    Don't have any of those (1457,1460,1657) I do have untouched: 1467, 1450, 2160 and a 2.0 I can post pics if you're interested. I also have an ABC 75X97, ABC 62X100 and a Prather 245 stock. They have been cleaned up and balanced, but have been in the prop box for a while so would need...

    Recycling a 50 Year Old DragN' Fli 40

    The DragonFly 40 was my first boat back in 1977, great boat. I still have it and have managed to keep it in pretty good shape. It is all original hardware, and paint (except the servos and radio) has the original motor that still runs. In the beginning we ran a 1250 (fiberglass/plastic)...

    From the New York Post....

    I thought Rupert liked DJT... Donald Trump’s ‘major announcement’ is a cringey line of $99 NFTs — of himself Don’t give any money to con artist Trump And yes, they did sell out.

    Lifter Failures GM/Chevy 5.3L V-8 with AFM/DFM

    I'm not so sure any of them are safe bets anymore. I have been researching the various trucks, and you're right, Toyota probably is the best bet. But what concerns me is the recent redesign of the Toyotas. As far as I can tell you can't get a V-8 anymore. They have gone to an iForce V-6 twin...

    Thanks Dave, That's good advice. But unfortunately, the horse is out of the barn.

    Lifter Failures GM/Chevy 5.3L V-8 with AFM/DFM

    That was good that you were able to get the dealer to cover the repairs. I was lucky that the cam in mine was still ok. If it had been wiped out I may have gone with the AFM delete kit. No sense rebuilding/repairing things and having it fail due to the same issues . I agree that it is most...

    Lifter Failures GM/Chevy 5.3L V-8 with AFM/DFM

    Thanks Dave, I had heard a little bit about a lawsuit. I will be investigating it for sure. I forgot to mention that there are aftermarket "kits" to totally delete the AFM. Involves new cam, lifters etc. It would be like open heart surgery. But if you have the engine apart, and need to...

    That's awesome your Tahoe is been a good vehicle for you. Once in a while you get a really good one. I had a 2002 Silverado 1500, No AFM/DFM great truck. On my 2015, I was impressed with how the gas mileage was with the AFM. Seemed to work great. On a long highway trip, would get 22+mpg...

    Lifter Failures GM/Chevy 5.3L V-8 with AFM/DFM

    That would work as well. The AFM disabler plugs into the OBD port. It does not reprogram the ECU. From what I read you can install it in a vehicle while it's under warranty. It can be removed and the vehicle goes back to "normal mode" and shouldn't impact any warranty work. The dealer...

    Wasn't it the high voltage transmission lines that were doing them in? the good old V-8-6-4.

    A lot of the new GM trucks do not have the DFM (an updated version of AFM). Just have to look for a credit for the DFM on the window sticker.
