pflaming Posted April 5, 2018 Report Share Posted April 5, 2018 YES! And rightly so. Cars are not political, they are neutral physical objects. Maybe this entire thread should be deleted. I would encourage the administration to do so! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd B Posted April 5, 2018 Report Share Posted April 5, 2018 Irony would be deleting this post because of the actions of a few percent of the followers. Wouldn’t that be political???? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there was ever an engine that needed an aluminum intake,it was a FE Ford. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never had the pleasure of working on a Cobra Jet but I've worked on a few other FE motors and those intakes are a chunk... I'd probably end up using a hoist if I had to remove one today.. Hopefully I'll never be forced into that situation... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all,politics dominate all our lives in practically every area you can think of. Yes, politics are banned. I guess my warning earlier in the thread was not taken to heart by everyone. I've now deleted the posts that led to the warning and will be ready with the delete key for any new political postings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my last post on this subject,but anybody that thinks politics doesn't have anything to do with old cars has his head stuck in a hole in the ground.

pflaming Posted April 5, 2018 Report Share Posted April 5, 2018 Knuck, what you say is true, yet the two topics that can very quickly divide a family or social group are religion and politics! The originators of this forum wisely recognized that when they formatted this forum. I was banned early on due to what I thought was a very innocent joke, I quickly accepted that and proceeded after my suspension without any animosity. We have so so much to share, discuss, and build that the exclusion of those are in no way negative omissions. JMHO paul Flaming, aka pflaming. Best to all!

FlashBuddy Posted April 21, 2018 Report Share Posted April 21, 2018 Playing hockey I scored a Gordy Howe hat trick, sat in the box, got the call in the shootout; in fact enjoyed every aspect of the game. Yet in this forum, which too I love, I've never been suspended! Looks like I have room for improvement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
