Thread: Santa came early and...

...he was dressed in brown.

Finally got the new custom manifold and it's going to fit like a charm!

UPS & Left Hand Turns

It seems that sitting in the left lane, engine idling, waiting for oncoming traffic to clear so you can make a left-hand turn, is minutely wasteful — of time and peace of mind, for sure, but also of gas and therefore money. Not a ton of gas and money if we’re talking about just you and your Windstar, say, but immensely wasteful if we’re talking about more than 95,000 big square brown trucks delivering packages every day. And this realization — that when you operate a gigantic fleet of vehicles, tiny improvements in the efficiency of each one will translate to huge savings overall — is what led U.P.S. to limit further the number of left-hand turns its drivers make.
The company employs what it calls a “package flow” software program, which among other hyperefficient practices involving the packing and sorting of its cargo, maps out routes for every one of its drivers, drastically reducing the number of left-hand turns they make (taking into consideration, of course, those instances where not to make the left-hand turn would result in a ridiculously circuitous route).

Last year, according to Heather Robinson, a U.P.S. spokeswoman, the software helped the company shave 28.5 million miles off its delivery routes, which has resulted in savings of roughly three million gallons of gas and has reduced CO2 emissions by 31,000 metric tons. So what can Brown do for you? We can’t speak to how good or bad they are in the parcel-delivery world, but they won’t be clogging up the left-hand lane while they do their business.

Thats a pretty bad ass picture of that stang!

I grew up around crate motors and I'm a HUGE small block fan myself. I've helped construct some wicked ass motors as well as help de-construct a few(I rather build than tear down). When I got into the whole Euro scene(VW, BMW, Audi, Porsche) I really had no idea how durable these motors were. I've blown enough motors to know what durable consists of. Kornfed is fun, but KRAUTFED is the shizz. 8)
