequent our newscasts. Remember when eggs were bad? Now they're back.
When little old European people start dying off because of eating good food and drinking wine, then I'll consider a change! Everything else on the airways is garbage.

I dislike Italian food. All that bread and pasta, and cheese, and tomato sauces. Eek. I like the idea of fish and veggies, and beans, and we eat plenty of it. But pastas and breads... I was starving when I ate them (yes, ONLY the whole-grain variety, never white), and switching to real grains from flour products made a lot of difference for me. And, NO, I was NOT sitting on the sofa, I am excersising at least 60 minutes a day, daily, generally aiming for 2 hours. And I have rigorous portion control. And I was trying to eat 1,400 calories appropriate for my height. And pastas and breads made me super-hungry and made me crave starches and sweets. So, not everything is a fad on the news, I am glad that this particular one started surfacing lately. Otherwise, I would still be going crazy with hunger because I was led to believe that whole-wheat flour products are good for me.

I follow all these rules, I love the feeling that you get when you prepare a fresh and wholesome good for you meal, I also love pasta and I can say that I preapre very good pasta dishes; I love kale so I make sure that it's included on most of my meals and I have converted my family to eat it on regular basis.

I think you should plan your meals for taste, nutrition and energy! For example, I start out with a healthy breakfast with fruit and grains and sometimes I will have scrambled eggs (no toast!) topped with tomato salsa for a treat! I like to spice it up! It is important to make choices that count. Food eaten must have a purpose. Even snacks can have a purpose. Once you start studying healthy foods, you need to incorporate as many as possible into your regiment. If you are doing this correctly, you will not be hungry. In fact, you will have to be creative to eat all of the differents vitamins and nutrients everyday. Believe it or not, you will be surprised how much better you will feel!

I think the problem for a lot of people is that they don't realize how easy it can be to make your own food. You might have to sacrifice some of your options, and you may not get a biscuit that resembles the Pillsbury variety, but you will be better off for it. There is also something special you give to anyone you feed when you've put your love into it, even if it only took you a few minutes. Look for simple recipes to make things like biscuits, or banana bread; rather than opting for a dessert from the bakery aisle at the grocery store. With some exceptions, I opt for fresh/frozen fruit/veggies over canned. Tomatoes being an exception. I feel like the fresher you can get your food, the better you feel about it. Buy produce at a local farmers' market. Most of us don't have time to spend planning and abiding by a strict and structured diet, so we slack and eat processed foods. Just try taking baby steps, you don't have to graph your caloric intake to be healthier.

In Janurary we changed our diet completely. Our goal is to eat 30 grams of fiber a day. We eat nut butters,crisp breads,nuts, beans,non fat dairy products,lean meats olive and avacado oils, and lots of dark colored vagetables. I have to brag, we have lost 30 lbs,dropped our total cholesterol by 100 points and brought our A1C down to 5.6 ! My husband is 59 and I'm 53. Our #1 rule is to eat healthy for the rest of our lives.

CDARS is a service provided by select banks that allows you as a depositor to get up to $50,000,000 in FDIC insurance for Certificates of Deposit. The system works by distributing your deposit to other banks in the CDARS network so that no one bank holds over the maximum amount insured by the FDIC. In the case of Certificates of Deposit that expire before December 31, 2009, that would be $250,000 per bank. The amount for a Certificate of Deposit that expires after that date would be $100,000.
For the customer, this process is seamless. Here's an example of how this would work:
- You walk into your bank with $2,000,000 you want to deposit into a 3 year CD.
- They quote you a rate and tell you it will be distributes via the CDARS network. You agree and sign the consent form.
- After you make the deposit, the money is broken up into denominatins of less than $100,000 (it has to be less to allow for interest) and then distributed to other participating banks that are FDIC insured. Let's assume it is broken into $90,000 denominations and it is sent to 23 different banks.
- Your money collects interest, is fully FDIC protected. You receive a statement from the original bank where you made the deposit.
- When your CD expires, you can go to the original bank and withdraw the full amount or roll the money over for another period.
The Benefits of CDARS
- Up to $50,000,000 in FDIC insurance. Using CDARS you can insure up to $50,000,000 with the FDIC.
- One Bank . There is no longer any need to run around to different banks opening accounts to ensure your money is fully FDIC insured.
- One Statement. You receive one statement from the original bank.
- One Rate. You receive one rate regardless of how many banks are used to insure your money.
The Disadvantages of CDARS
- Potentially lower rate. You may receive a lower rate because CDARS charges banks a transaction fee. Banks often pass this fee on to their customers in the form of a lower rate. Banks will waive this fee for good customers.
- Lack of Certainty. You do not get to choose which banks your funds are sent to nor do you even know. The only thing you do know is that every bank that accepts your deposits will be FDIC insured.

