    Can someone explain degreeing cams

    I've watched a few YouTube videos and I'm still slightly confused. Some of the terminology used it out of my league. What are the benefits VS negatives? I see great gains from doing it, why doesn't everyone do it??? Is it that difficult to do? Thanks gents

    Any very small business owners?? Advice/guidance please!!

    So, I'm moving to an area that needs something, and the whole town drives 5-10 miles to get it done. It's not a big thing, but I think it can make a killing.

    Super newb question, torque converters

    Can someone explain them to me? What do the terms mean? Flashing, locking up, stall, I kinda understand that stuff but how and why is what kind of confuses me. When someone says, "my stall is 2500" but it "flashes" to 3500 what's that about? How can it be different? Thanks for the insight

    Looking for a good dog and visited my brother...

    He has a Vizsla that is down right impressive. Anyone have experience with these dogs? He really doesn't train her much, she's just down right smart. Thoughts? http://youtu.be/aERWKKBOluQ http://youtu.be/saBASlohBdU
