I think it's gotten a &quot;little commercialized&quot; since I first started watching when I got out of the service in 94. Found it by accident. Use to be funny as heck! The black and white film with Bob (prior to sound effects) and the visits to the fire tower were the BEST! You know I think PBS would make tones of money if they added outdoor programming throughout the week from other viewing areas. Fortunately we get Outdoor Wisconsin. You guys would LOVE Michigan Outdoors, Michigan Magazine and Fred Trost's Practicle Sportsman. When I was in Virginia for surgery, I saw some great shows from around Chesapeake Bay that I would love to watch. Heck I'd never leave the T.V. and get anything done. Heck I'd be in a dream world and not nead anything done. Heck, I'd save a lot of money. Heck, I might call Direct TV tonight. <br><br>Can you say &quot;TANGENT!&quot;<br>See ya guys!<br>Don

(injectors, turned up pump) It shrunk to the point that the manifold slots were hard up against the bolts and the bolts were bent. Also, the gaskets were working their way out on #1 and #2. Had a good look at it one day.......then called up Massdiesel and ordered an ATS manifold. ;D<br><br>Sean

Re:EGT Survey help....

Well, since I'm not ripped with cash, and I've seen some &quot;heat signs&quot; too, I took an old (stock) manifold and in I went....
I bet the darn thing is a full pound lighter now.....
I opened up all the ports to match the gasket, including the outlets...filings and dust soot all over the place.. in fact it looked like a jetpilot run on a dyno... can you say night time...
Then, you guessed it.... I dove into the exhaust housing (my 16cm) and showed no mercy....

We'll see if that helps once it's all changed over...