Lee Dong Wook to be New Host for 'Strong Heart'
Lee Dong Wook confirmed he would be the new host for SBS' Strong Heart.
Producer Park Sang Hyuk of Strong Heart said, "I think highly of the skill in variety that Lee Dong Wook showed in various programs including Healing Camp and his radio show in military broadcasting. We believe his experiences as an actor in a variety of pieces will help him in his role as the MC of a talk show."
"Please look forward to how Lee Dong Wook will lead Strong Heart with his wit and his variety skills. You'll be able to meet a new Lee Dong Wook," he added.
Lee Dong Wook said through his agency King Kong Entertainment, "I'm happy and honored to be the MC of Strong Heart. I'm looking forward to it because it's a new challenge different from acting. I'll work hard so that I can become a host that is loved and can work with the viewers."
The first episode of Strong Heart featuring Lee Dong Wook as an MC will air on April 10.

7/30/2012 / Short Stories
With a fragrant Puffs tissue, I wiped beaded perspiration from my brow before applying final touches of black-eyeliner. I sprayed Avon-Unforgettable cologne beneath my ear lobes, on forearms and wrists. Andy, my new love, could arrive any minute, and I wanted to please him. Standing before the dresser in my parent's room, I took a final glance in the mirror. From my geometric-blunt haircut, to white ruffled blouse and stretch aqua striped denims, I looked Mod from head-to-toe.
A small table fan had drowned out the sound of someone knocking at the kitchen screen door
My kid sister Gail rushed in. With shocked expression, and hushed tones, she confided.
"Neil is waiting for you in the kitchen!"
There I stood, primping for Andy; to my horror, my old boyfriend dropped in unannounced.
"What am I going to do?"
She smiled, shrugged, and agreed to be close by for moral support.
By the time we reached the small kitchen, our mother had already offered him a seat. Nervously, I greeted him and sat down at the opposite end of the table. We had not met face-to-face, since he left for boot camp, at Fort Benning, Georgia. Before his departure, without as much as a good-bye phone call, we had dated on a regular basis. He never officially asked me to go steady, but we were decidedly a couple.
Away from his familiar surroundings, family and friends, he quickly succumbed to homesickness for Yankee country. He contacted me right away. I lived from one airmail letter to the next, and was ecstatic every time he found the opportunity to call from a booth on base. I framed the picture of him in his Army drab green-dress uniform, and mooned like a lost pup. After top brass had him stationed at Fort Polk Louisiana, his correspondence became scarce and I was heartsick.
There, at a normally cozy kitchen table, small talk stifled the air. How could I breach the present obstruction, in a once meaningful relationship? I waited, for what seemed an eternity, for my date to rescue me. I did not intentionally deceive Neil. Andy's home state was Louisiana, and I had called him to inquire about Fort Polk.
Through a friendly chat, he explained that the base was in the city of Alexandria. Andy revealed, at the age of eighteen, he himself, at any day, expected a letter from the draft board. Likely, he'd be fighting in the Vietnam War. I'd shared that information with Neil. Of late, his letters were sporadic. Andy asked me to go out with him. At first, I refused, but later accepted his invitation.
In relentless heat and distress, through parted caf curtains, I watched for Andy. When he arrived, I introduced the two. I was in the security of my kitchen, but at that moment, it seemed more like a conference room holding a delegation from the U.S. and U.S.S.R. I listened to taunts exchanged between my beaus. Andy delighted in Louisiana. Neil deplored it.
"Mosquitoes nearly ate me alive! The humidity was terrible!"
Neil could not think of one thing good to say about Louisiana, unless it was good riddance!
Mom offered everyone instant iced tea, and I was glad to have something to divert our attention away from the rift. Our kitchen, though small, had never seemed so cramped. The conversation was going nowhere, and I was beginning to feel the same. Suddenly, Andy spoke to my mother, who stood looking towards our table, with her back leaning against the sink.
Mom, why don't you sit down?"
He had never called her Mom before!
The icy stare, in Neil's gaze, sent a chill through the sultry kitchen.
"Guess I'll be going." He made a speedy departure through the screen door, slipped inside his 1957 Chevy wagon, backed out onto the road, screeched his tires, in a quick get-away.
I felt no remorse in the severing of a faltering relationship. Andy had sealed ours. We married after Christmas, and settled in Dixie Land I recall tales of a far distant era, and a San Antonio mission. William Travis drew a line of declaration in the sand, at the barricaded Alamo. Staunch-hearted men, in loyalty, rallied around a call for freedom. "Remember the Alamo!" My Andy-Reb won the War Between the States! I crossed the Macon-Dixon line, burning bridges to past beaus behind me. Andy, in his reference to my mother as Mom, drew a line at the sink. "Remember the kitchen!"

