    Oh I got a good one that I don't know the answer to. What was the last year that Mopar used left handed lugnuts?

    I'm gonna take a guess and say 72 but I don't really know.
     
  13. What year did Ford introduce the overhead valve engine?

    1952.
    The "I" head six.

    ~~

    Name two additional names for a roadster - or coupe - rumble seat.

    Dicky Bird Seat and Mother-in-Law seat.

    ~~

    What is another name for TeaPot carbs?

    Towering Inferno.

    ~~

    Which hood ornament was taller, 49 Ford or 50 Ford.

    The 49.

    What common engine swap of the 50's required a starter changeover housing?
    Olds Rocket into Shoebox Ford.

    ~~

    What would you expect to read if you stuck a vacuum gauge onto a manifold vacuum bib at idle.
    Full manifold vacuum - IE: 17-19" of mercury for a mildly cammed engine.

    What would you expect to see if you plugged the same gauge into ported vacuum at idle?
    Zero inches of mercury.

    ~~

    True or False.
    If you put an additional carburetor on an engine that's identical to the first - ending up with two carburetors - you'll use twice as much gasoline at full throttle.

    False.

    A carburetor is a pressure differential device and not a fuel dumping gadget.
    Each carb will only pull about half the air that the single one did so there's no way you can draw in twice as much gasoline at full throttle.

    ~~

    True or False.

    If you double the speed of the car it takes twice as far to stop.

    False.

    It takes four times the distance.

    ~~

    What happens if you're spinning down the freeway at 65 per in a 57 Dodge hardtop and there are three cheerleaders in the back seat tearing up paper for confetti at the after game celebration and you decide to play freeze-out and open all the windows?

    The confetti explodes into the interior of the car, one of the cheerleaders beats the shit out of you with the empty box, truckers and other vehicles dang near run off the road when the short skirts the girls are wearing flutter up while they're busy trying to crawl over the seat so they can kick your ass....
