Yup, pinion angle. :-{}

 

[Sled Puller]

Yes, I expect his NEW angle is not much better!!LOL

Due to the fact that these guys are doing R & D in a bar parking I think the problem was not so much pinion angle as it was bottle angle. It apears when one puts to much brown bottle angle for to long of a time ---magical things happen. The bottle throttle produces much more power couseing parts breakage and damage.

Yeah I had a printed version of that story laying around and low and behold a friend of mine who has worked on numerous mid 80's nissans and toyota's said that it was definitely driveline angles.



Also, to ad to that he said if the owner would have had a centerforce clutch there would not have been an issue.

Why, Dave, whatever do you mean? I'm sure most of the R&D that has ever been done, was executed in a bar parking lot! I know a lot of mine was. It was usually preceded with the statement, "The hell I won't!"



He may have been right on that CF clutch, Justin. I don't believe they have quite enough "base" in them.



ROTFLMAO!

I'm sure most of the R&D that has ever been done, was executed in a bar parking lot!

Usually preceeded by lots of engineering diagrams being drawn up on the napkins, while downing a few cold ones and saying, "I don't see why this won't work. " Been there... :-laf :-laf :-laf

well... they did atleast admit it was in-part caused by "alcohol injection"





"Here. . watch my beer. . and then watch me. . errr. . yeah... "

The problem is --------when you napkin engineer most of the time the wing sauce smudges alot of the important detailes leading to even more bottle angle.