Do the Constitution's structural limits on federal authority impose constraints on the scope of Congress' authority to enact legislation to implement a valid treaty, at least in circumstances where the federal statute, as applied, goes beyond the scope of the treaty, intrudes on traditional state prerogatives, or is unnecessary to satisfy the government's treaty obligation? What is the extent of authority under the Chemical Weapons Convention Implementation Act, 18 U.S.C. §229, and how does it affect the balance of power between the state and federal governments?
On November 4, 2013, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in U.S. v. Bond, which examines these questions. Our experts will attend the oral arguments and offer their analysis of the merits of the case and the likely outcome in light of the day's proceedings.

Florida Counties to Sue Over New State Medicaid Law
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - The Florida Association of Counties says it will challenge a new Medicaid law that's expected to cost local taxpayers millions.
The association on Thursday announced it'll sue in the coming weeks. The case will be filed in state Circuit Court in Tallahassee.
The new law will require counties to pay more than $300 million in disputed billings owed to the state-federal health care program.
The counties contend they are being made to pay for mistakes by the state's electronic billing system. The law's supporters say the counties simply are trying to avoid payment.
In signing the law on March 29, Gov. Rick Scott promised steps would be taken to make sure the bills are accurate.
Counties are required to pay part of their residents' Medicaid costs.

Davis-Standard, LLC, Pawcatuck, Conn., has joined with Scantech Americas, Lansdowne, Va., to offer an X-ray transmission scanner for measuring sheet thickness. The high degree of accuracy in Scantech's gauging system is said to allow processors to make better, flatter, and more reproducible sheet in less time. One such scanner was recently installed this year on a proprietary PET line, and was linked to D-S's EPIC control system, enabling the operator to make adjustments as needed. The result was a better product with significant savings in startup time, waste, and material cost.
Scantech's X-ray gauge is an alternative to more commonly used gamma backscatter or beta gauges. The online X-ray transmission is non-nuclear and provides accurate measurement for flatweb processes. Scantech's measurement systems measure thickness, weight, material composition, web width, surface roughness, and moisture, as well as provide defect and edge detection. D-S tested the X-ray gauge for almost a year in a variety of applications, with better-thanexpected results. Scantech has also been working with D-S's Converting Systems Group on cast, stretch, and laminated films and nonwoven applications.

General Guerrero, on the count's entrance to Guaymas, ordered the honours due to a commander-in-chief to be paid him.
"So the consul at Guaymas reported," was Loring's brief reply.
At Guaymas a similar policy produced similar results, and the people felt anxious to have Campusanos forces leave the vicinity.
Then, so soon as our horses have rested, my comrade and myself will return to Guaymas.
The latter, sick almost unto death, and incapable of connecting two ideas, had received orders to leave Guaymas immediately.
The arrival of the French company, however, was anxiously expected at Guaymas.
Hence it is easy to comprehend the earnest desire Don Sylva felt to quit Guaymas at as early an hour as possible.
In reality, since my arrival at Guaymas, your conduct toward me has been inexplicable.
Cuchillo has already related how the English brig brought him to Guaymas.
For three hours the battle raged on the rocky streets of Guaymas.

