Glow Plugs do not equal spark plugs for diesel

My diesel has a grid heater, but my girlfriend's, the one with more displacement, has glow plugs. Mine starts better everytime

Furthermore the OP should waste more of his time going fast with A/C induction and less time gumming up the boards with senseless rambling.

possibly the only post that makes sense and also a very good point at the same time. I found some pistachio's (sp) to munch on, taste much better than popcorn

 

I'm not only going to run refrigerant through my TB but the heads as well. Run it right through the steam pipes too. Think about it. Everything is there to do the transition but will it hold up to the pressure?

 

The A/C system does not have the capacity to cool a V-8. Why would you want to supercool the engine anyway? Does your engine run best when you first fire it up in the morning during winter? No it runs like *** until it warms up. Engines have optimal operating temperatures. This idea is rediculous and illogical; just abandon it and leave it at that.

If the intake air is simply drawn through the A/C evaporator it won't be able to cool the amount of air the engine uses.
The only feasible way to use the A/C system to cool the intake air would be to use the evaporator to chill the water in a water-to-air intercooler. The water acts as a higher density thermal storage medium. Keep in mind the water would take much longer to chill than it would to heat up.

 

You need to put an end to this nonsense, now. Why do you think you get kicked off all these forums?

If you think you are going to put a/c pressures that can be as high as 300 psi (even the low side can be 50) into a cooling system that is only rated for 18 psi...not to mention all the other reasons it is such a ridiculous idea.

 

C'mon Shoebox..... get the facts right. Evry time I spray the 300-shot of nitrous, I crack my pistons. And I have my AC system set up so it runs full blast all the way down the 1/4-mile, because everyone knows the AC system runs without consuming any power.

This whole thread is ridiculous.
