I've had my 4 post lift for about 15 years and it's never had an issue but the paint has seen better days. Years of exposure to chemicals and road salt have taken their toll. Time to strip it down and refinish it with some more durable coatings!
The before pics. Rust!
More rust and peeling...
Turbo coyote, 6 speed, AWD 2017 Mustang. It's still early in the project but he's accomplished a lot so far!

Finally tackling some shop projects this summer. First on the list was A/C! The building is well insulated but it still gets uncomfortably warm and humid to work inside during the 2 weeks of summer we get up here...lol! I picked up at 2 ton Senville mini-split because A) I have radiant heat...

Basically they're using a production V10 block from a F350 and splicing together several sets of 4.6L 4 valve heads to make it work. Pretty amazing work so far for a couple guys in their garage. Here's a link to their channel, they've posted about 5 episodes so far...

I've been seeing these reports pop up on FB and YT saying we may run out of diesel engine oil in the next 1-2 months due to shortages of additives and other materials. Anyone have any insider information on this...
I don't know how much of this is making news outside of Canada but a convoy of truckers and regular Canadians started in the west a few days ago and is on it's way to Ottawa to protest Prince Sparkle Socks' vax mandates. The convoy has reached Western Ontario and is now 480km or 300 miles long...

The action starts around the 13 minute mark.
I've put together a 2018 F150 5.0 with an On3 twin turbo kit. It has the upgraded 60mm ceramic ball bearing turbos. Anyways, within 10 miles and a couple 5k rpm pulls on the base tune the drivers side turbo bearings failed and the turbo locked up. Checked the oil feed to the turbos, no issues...
