Hopefully this won't be seen as spamming, as I'd really appreciate any feedback you guys could give me. We're getting better mics for next time, since there's an echo in the lab.

The general idea is to have some fun with our equipment and to show what different machines can do in the real world - but without stiff, boring videos.


And, yes, I *am* the laziest mechanic in the world.

Nice results. Guessing Chrysler 2.7 heads.

I gotta say, though, I got similar results letting the heads soak in Castrol Superclean for a few minutes on the way to the car wash, then hosing them down with the pressure washer. Still some crud here and there, of course, but a whole lot cleaner than the "parts washer" result. My heads pretty much looked as nasty as the ones in the video.

Not the best pic to show results, but the only one I have online showing the heads as of this moment:

Edit: A couple more pics added

What do those things run. I went to the website and I didnt see a price list.

That one is about 16K, but we have units down to a few hundred (not including the standard GJ discount!).

Any GJ member is welcome to come play with the machines at no cost. Additionally, if you pick up freight, I'll have the parts cleaned for you for free. Most small mechanics can't afford the big machines, so I'm happy to help out with the occasional cleaning job. I know that I'm lazy and hate scrubbing...

Correct on the engine. I just like saying "Stutz Bearcat." :bounce:
