Tell ya what here do you have skypes??? If Then why don't we get together on that. And i will show you just what happens when you get the wrong gas in one and i don't care if you run a 460 it can happen to them as well . I fought the same thing on a friends 460 that was bought new on the farm in 57 and it has had the head off it so many time for burnt valves over the years and each time that head was milled because of warpage. So the stock compression ratio is long gone out the window . It would not even pull a half loaded manure spreader back up the hill with out tiren to seize up . And you ignore when i try and tell you that reg gas was 95 Research when they were built . The 93 is the min. on a stock engine with forged pistons . NOW we have cast pistons cast will not take the heat and dissipate it like a forged will down to the skirt and to the walls .If and when we can get together i will make a point of getting the lab report and read it to you . Yes we have hills over here and some of them will put a pucker factor in your shorts . I have shelled corn on a couple side hills that you could only shell one way and that was with the cab door on the up hill side and only with a half full bin and you drove it half in the cab and half standing outside the cab so IF she started to go over you had a small chance to jump for it. Or had a 4 row corn planted shove you side ways while turning on the head land . It gets steeper south of me .

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro ... [Read Article]
