Since I have not been able to contact DemonSizzler, does anyone know who can rebuild and modify for performance a Carter Thermoquad? I have a TQuad that Demon Sizzler rebuilt and tuned a few years back. I never used it so it is still ready to go in the box. I'll sell it if you need one. I took it t...

ya...even more interesting....why are you trying to compare oranges to apples

Not race gas but regular fuel in Australia we have a TAX on top of a TAX on top of another TAX................i'ts all about the greed by the politicians. If there is no racing, surely the race gas price will drop.........is my thinking wrong? it sounds like the land of OZ is very similar to Canada...

. Yet you want to reinvent the wheel.. . I'm not trying to reinvent anything mt. I asked a question about MCA. Seeing as I'm trying to avoid "something that's been done before", I'll continue to ask. Yes. Good suggestions have risen up. And I check them all out. Funny in that these sugges...

ya agreed!

-in that Redline vs Tech Oil test, i was surprised how close they tested..

I think most people waste money on high dollar magic oil, growing up we ran Cooks Recycled oil, never changed a filter and never had an oil related issue even though we drove like teenagers in a Joey Chitwood stunt show, literally. I have a 93 1/2 ton truck that I bought from the original owner in ...
