Crazyhorse-
LMAO!
Let me get this straight-
This round thingy goes up in a tube, some flammable stuff is thrown in there, and somehow a fire is thrown in at the right time to make an explosion and drive the round thingy down- repeat over and over for power? Sounds like a lot of thrashing parts!

BTW- Stanley makes great mikes (and rulers), and some of us do like the smell of Jet-A in the morning!

You guys are unbelievable. I've read this sight for some time now and was starting to get some feeling that maybe this Bruce guy knew what he was talking about. I guess I was wrong. Any moron knows that silicon won't last on piston skirts and such. You must use #2 permatex in these situations. Just a little dab will do ya...

Jafo, I didn't know my cousin Joe Bob could weld. Or that he was selling weld instead of moonshine.

If a little silicone is good, more is better, and too much is perfect!!!!!

Silicone,,, permatex,,, silicone,,, permatex,,,. Jeez Louise, guys. Now y'all need to tell me whether the color of the sillycone makes a difference. Orange is my personal favorite but if another is going to work better I'm game.
