Hey Grinner, you going to be able to get to the hose clamps? I am assuming there will be some clamping the hoses on the I/C.

Good idea Mike, I'll update that right away.

No worries Jeff, got that covered. Judging from the marks left by the original sleeves I'll have plenty of clamping space.

I am sad to hear that, but I know the feeling of losing interest in a project.
Hopefully you haven't lost interest in your art work. So have you made anything lately? If so please post a photo

I wouldn't say I've lost interest...just temporarily distracted by other addictions. I now have 10 old Fords but truly only want to keep the crew.

Old locker and trashed fenders into dump bin for my store.







Caribou skull repair.



This went into the local rib joint to hold their wine.



These will be in front of the new county animal shelter.





My number one addiction. Made the bench with swivel seat. My son is a lefty.




Picking on the p dog at 1000 yards. The wind is not your friend in this game.

So it is good to see that you have been busy with your other hobbies. I really do enjoy your handy work ! You do some beautiful work !
1000 yds I am going to guess a 308 or 30-06 and if you are pulling that off with a .223 then you are the man. Actually just being able to make a 1000 yd shot makes you a WAY better shot then I ever could make.

3 years ago I missed a huge bull in a driving wind at 400.
I hate the wind

That bou skull was a nightmare. Every time I thought I had it ,something else would break. It took a nasty fall. Dude didn't want to pay 225 to get it fixed.....he paid. Apparently my time isn't worth much...

Turbo, get the Trasol app if you don't have one. It's 10 bucks and works pretty well once you fiddle with your speed. You can play with wind speed to see what your windage adjustment would be. I just ran 20 mph from 3 o'clock for my Edge and it needs 1.7 mils of left wind which is about 25". 20 mph is a bunch of wind!!!!


Honestly...I spent all my truck funds on shooting stuff.

Any action these days? It' been way too long grinner...lol. I know the feeling, but I'm the opposite...i spent all my shooting funds on truck parts. My cousin just picked up a .338 lapua and we haven' tried it out yet, but I'm sure it' going to be awesome.
