  1. Boltinators ain't traditional, dadgummitt! But Merry Christmas to y'all still is!
    All of you and your families have a good Christmas! Now back to the 12 bolt Christmas lights on the tree. They have twelve points and all I have is a 30 point, I mean pack. Wait, it that buck, deer, beer...............?

    You can mix 12 bolt with 6 bolt, if you use stainless. Unless your south of the Equator, than the polarity of the bolts goes counter clockwise.

    you dont wanna attract possums, they will chew right through a 12 bolt system, if you stick with the 6 bolt they cant chew through the wiring. its cause the 6 bolts carry a larger hamperage. possums hate hampers, so they stay away from the 6 bolts.
    9 bolts may attract the young ladies, but also the beavers. the 9 bolt beavers will chew right through you wallet.

    If he does go through with all the 6 bolt to 12 bolt conversions, 6 cylinder to 12 cylinder, wheel nuts, etc.....will his 6 passenger car now hold 12 passengers?
    If so, I would like more information on how to do it.
    Also, if I rub some 6 bolt grease on my 6" weenie, will it grow to 12"?
    My girlfriend wants to know.....

    they are actually numetrical bolt i think, i may be wrong, i lost count at 354 bolts. now i have to recount the bolts.
     
  11. Don't get your Roman nut sizes confused with your Your-a-Peein nut sizes.

    Like a Roman 3/4" would be classified as a III/IV" and a Your-a-Peein would be classified as a 1.905 , which is a easy to confuse with a 1.905 hector or a 1.8823 rodriguez.

    Hey, it's good to see I'm not the only one confused by this stuff. Maybe you guys can answer some questions I've been thinking to ask.

    I put a Ford 8.8 rear end in my car, does that mean I need two v8 motors now? Or do I need a V 8.8? The V stands for volts, right? So I have a fractional voltage motor?

    And my driveshaft, it just looks like a long pipe, not at all like my driver or my shaft. Did I get shafted on that?

    And I went downtown to the speed shop and told them I needed a tranny, and they sent me to this bar with a bunch of cross-dressers. I nearly got into a fight with one, he/she/it thought a hot rod was something quite different - he kept looking at my belt buckle...
     
  14. Ya gotta watch out for fine thread bolts no matter what! Since the fine threads take more turns to tighten,they can build up more inductive boltage due to static. Therefore a fine thread 6 bolt system can actually produce 10 bolts! Also remember to purchase an adaptor before traveling in europe,their systems are different.
     
  15. not possible, too much boltage required. i hear some one is working on combination to make it smell like that aerosol spray they show on t.v. so that the lovely young ladies are naked already when they show up. bonus!

    As usual, you guys are ignoring the O.P.'s question:
    I'm surprised that no one has stated the obvious answer which is- this is why the torque convertor was invented, to convert the 12 bolts from one end to 6 bolts at the other.:D
     
  18. I picked a hell of a day to sober up.
     
  19. I've got a 6 pack and a box of nuts'n bolts,will that help?
     
  20. Pack level is way to low to allow good thinking. You must adjust to allow fpr a higher level of boltage!

    Looks like I picked a bad day to quit sniffin' glue.

    But seriously, converting 6 bolts to 12? Doncha know, "ya can't get there from here".

    Tear it all out and start over. Really. Tear it all out, sit between the frame rails and scream "banana boat quickies make me squishy".

    Merry Christmas :)

    I cant believe you guys have forgot to change to 12 bolt you also have to change the from NEG bolarity to POS bolarity
     
  30. remember when running the 6 bolt stolenoid from a 12 bolt circuit you need to double the current by way of a light transfer quadrupler. darth vader may have some NOS, hook him up via deathstar.fuckimpissed
