Also, what happened with your buddy with the hydrogen generator? I read up on that - it shouldn't work. But you never know.

He is an over the road trucker (hotshot) I talked to him Saturday he was cleaning up his garage and was getting ready to install it. There was a guy on Moparts that home built a system and was claiming 25% better mileage.

I've been running the math on a hydrogen generator and it's not good. You'd have to break down at least 2.2 gallons of water to get the equivalent of one gallon of gas - if a system needs to be refilled once a month, how much good can it possibly be doing?

No word from Jaggers about turbo manifolds. I will try to ask Ron Parker at Wilkesboro if he has any updates/info.

Matt, you are discovering that only thermodynamics can set you free on this one - it's hogwash.

Yes, I guess you could say I'm trying to prove it's hogwash by demonstrating what happens if you try to wash a hog with it. The numbers I came up with are completely absurd, and I expected them to be - one ton battery packs, current draw so high you could easily arc weld with it, and general nightmares.

Hey Lou,

Tell Ron that we miss his posting on here a lot. I certainly liked to here about his "Bambozeler" or what ever it was. And also talking smack with Slantzilla!

Possum is here with a lot going on. We doin't stay still long and have a lot of fun doing Slanted Things. Sometimes things happen and crop up and you have to adapt.
But Matt is my main man. We got some stuff to work on like the Bagel Bamboozler might be a hydrogen bomb bamboozler. Hell Lou is a nuclear scientist. How about this idea from my friend in flordia... 200mph leaf blower tunneled right in the carb, faten up the jets a bit and wala. Hell has anybody ever tryed it. I love Sciencists. The Slanted Family. :D
Bagel's Toast. He could not beat me if his butt was straped to the space shuttel. Your Slanted friend Possum
