Carb and EFI Complete Fuel System Kits

You can only bolt so many speed parts onto an engine before the fuel system becomes inadequate. Rather than piece parts together here and there because a certain product company has put together packages for carb and EFI systems that included everything you need to build a complete fuel system. Systems include an Edelcrock electric fuel pump, a matching fuel pressure regulator, a Profilter fuel filter, a fuel pump relay and wiring assembly, 20 feet of ProClassic or ProFlex hose, plus an assortment of hose ends, adapters and mounting brackets. And if red and blue aren’t your style, black and silver fittings are optional.

Manic compression: preserving audio quality

In order to store a sound on a computer, sound waves must be convereted to a digital format. The computer does this by ‘sampling’ each wave many times per second. The more samples that it takes every second, themore accurate the representation of the wave and the better the audio quality. CD-quality audio is sampled 44,100 times every second, and each sample is 16 bits in size.

By default, PCs store the date from a recorded sound wave as a Wav file unless compression is used. Wav files preserve the quality of the original audo but are generally latge, which is why the idea of compressing them to make them smaller is attractive, particularly to those who have portable music players with less storage space.

If you consider that a 70-minute CD album usually uses up an entire 700MB disc, you can work out that a Wav file containing one minute of audio wil use up 10MB of hard disk space.

If you want to archive your CD collection, condiser buying a large hard disk and storing the copies in the uncompressed Wav format to preserve the audio quality. You can then convert the tracks you want into MP3 format for use on your MP3 player. When a significantly better format comes along, you then convert your high-quality Wav files into that format directly rather than reconverting lower-quality MP3s, which would result in a loss of quality.

Computer Viruses

Computer viruses bear more than a passing resemblance to their biological namesakes: they usually reproduce by inserting their code into legitimate programs, much as biological viruses insert their genetic material into a host cell, causing it to be reproduced. They spread quickly between today's highly connected computers, which run similar operating systems and programs, much as colds and flu thrive in dense populations of genetically similar humans.

There are other, more subtle similarities. As in nature, computer viruses spread most rapidly before they are detected and defences ban be mobilised against them. The most widespread viruses are rarely those that incapacitate a computer quickly, as 'killing' the host stops a virus from continuing to multiply and spread.

Within this biological analogy, anti-virus software plays a similar role to an organism's immune system and up-to-date virus signatures are similar to vaccinations. Just as vaccinating the majority of the population against a virus such as polio prevents an epidemic, computers gain 'herd immunity' from a threat if a suitable majority have anti-virus software that can stop it.

ESP Armor

The latest in speed isn't actually a part - it is what the company can do to your parts. The ESP Armor finish is an optional process offered on all new crankshafts, rods and assemblies purchased. The superclick ESP finish allows oil to glide effortlessly along the part, reducing running friction, improving oil shedding and lowering oil temps. Most important, that equates to mare power and torque. ESP strengthens the part by reducing microscopic stress risers in the surface of the part and inhibiting corrosion/ As a result, a one-year limited warranty is included on any standard-weight forged 4340 crankshaft or standard-weight H-beam rods finished with ESP Armor.

Ethos

The goal of the Ethos Mustang is an unconventional marriage of two traditional styling exercises: '65 Shelby G.T. 350 R and vintage Japanese racers. Both cars have the core philosophy-bare bone, light weight, agility and track supremacy. It is all-American where it counts. Underhood will be an all-aluminum 440ci stroker small-block Ford and backed by a five-speed from Modern Driveline hooked to a carbon-fiber drive shaft and a Currie 9-inch. Suspension will be JME's radical road race pushrod/cantilever coil over system front and rear.

Converting analogue video

A significant advantage of transferring VHS recordings to DVD is that you can enhance the footage, add chapters (which makes navigating your home movies easier) and use menus to give your home videos a Hollywood feel, Computer Shopper magazine (113) said.

Unfortunately, unless you have a digital video camera with an analogue input, there's no way of copying VHS videos to your PC without some expense. This is because you need some way to connect a video player to a PC, and PCs rarely come with suitable hardware. The good news though, is that video-capture devices are cheap.

Fortunately, the easiest way to record analogue content and store it in a digital format is to use a combined DVD and VHS recorder. With one of these devices you can play the video, insert a blank disc into the DVD slot and record the content in real time. You'll also have to rip your DVDs "if you want to get the files back on to your hard disk.

Moreover, if you want to transfer your ovies to your PC, you could buy a USB VHS player. Plug the VHS layer into your PC's USB port and install the EZ VHS Converter software that comes with it. When you run the program, select VCR 2 PC and a small box appears on the screen. This displays the video footage on the tape. Type in a file name and then specify how long you want to record for. Press Record and the footage will play in the box onscreen.

The ION VCR@PC provides tracking controls, which you can adjust to get the best video quality. By default, the resulting MPEG files are stored in your My Videos folder. The EZ VHS Converter software has limited editing abilities, but you can use it to cut out unwanted parts of the video.

CS-8000 Circuit Seeker

Last week, I called for a help of an expert electrician here closed in Katy, Texas to check our electric wires and electric box because I felt that there is a serious problem with our electricity. It can't perform well with our high voltage units and appliances.

I was looking at the electric expert as he do fix the problem. He has use a gadget that has a small screen in it. It is called CS-8000 Circuit Seekers as he said. No wonder he easily detects the main problem and that was the concealed wiring and a little break of an open, live circuit. He said that if I didn't directly ask for help, chances are the wire will cause fire.

