I will be back later with a video just tinkering in the garage....

I converted a 2006 model year drive by wire throttle body to cable actuated so I can use a cheap EFI system. ( because that's the way I roll....lol )

Gonna try a 5.0 Coyote t.b. next off a F150

Got bored awhile back and was curious if a 460 Big Block Ford would fit under the stock hood of a 2005 Mustang and still be able to run a blow thru carb with a turbo.

Seems the answer is yes....

Went to our local Wal Mart at 6 am. The 6-7 hour is for seniors only. Went straight to the TP rack, along the back wall of the store. Nothing but bare shelves. Not one single roll of TP or paper towels. But, they did have plenty of rolls of blue shop towels.

Hey, they'd be a lot better than the Sears & Roebuck catalog pages, that were in my grandparent's outhouses.

Don't have a clue when we'll be able to buy TP here. WM was also out of LOTS of other items. Not a single egg in the store. No cans of chili. Very few common canned veggies & soup. Almost no chicken. No frozen pizza, in the popular brands/varieties. No loose russet potatoes. No pancake syrup. Very little milk left. And I could name many other items. Lowest stock I've ever seen in WM.

At 7:30, our little town was a strange scene. Gas at WM & the Circle K, at our biggest intersection, was only $1.79. But, there was not one vehicle at either place, at any gas pump.

At that time, the McDonald's & BK drive-thru would normally be packed. Today, there was not one single vehicle in either drive-thru.

Schools are closed, along with most everything else. The only normal traffic I saw were the wood chip trucks. So, I suppose it's business as usual, for our local paper mill & wood haulers.

I was the 1st person in the door at my local WalMart this morning at 6:00 AM (over 60 only) and there were about 10 packs of TP, limit one. Rest of the store was much better stocked than over the weekend. I was out by 6:30.

I watched a Lucas Oil race on DragRacer.TV and heard that John Calvert had told Alan Reinhart to slam his battery back against the tail light housing of his Mustang for better bite. "You can move the battery. Why move it a little" Or words to that effect...(Ran to "shop" and slammed both batteries back to tail light housings). While I was at it I replaced my worn out rotary with an old push-pull Flaming River unit. I converted it to rotary with scrap parts around the "shop". I hope tech understands it...
