Junkman2008 Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Remember the El Camino hood I fixed in my videos? Well sit down, shut up and hang on! The Mean O' Camino is terrorizing an Import near you!

Superdutytd Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 The Camino really have that big of a cooling system? I know with diesels we have to do that but with my Mustang even in cold weather it will jump right up to operating temperature. Cool vid btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunky Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 It is hard to tell the speed you were going. I guess you signaled with all the lane changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Baize Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I am very familiar with that route, not bad time and you stopped to remove your "heater". It would be impossible to do that at 5pm me thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know with diesels we have to do that but with my Mustang even in cold weather it will jump right up to operating temperature. Cool vid btw No. I have a direct drive fan on the engine that won't allow it to heat up in the winter, and causes it to overheat in the summer if I don't keep moving. I'm going to change it over to an electric fan system sometime this week. It is hard to tell the speed you were going. I guess you signaled with all the lane changes. Of course! After all, I got my driving habits from my years as a cop in L.A.! I thought I heard that engine knocking at the end. lol That's called "engine lope" my friend! That is the sign of a big ol' cam in the engine. The first time I heard it, I thought the car needed a tune up real bad because the idle was so rough. However, the only cars that I had owned up until then were land sharks... Cadillac's and Buick's. They don't idle anything like the Mean O' Camino!

Marylander Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Seems you were in a bit of a hurry there. Booty at the other end of that drive? PS -- when you're REALLY in a hurry, take the Vette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you do the on screen texting while driving? Dude, there is no one one the planet that text as slow as I do. It took me 10 minutes to answer a booty call with the reply, "Yes." Don't text me and expect an answer on the same day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