Though vegetarian dishes featuring rice and a variety of beans dominate Indian cuisine, India's cooking has also been influenced by traders such as the Arabs and Chinese, and invaders such as the Persians, Mongols, Turks, British and Portuguese. North Indian food features more dairy and pulses, while South Indian cooking includes more rice, curries, and fruits like coconut.
1/2 cup water
1 lb. fresh spinach, washed, de-stemmed, coarsely chopped
3 T ghee or butter
1 T finely chopped ginger
1/2 c. finely chopped onion
1 t salt
1/4 t ground cumin
1/4 t turmeric
1/2 t ground coriander
1/2 t garam masala
1 cup cheese (paneer), cut into 1-inch cubes
Combine 1/2 of the water and a handful of the spinach in a jar of a blender. Blend at high speed for 30 seconds. Keep adding spinach until about half is blended. Add a little more water, if necessary, to puree.
In a large skillet, heat the butter over moderate heat. Add the ginger and saute for one minute. Add the onions and salt and continue sauteing for 5 more minutes.
Stirring after each addition, add the cumin, turmeric, coriander, and garam masala. Then stir in the leafy and pureed spinach. Reduce the heat and cook the mixture uncovered, for 20 to 30 minutes. Most of the liquid should evaporate. At the last minute, gently add the paneer. Serve hot.

just looked at weiand boost chart and for my 0.8 underdriven it shows around 12 psi for a 350 but i have a 351 with a 30thou over bore. so i think around 11psi approx
Please tell us what the tubes from the carb are connected to (I think you said to the intake below blower), and where the vacuum ports are located on the carb itself. A carb w/an added on boost referenced power valve port looks like the one shown below:
Last edited by cobalt327; 10-17-2012 at 03:52 PM.
The first thing you need do is replace carbs or get ur fuel injection that u spoke of before you continue im telling u with cast piston and what u have going on not going last long before you shatter a piston and have alot more exspensive problems I wouldnt drive it as is if it was mine not at all
i do not have what you have pictured . under the primary float bowls i have take offs with tubes on them coming out from the base of the carbs. currently these a stopped up with a small bolt .
from what i understood these carbs need a tube to read vacum ? i may be missing the point on that as some also use the take offs for the dizzy and other parts that i dont have on the engine .
this set up was working on a chevy when i bought it from the guy . i agree the carbs do need to be tuned and boost referneced and i have read alot about it and can be achieved. i havnt the money yet to buy fuel inj .
what do you think is a safe psi figure for the street ?
hi have keith black hyperutectic psitons. have reserached them and as long as detonation is kept at bay they are fine .
Yea they are fine if u have none but I can assure u with what u are saying u are not keeping detonation at bay with kb cast piston a little is to much they will shatter dont know wby anyone would put that kind of money into a engine place a blower on it and not use forged piston they are not that much more but yea if u get carbs replaced or figured out and lower boost psi they will live for a little while wouldnt run but bout 6 maybe 8 psi and if set up worked when u got it why mess with it what was the problem
That might not sound like much, but the ability of the rest of the vehicle to put that much hp to the ground needs to be considered as well. A lot of power is great- what's not so great is if all it does is make the rear tires spin. Or worse, break driveline parts.
The main thing now is keeping the engine from detonating from too much timing vs. boost. Spending on a boost referenced timing retard like the MSD boost timing master will be cheaper in the long run than cracking pistons or pinching the rings. It will also allow the engine to be tuned to run better than locking the timing. The MSD 8762 needs an ignition box like the MSD 6 series. You should be able to use the crank trigger you have.
If you are reasonably competent (which I'm betting you are) you can boost reference the carbs yourself. If they're 4150 series carbs I would use them, at least for now. Using a pair of 750 cfm blower carbs would be something else to consider if you end up buying different carbs in the future- especially if you go back up in boost.
Above, I missed where you mentioned the carb's secondary vacuum housings were what had the vacuum lines to them, sorry about that.

