Show Notes

How about a high-Q blowout from Other Ryan's garage, where the ongoing parade of attempts to get a junkyard manifold to align with a junkyard 5.9 (hey, $400 with a set of equal-lengths can't be all bad) turns into a great piece of show. From tales of how the usually dependable 5.9 lump could go from power to just POW, Freiburger's motorhomes and Péwé's Jeeps, professional drivers and drifters, and tanks buried all over Europe, to Nayr Zedlav and Nutsij Trof's thoughts on getting the dissimilar surfaces in an engine to mate up.. You'll probably learn something - sorry about that.

In addition, there's the return of Pizza Port's coincidental Chronic Amber, some weird rock from "The Shining", frosty mugs, Hugh Mearns, Edgar Allen Poe and Ed Gorey.