Indeed, I feel at ease now that our electricity gives its safe function. But thanks to the electricity expert and his CS-8000 Circuit Seeker for a job, excellently work done.

FBX900 Fan/Fixture Box

I recently bought an elegant chandelier for $387. I decided to place it in my living room. As a result, I called the expert to have it installed. What a good idea that they install it between two rafters using FBX900 Fan/Fixture Box. Usually, I've noticed that chandelier gadget is mostly placed directly in the ceiling. But the home expert said that it is better to have an expandable brackets that securely mount the chandelier between joists, eliminating the need to cut and nail 2x4s to the fan or fixture.

What a delightful idea! I appreciate their intelligent work.

Phillips brings cinema to TV.

I have experience true cinema into my living room because of Phillip's 21:9 television. Obviously, the TV gets its name from 21:9 aspect ratio which matches the proportions of many films. It is really good because I can watch the film or my favorite movies without any distracting black bars at the top and bottom of the picture.

Unfortunately, some of the DVDs and TV programmes which I often watch have a narrower image (typically 4:3, 16:9 or 1.85.1) which means that my Cinema 21:9 will either have to display black bars on the side of the picture of stretch the image to fill the screen, causing some distortion.

On the other hand, the horizontal bars at the top and bottom of the film are stored on DVD and Blu-ray disc as part of the picture. To get rid of them, the TV has to upscale the middle of the picture to full the screen's native resolution of 2,560x1,080, resulting in some loss of picture quality.

But these aren't really problems for me. My Cinema 21:9 is tailored to movies and that the aspect ratio is what sets the TV apart from most wide screen TVs, which are tailored for broadcast TV.

Anyway, those are not a big deal for me. What is essential is that I was entertained with what I've watched.

How to make your blog popular.

I have numerous blogs and some of them get the highest rank. Higher rank means getting huge, abundant opportunities. But risking to attain high rank needs time-investing, sacrificial efforts.

Launching a blog? Easy. Having your personal musings read by someone besides Mom? Not so easy, given that 175,000 new blogs hit the web every day. Get yours noticed. Here's how:

Digg it. The purpose of dig.com is to help people find and promote cool but obscure websites. To submit your URL, just register with the site. Users rate the entries, and if you get enough "diggs", your blog could be featured on the sites front page where millions of visitors can see it.

Furthermore, submit your blog to the big three search engines: Google, Yahoo and Microsoft's Live.com. If they know you exist, your site will show up in search results.

The easiest technique: Do a Web search for "add url to Google" (or Yahoo or Live). Follow the link, enter the info, and you're done.

Moreover, post a lot. The most popular post content daily, so focus on a topic so interesting that finding great stuff to muse on doesn't feel like work.

Lastly, write strong headlines. Clear is better than punny. Words that are directly related to your posts are indexed better by search engines.

There you go! Now, you know. Hoping you will make it into the blogging business. This is indeed takes the effort.

New Canon Printer.

I have my old printer at home. It is Epson but when one finds this brand nowadays, it is obsolete or many store regarded this as face-out.

As a result, I bought a new printer which also has two 150-sheet paper trays, a duplex ADF copier and full network scan, fax and printing. Pixma MX850 Canon has it all and I love using it. I can have all the task done without me doing the work on different machines. This is truly all in one. It drat prints emerged at 13.5 ppm, text at 7.9 ppm and full-colour is cheap to run, with a mixed-colour print cost of just 5.6 pp per page.

Furthermore, it has four-colour inkjet MFP=9,600x2,400 dpi maximum resolution, 4,8000x9,600 dpi scan resolution, USB, 10/100 one-year RTB warranty.

Moreover, it has power but it is cheap to run, with a mixed-colour print cost of just 5.6 p per page.

Actually, this one is what I really need to work my job done, easy and fast!

About my SLR Camera

Traveling to places takes me to capture sceneries and natural pictures of people, nature or just about anything that struck my sight. In fact, I always have with me my SLR camera. I just love this and exact photographs of everything that I want to capture.

One of the main benefits of an SLR camera is that its lens can be upgraded or augmented with additional specialist lenses. Still, it makes sense to work out which other lenses you may want before you buy a camera. The lenses must fit the camera, which means sticking to the brand or going for a Sigma or Tamron lens, as these are available in a range of lens mounts.

The most important lens specifications are its zoom rand (expresses as a pair of focal lengths) and the amount of light is can capture (referred to as the aperture size).

Most readers will be familiar with zooms being described as 3x or 12x. These figures tell us the difference in magnification between the wide-angle (zoomed out) and telephoto (zoomed in) ends of the zoom.

The focal length, which is expressed as something like 18-55mm, indicates the specific magnification range of a lens. On a consumer digital SLR, any values below 30 mm are considered wide-angle and any above 80 mm are telephoto, the values in between are referred to as standard. On the other hand, the aperture of the lens is the size of the hole that lets light through. The bigger the hole, the more light is captured and the better the picture quality. Bigger holes make the focus tighter, so background and foreground objects more blurred. This is preferable in many situations, as blurring the background draws attention to the subject.

Most SLR lenses are useless at macro focus, so extreme close-ups require a dedicated macro lens. You should also look out for optical image stabilisation. This counteracts blur-inducing camera shake and is important for telephoto lenses where shakes are magnified.

These are some important points that I must share to you so that when you buy a camera, you can figure out which is the best fit for your choice.
