As you guys know I have 99,000 miles and a bad engine due to me. If all goes well in the next few days I will get a new engine. Don't ask how... I'll tell you later. My question is if I really do keep this car is it safe to bolt on a blower with 8,000 miles on the engine and 107,000 miles on the car? The only thing I'm worryied about breaking in this case is the tranny... and thats pretty major. Again new engine, old car... anything to worry about if I ever mod the car? If modding the car with this many miles is bad (even with a new engine) this will truely be a decision maker for the future of the car with me... eventhough I still wanna keep it. :burnout:

What will you break? Hopefully only your neck and not someone elses.

I think it's a fair bet you will break something else on this car. The tranny certainly is at the top of the peril list. I think we should start a pool for how many days it will be before your transmission takes a dump. Or how many times you will post about it taking it dump. Closest to the correct number wins.:D

Now why did you and your friends do that mod? I would have kept my dip stick.

I'll take some of this action .....

I say the tranny has a maximum life of 9 days behind a new engine & S/C.

57 days behind a new engine w/o a S/C.

Personally I think you should sell the car and buy a Civic. Those guys like drama :)

Naa I don't care about fuel prices. Thanks for the suggestion. All this advice is very helpful. IF you guys would read the other posts from before thats bolting a blower on an old engine. THIS IS NEW, but the car is old... I guess people assume too much before they finish reading.

Bolt the blower on the new motor and go blow something up!

Something has got to give somewhere. It's the nature of the beast.... mmmmmmmm April Wine.....

I read the other posts. One of them addressed viability of the transmission (your next weakest link if you replace the engine), and the answers given then still apply.

What else would you be worried about, axle shafts snapping?

someone needs to start a marauder rescue for neglected and abused marauders.

I normally would fire back at you with names, but I'm not down to your level... not today at least. As I said the car is fine and who are you guys to talk? You got blowers and I'm sure some of you break parts BECAUSE of the way you drive. I know a few of you have had to rebuild your engines and had major work done just to make the car function again. If all I can run is a 15.10 thats not abuse, thats stock. If your running a blower thats really beating the car. So let me get this straight... I have nothing except an air filter and I'm an abuser. Some have Blower this, gear that, header this burnout here and are not abusers? Ok makes no sense to me. If anything your cars are taking the beating and not mine. I can't believe some of you have the nerve to call me a Marauder Abuser when it's stock. If it wasn't for all the helpful advice I get on here I would quit the site, or I could just start up a new name and say I'm 45. (No offence to anyone of that age, but I know being 20 gets a lotta heat on here and everything that goes wrong with the car is based on my age) Maybe the dealer was right when they questioned me for being too young for this car... not for the car, but the people that I have to deal with when I get it. But the problem with making a new screen name is you would know it's me after about 3 posts because the only person I can be is myself. Anyone who has a problem go for it on the keyboard. Call me immature, call be a moron, say I'm too young for this car, say I'm a spoiled brat... do you think your impacting me? Take a guess. My advice to all of you is to not waste your fingertips going on about me. This site is here for the cars, not the drivers.

Being a dip***** is a state of mind and has nothing to do with age. Generally speaking, the condition is much worse in the young, and people grow out of it. I have hopes for you, since you are relatively young. 20 is a bit on the older side of juvenile dipsh!ititude, so you could be a candidate for geriatric dipsh!ittedness. Time will tell.

Actually, I don't think you are as big a douche as you make yourself out to be. A lot of this is just garden variety attention whoring in the hopes of getting people to reply to your posts. Looks like it works.

You got me all wrong. Think what you want, I'm not a dip*****. I'm not going to go on to defend myself because I have done this before. Look at my amount of posts compared to yours... whose the whore? With all reguards screw you and your attitude.

Re: Motorhead350

Dear Mr. Carlson,

Good morning, sir. I hope the day finds you well. I'm writing in response to the above quoted post. While I do consider us friends, I will have to respectfully disagree on a couple points. 1. You seem to hold out hope for this kid. Having been reading his posts and being witness to his juvenile antics on this board, I feel your hope is ill-founded and may be lost entirely. 2. You seem to think he's not as big a douche as he makes himself out to be. You are wrong. He's a Giant Douche. [Not a turd sandwich]

I do, however, believe you are right about one thing. The attention whoring. I woke up this morning, poured a cup of coffee, and headed over to MM.NET. Clicking on "New Posts" revealed no less than six active threads started by the aforementioned dip*****. I feel this alone makes your point for you.

In closing, I look forward to any response or input you may have on this subject. SSHS6 is getting closer, and I look forward to seeing the new ride, and hanging out again in the A-T-L.


Sincerely,
Tallboy

Holy Motorhead350, I thought this was a cease and desist letter from Marty there for a second.:)

I promised the counselor I would attend and run the Harley truck, even if it hasn't been blown by then. I'm sure there's something that will be there it will outrun.

You know what the funny thing is? If I call someone something I get told to knock it off. :nono: If someone calls me something people join along.:baaa: Seems like we got a lotta clones in here and no one had anything to say about my responce to abuse. Your South Park reference is lame because it shows how unoriginal you guys can be. Hope is for everyone, but not for narrow-minded jack stands as yourselves. Besides I bet my behavior is like an angle compared to how you guys were at my age. If you look at yourselves you still haven't matured. People that defend me are getting crapped on just like a fight about to break out in a school.:help: So you guys aren't douches... your worse. Your more immature then me... and being over twice me age as some of you are thats just really sad. After all it's not me that started the name calling and I'm the one being called an immaute douche... I don't normally say things, but we got some dumbassses in here. dumbassses with Marauders.... oh boy.... :shake:
