| |
− | Really like your article on "swapping to a rack & pinion steering" and I'm wanting to do the same on a 40 Chrysler.
| |

| |
− | Would you please list the GM vehicles and years that use the same CTO R&P unit as the Cavalier in the article?
| |
− | Are these known as the "J" cars ?
| |

Your best bet by far is to ask this question at the [http://www.hotrodders.com/ '''hotrodders.com forum'''] (it's connected to this wiki). After creating an account, you can post a question.

− | ==Article credits==
| |
− | Its interesting that you have taken credit for an article that I wrote. Pretty sleazy thing to do if you ask me.

− | Mopar Tapered Axle Brake Upgrade was written by me. You had NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

| |
− | :I take exception to your accusation. I have "taken credit" for '''''nothing''''' that you have contributed. If you are worried about the credits that appear above the articles, I agree that minor contributions and/or edits of spelling, grammar, formatting photos, etc. should NOT be accompanied by a credit on the same line with the main contributor- if at all. The way it is now, if a logged-in member so much as adds a period at the end of a sentence, their name appears on the same line with the ''originator'' of the article. I myself have originated '''numerous''' articles that now have other names alongside mine for having done nothing more than add a category to the bottom of the page! Currently this is how Jon has the Crankshaft Coalition wiki set up. In fact I have asked Jon to add an option to eliminate credit from appearing in an article when only minor edits have been done. So far, nothing has come of this request- but it's not like I haven't been aware of this being a problem and it's not like I haven't tried to do something about it.

− | :If you are not satisfied with my explanation, or if you are referring to something other than the credits that appear above your article, I respectfully request you respond here and give me a chance to look into it. Or contact Jon. But I repeat- I HAVE NOT taken credit for your- or anyone else's- work.--[[User:Cobalt327|Cobalt327]] 11:13, 16 January 2015 (MST)

| |
− | I have a V12 and I've hung on to the article you wrote about increasing the oil flow to prevent cavitation. I am planning on building the dual oil pick up this summer based on the information you put up. I have known about the cavitation problem since I purchased the motor 4 years ago. It was an irrigation pump motor and was run on I was informed on Butane. I wanted to see how your refit worked out and what rev limit you achieved. I have and aircraft hydraulic background and understand the mechanical flow idea but will seek out technical assistance. Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated. --[[Special:Contributions/72.187.6.183|72.187.6.183]] 16:44, 15 April 2016 (MDT)

− | :Because of how the wiki credits all edits equally- adding a period at the end of a sentence gets the same credit on the "by" line as the originator of the entire article- you wouldn't know this, but my contribution to the page was only editing existing text and formating images. The actual technical info was provided by user 'Rocketile', who unfortunately hasn't added anything since March 12, 2014. I don't have any more info at this time, sorry. --[[User:Cobalt327|Cobalt327]] 17:37, 15 April 2016 (MDT)