mustang 671 (10-18-2012)
yep im able to boost ref the carbs. trust me that will be easy compared to what i have done to the car of the last 8 or so yrs . will read the book and also take what the posts on here have suggested, but i really want it to have the lambar sensors pluged in so i know where i am wrong . ie too rich - to lean etc.
these carbs where being use on a big block chevy ( i thought it was a 350 but wasnt ) so it would work for my cid engine anyway. each engine is always different, regardless if they are exactly the same .
am not too worried about the kb pistons , i chose them for my own reasons, i had a set of trw forged pistons and choosed against them. am happy with the set up and dont feel it will be weak. i understand the problem with this type of piston ( not a standard cast though being hyperutectic ) but any detonation in any engine isnt good regardles off what your running.
will get a pulley to give me up to 7 psi to begin with.
cheers cobalt
U r right detonation is not good in any engine seen a many kb pistons in pieces and alot of other brands but with forced induction thats like beating on a piston with a hammer I would.love.hear ur reason why kb hyper were better than forged if u all ready had them the only reason ive ever heard of someone wanting go with any cast piston hyper or not was they didnt want spend the extra money ive seen it to many times in engines the hyper wont last with much boost not for long
the main thing ( reason for the post ) is to work out what problems i am having @ my carbs, do you have any advise for that ? and also in ignition ?
fyi -idontdrivericeieatit-
interesting read on Hypereutectic -vs- Forged Pistons
Hypereutectic pistons are used in some original equipment engines. They are favored because of reduced scuffing, improved power, fuel economy and emissions.
Hypereutectic 390 refers to a unique aluminum piston alloy that contains dissolved and free silicon. The material can be T6 heat treated to high strength and stiffness. Non-heat treated 390 hypereutectic alloy aluminum has slightly less strength than conventionally cast F-132 aluminum.
With this in mind, we caution the reader about the use of non-T6 heat treated O.E. design hypereutectic pistons for high performance. Silvolite and others do make replacement-type hypereutectic pistons that are worthwhile for stock replacement applications. Original equipment design is almost never suitable for performance applications.
The KB line of hypereutectic pistons were designed around the 390 alloy. The result is a high performance part intended to give the performance engine builder access to the latest in piston technology.
Forgings have long been the mainstay of the performance business and did well in the big cubic inch engines of the 60's. Now, with focus on peak cylinder pressure timing, ring sealing dynamics, cylinder air tumble and swirl, combustion chamber science, and extended RPM ranges, we need to consider some new piston options.
The KB T6 hypereutectics are considerably different than the forgings. The KB pistons have shown improvement in power, fuel economy, cylinder sealing, service life, and cost effectiveness. The reduced thermal expansion rate allows the piston to be run with reduced clearance. A tight piston is less likely to rock, make noise, and burn oil. A rocking piston wears rings and increases blow-bye. The close fit of the KB piston allows the piston rings to truly seal, minimizing blow-by.
The design flexibility enjoyed by the KB series of pistons has an advantage over present day forging practices. The die for a forged piston must be designed so it can be easily removed. This limitation makes it difficult to make a light weight piston without sacrificing strength.
The KB pistons' utilization of the permanent mold with multiple die parts allows undercut areas above the pin hole and material distribution in the skirt area that stiffen the entire piston unit. The forged piston requires thick skirts to achieve comparable piston rigidity. A rigid piston rocks less in the cylinder and improves ring seal.
The forged pistons' thick skirts add weight. The design of KB pistons gives us the option to build the lightest pistons on the market.
Some current KB pistons are not super light for several reasons. If the piston is to be used as a stock replacement, more than a 10% weight reduction will mandate that the engine be re-balanced.
Common sense suggests that the introduction of a new product be extra strong at the initial release. As the product becomes accepted, weight reductions are scheduled as regular product upgrades, as justified with actual race testing.
There will always be a market for custom forged pistons. Small runs of forgings are more economical than small runs of permanent mold pistons because of the complexity of permanent mold tooling. Where quantities justify, expect to see future KB pistons developed that are lighter and stronger than anything else on the market. Machined head profiles are easily changed with our CNC equipment so we will stay current with new cylinder head developments. Volume production is expected to keep the price reasonable.
Our pricing policy has given the impression to some that we are building an economy, or in between, piston. The truth is, we are striving to build the "State of the Art" piston that is best, regardless of price. Reasonable pricing is just an added benefit.
- if the instaltion instruction are followed exactly these pistons i feel are very good. ( i am not comparing them to forged ones - i dont want forged ones ) but if people are suffering from kb hyperutectic pistons cracking braking rings and shattering then clearly there is another problem with either the instalation and or the tuning of the engine. maybe detonation maybe timing. who knows. but it is always difficult to listen to people saying they brake they arent any good but clearly they work and clearly kb wouldnt invest millions in creating this, etc if there principal idea was floored. its not . it depends on what you want from your piston and how you intend to drive. i made the decision not for a money saving ( it was only a £100 odd quid ) i didnt want to put some old age old trusted piston that hadent had any new tooling or desing in it since the dinorsaur age when there was fantasastic new designed material that wanst like stone and actually absorbed slight problems and can give a bit. which on a blown engine is a good idea and especially where i live as from day to day the humidity and temperature change withinn 24 hrs.
i also have a brand new electric power steering pump instead of a clunky old one and a brilliant ecu that can have anything changed to it, thats what i like to use. new types of techynologies . good luck to forged
Never said kb hyper are bad they are not but where the problem with them are they are harder let me repeat that kb hyper are harder than forged piston thats where problems with detonation comes in a forged piston will bend and warp if it gets to bad a hyper will not it will shatter in a million pieces if u dont have any detonation yes u should be. Ok but with the carbs like they are what I saying is wouldnt run it at all if the carbs are not right. U will have problem and I dont know anybody running 800 hp with hyper piston its not the installation with pistons thats the problem u got it right its running and detonation that is the problem it dont take much for somebody get little off hit detonation and have problem some are not smart enough not to drive it not saying that you im not just saying a forged is way more forgiving that any hyper if u have a problem
As far as carbs go I would either take them to somebody that knows what they doing and have been doing it for years or buy tge right carbs for the job or save money to. Buy the fuel injection you really want no advice on ignition im one them dinosaur that dont like or want fifty million sensor or computers on my car I got gas I got spark and im drivin mine quits I dont need computers to fix it I can fix in matter of min because there can on be a couple things wrong thats how I like it mines never been down for days.OR weeks chasing a problem

