A great demo why the 703/784 swap is a good idea.

Wake up ya salty sea dogs.. it be your daily pirate joke time, yar!

A pirate and his parrot, were adrift in a lifeboat following a dramatic escape from a valiant battle.* While rummaging through the boat's provisions, the pirate stumbled across an old lamp. Secretly hoping that a Genie would appear, he rubbed the lamp vigorously. To the amazement of the castaways, a Genie came forth.* This particular Genie, however, stated that he could only deliver one wish, not the standard three.* Without giving any thought to the matter the pirate blurted out, "Make the entire ocean into rum!"** The Genie clapped his hands with a deafening crash, and immediately the entire sea turned into the finest rum ever sampled by mortals.* Simultaneously, the Genie vanished. Only the gentle lapping of rum on the hull broke the stillness as the two considered their circumstances. The parrot looked disgustedly at the pirate and after a tension-filled moment spoke: "Now yee've done it!!* Now we're goon to have to pee in the boat."

A 62 can add 7-12hp...and is more costly.

morning!

Im hoping to swap in the C8.25 this weekend. I got the new yoke but its a little different than the one currently installed. The vendor is sure it fits and works. Also got the drums off with your help. loosened the adjusters and they came right off. everything is painted up and looking good.

Anyone know where to get u-bolts locally?

He will be the first recipient of a throttle body bored by me.

I have to pick up one tool tomorrow, then I should have the first one done and back to Frosty. If successful, I hope to be able to offer this service to the rest of you.

Thanks Mike!
Anytime buddy!

is there such thing of a muffler that doesn't really quiet the exhuast at all? like running without one at all, but reducing the drone at higher RPMs? and maybe putting a little tone on it as well? of course with that it wouldn't be as loud without a muffler, but I wouldn't mind running the exhuast out the side for shorter piping
If you want noise but not all the time, put in a dump. Flip a switch and your open header.... Summit and Jegs have them

Its only hurting your MPG if its around your O2 sensors which would make them throw a code. But we drive Jeeps we dont care about MPG or we would not have bought one....
