since 35 year??

you started with a typewriter ?

first personnal computer was around 1980, timex sinclair if i remember well ... and its been only 23 years...


How about a picture?

High caps is kind of annoying, you should change..everybody change over time... only George Bush stay the same , hes like a typewriter too! not even close as the 8 bit Timex Sinclair with 8kb memory!

Actually, no one on this forum "decided " that all caps is yelling. Its world wide computer etiquette....do a search and ask....please. Besides that...its difficult to read. By the way...the human brain does not read letter shapes. It reads the negative spaces around them. Hence the reason you can differentiate a lower case "q" from a" p ". There are quite a few hundred type faces designed to read properly in all caps...but this is not one of them. And yes...I am a typographic designer.

After this subject came up months ago ragarding your all caps posts, I noticed that the replys and perusals to what posts you have are very low. A lot of people will ignore you due to the annoyance. Thats sad, because I think you have things worth reading. I have a pretty open mind...but yes...it is annoying. Just thought you might like to know. Ray

Rimspoke,
Just one thing I can't figure out. How do you get the air from the box you built on the oil cooler exhaust to the inlet of the heat exchangers? Could you please expalin that in a little more detail for me.

[rimspoke]

THIS WORKS WITH A DUAL PORT TYPE 1 MOTOR .
ON THE DOGHOUSE OFFSET OIL COOLER THERE IS A REMOVABLE
PIECE OF SHEETMETAL WHERE THE HOT AIR COMES OUT OF THE OIL COOLER . ( THE TRIANGLE SHAPED ONE )
I REMOVED THIS PART AND CUT A LARGE SQUARE HOLE IN IT .
I WELDED A BOX THAT STICKS UP NEXT TO THE FAN SHROUD .
THE BOX HAS TWO TUBES WELDED ON FOR STOCK SIZE HEATER TUBES .
ONE COMES OVER THE LEFT CORNER OF THE SHROUD .
THE OTHER GOES TO THE RIGHT AND HOOS OVER THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE SHROUD .
THEY BOTH PASS THROUGH INLINE BOOSTER FANS BEFORE THEY
GO INTO THE HEAT EXCHANGERS IN THE STOCK LOCATION .
THE ORIGONAL HEATER OUTLETS ON THE SHROUD ARE NOT USED .
I ORIGONALLY HAD FANS WITH PLASTIC HOUSINGS BUT ONE OF
THEM MELTED FROM THE OIL COOLER HEAT ! I AM NOW USING A MODIFIED LATE BUS DUAL OUTLET FAN BUT I PLAN TO SWITCH TO
914 SINGLES FOR EVEN MORE AIR & A LESS CLUTTERED LOOK .
THEY WILL BE HUNG FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT CEILING .
I HOPE THAT THIS HELPS , IF YOU WANT I CAN E-MAIL YOU PICTURES .

Rimspoke,

All caps isn't yelling, the letters don't come out your speakers, yelling is sound, THIS IS JUST TYPING. They're a lot easier to read though.

[Lavabo]

oh man you revived a post 7 year old!!

[74West]

Ta Da !

Would like to know if this guy's idea actually worked at all. I suspect as Ray posted that it is mostly the electric fan that is adding to the heat output. Have a fairly large 11 amp 12v fan that I am thinking up using for this purpose on my Thing. I am going to try it both ways, with just the cooling fan supplying air flow and with a the electric providing the flow.