mustang 671 (10-18-2012)
do the 4150 carbs normally have a tube going from the base of the carb to the inlet manifold ? i am sure i read some where that it needs to have a vacum tube ?
i know some will need to be pugged as i dont need a take off for the dizzy for example .
I have holley 850 dp mine has two vac lines one on front left of carb for dizzy u wont need and one in center back of carb to intake

I usually use this over a leave in, usually CEHT.
I use alot of it, like 4 quarter to half dollar sized dollops. I smooth some over my hair with my head flipped upside down and then I scrunch the last couple dollops in.
I do get pretty good results with it but I have a hard time getting 2nd day hair with it. Similar to Angell in that regard for me. I hate it when I can't get good 2nd day hair!
2b/3a, primarily use Jessicurl and DevaCurl products, Curls Hair Tea conditioner and various gels. I'm modified CG-ish since 5/04.

World War II-era Shell Casing Found in Gainesville Backyard
Published April 29th, 2014
Loading Video...
GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- What started out as a typical day in the garden could have turned out to be explosive for one North Central Florida resident over the weekend.
Sarah Wildmon of east Gainesville was digging in her backyard on Saturday when she says she unearthed what initially appeared to be part of an old brass pipe.
Upon closer look, she realized it was something much more.
After doing some research, Wildmon discovered the "pipe" is actually a shell casing from a World War II-era anti-aircraft round dating back to 1944.
"It just kind of came up with the loose dirt around the back of my window," said Wildmon, who says she plans to be a little more vigilant the next time she gardens.
"I'll definitely be more aware of what I'm digging through. And I think I'll be disappointed if I don't find anything else out there," she said.
Wildmon says many of the frame homes in her neighborhood were moved to their current location via rail car from Camp Blanding -- possibly one indication as to how that round ended up there.
A member of the Alachua County Historical Commission says the round may be leftover from training runs made by planes back when the Gainesville Regional Airport was an airfield for the army.
Either way, Wildmon says she plans to hold onto the relic for a long time to come.

