There should be laws against doing that to your cat.

Some dude at work did a really advanced looking excel sheet that he printed out and put on notice boards all over that showed exactly how much overtime you could work before you started losing money... loving marginal tax, how does it work?

Taking this here instead of derailing DrPains shop thread.You Am I posted:One of dad's friends was a huge Lanz Bulldog collector. The story about the friend losing control of a Lanz on a major road in South Australia, because the engine would not stop and he became a passenger was hilarious There's a story in the family about great grandpa and how he lost his finger. This would have been in the mid-late forties, and the tractor a Bolinder-Munktell hot bulb two-stroke. A wagon full of hay was on the hitch, great grandpa driving and grandma (about 7-8 years old at the time) sitting next to him on one of the rear fenders. When going up a particularly steep hill, the engine suddenly stopped. The brakes on this particular BM wasn't the most impressive ones and as the tractor started rolling backwards, grandpa accidently let out the clutch which led to the engine bump-starting *backwards*. As they started picking up speed, going backwards downhill, grandma bailed and while doing so accidently turned the steering wheel, sending the wagon and tractor off the road, into the ditch. As the wagon went off the road, it rolled over, taking the tractor with it. Grandpa almost got out unharmed, except for the tractor landing on his middle finger, immediately severing it above the first knuckle. Grandpa borrowed a bicycle from a nearby house, cycling the 5 km to the village nurse with a severed finger.

rscott posted:Why would you go with a M60B30 over a M60B40 unless you're getting the drivetrain for free or something Has to do with Swedish rules on modified vehicles. A B40 would give a higher power:weight ratio, and also a larger increase in power over stock. If I built with a B30 in a 325, I could probably get away with just changing engine and gearbox and then do an extended re-register inspection to make it street legal, as opposed to using a B40 where I'd probably be required to change out brakes and suspension as well as bolting in ballast weights to get the power:weight ratio within acceptable limits. Lightbulb Out posted:Good idea, but I think I'd rather keep the inline 6. Simpler, same amount of power. Yeah well, the idea started out more like "V8 in E30 LOL" with a friend of mine, so...
