Injection is Nice but I'd Rather be Blown!!!

Yeah, turbos are cool as are centrifugal and vane type.
But for me the roots type like the GMCs is the way to go.
It's as much the stimulation from the sound and vibration as the low end boost.

I miss hearing the four barrel open up, with that slightest hesitation, the sound of the increase in airflow, and that little puff of fuel smoke out the pipe...

I know what you mean, fuel injection is more efficient, less waste, better mileage, yada yada yada, but it doesn't have the song in the ear. Still sucking the same amount of air but it sounded better through the venturis.

I believe this was on rte 66 and I'm sure they could see it for miles.
Maybe even the lizard pedophiles in DC could see it.

re Volvo
specifically *that* Volvo.
Precise schmise.... who need precise, they'll move or be moved.
Amirite?

Is someone walking ahead of it and folding in car mirrors?

I know we probably talked about this before, but can you imagine being a contractor on this subdivision-- installing identical electrical, plumbing, and HVAC into 587 little castles that any normal person immediately realizes nobody is ever going to buy?

I've seen that picture before. It's in China
I believe.

there's a link in my post, it's somewhere in the middle east.
but the article didn't mention that THEY'RE ALL EXACTLY THE SAME, AND RIGHT FCKING NEXT TO EACH OTHER

[actually read the article]
It's in Turkey, and they abandoned the construction before a single house was actually in a livable state (my guess is no running water, since there are power lines in the pictures, but the contractors' tools would need that, so possibly the houses aren't actually hooked up to the lines.)

They're in Turkey.

on construction sites they set up a temporary power pole wired to the infrastructure and you run 100ft extension cords into the house
Offline
The house would be wired before any interior walls are done.
If the site is abandoned the electric supplier probably shut it down anyway.

Hey Flint, you scoffed at the look alike houses, seems the Chinese don't care, I guess they don't worry about keeping up with the Joneses... uh, Fongs, because they're all equal..