Teens' Racist Rant Goes Viral
You could call it a case of "viral venom."
Offensive videos posted by two Gainesville High School students have gone viral on the worldwide web, and are generating a lot of talk in the hallways of GHS.
It's not just high school students who are talking about this video, which on one website, generated more than 100,000 views on Wednesday alone.
It's 14-minutes of hate- a racist rant by two minors.
This is the second of two videos produced by the duo.
The girls are responding to "hate mail" generated by their first racist rant video.
The girls show no remorse for those they offend, and laugh at the viewer comments.
The original post may have been removed from YouTube, but several websites have reposted the second video in it's entirety.
In a clip from that video, one of the girls says, "we're clear, you can understand what we are saying, our accents-we use actual words, black people, do not"
School Board Spokesperson Jackie Johnson says they are aware of the video made by the two GHS students, but by the end of the school day on Wednesday, no disciplinary action had been taken against the girls.

56' Chevy Rear Bumper Question
Hey- I'm new here and am a novice in the world of hot rods as well. I need a rear bumper for a 56' Chevy Bel Air 2-door to replace the original. I want to get the license plate off the trunk and onto the bumper. I have been told that the Chevy station wagon bumper 1955-1957 has a recessed license plate and it will work. I am having a terrible time finding one anywhere. Is there another bumper that anyone knows of that could work without major modification? It doesn't have to be a Chevy part. I'd really appreciate any information. Thanks.
As far as I can remember, the 56 wagon/nomad bumper is the only one which will fit without modification. Danchuck only lists the 55 nomad bumper. I am not sure if it would fit and look right. If your metal working skills are good, you could recess the plate similar to the way the wagon bumper does and have it re-chromed. Problem is, the SW bumper guards with the light provision aren't available either.
Thanks for the response. I actually just found and bought a 56' wagon bumper- finally!

text: NEW YORK, March 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- iStar Financial Inc. (NYSE: SFI) announced today that it has entered into a new $880 million senior secured credit agreement providing for two tranches of term loans: a $410 million 2012 A-1 tranche due March 19, 2016, which bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 4.00%, and a $470 million 2012 A-2 tranche due March 19, 2017, which bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 5.75%. The 2012 A-1 and A-2 tranches were issued at 98.0% of par and 98.5% of par, respectively, and both tranches include a LIBOR floor of 1.25%. Outstanding borrowings under the new financing will be collateralized by a first lien on a fixed pool of approximately $1.10 billion of assets. Proceeds from principal repayments and sales of collateral will be applied to amortize outstanding borrowings. Cumulative amortization payments of $41 million must be made on the 2012 A-1 tranche every six months beginning December 31, 2012. After the 2012 A-1 tranche is repaid, proceeds from principal repayments and sales of collateral will be directed to amortize the 2012 A-2 tranche . The new credit agreement contains covenants relating to the collateral, including a covenant to maintain collateral coverage of not less than 1.25x outstanding borrowings, and covenants relating to the provision of information, restricted payments and other customary matters; however, the facilities contain no corporate level financial covenants such as minimum net worth, fixed charge coverage or minimum unencumbered assets covenants. Proceeds from the new financing will be used to refinance the Company's unsecured debt maturing in 2012. Barclays Capital and Bank of America Merrill Lynch acted as joint lead arrangers and together with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC as joint bookrunners for the new financing.


text: I got a notice last week about the transmission recall so I called the dealership to schedule an appointment for today. I dropped the car off first thing this morning and they gave me an ATX to drive for the day. Nice car but a little noisy for my taste. Lots of engine noise. Anyway, they indicated they had the update for the transmission to do plus the CUE update and one other update to do while they had the car (I believe it was the update for the seat memory but can't remember for sure). They indicated that the CUE update alone takes 4-5 hours. Wow! That seems like a long time for a software update. Any tips on what I can expect from the CUE update?
