I do that too, after COD on the high sea and in between 70 and +100 M deep, and let me tell you pulling a 13 KG COD from 100 M below are a workout.
And really 13 KG cod are not that big, the Danish record are more than 2 X that ( 36 KG ).
But for that i use larger Penn ASO reels that hold 300 M of the strongest braided line, and a lot of Dacron for backing as it would be too expensive to fill the big reels with that braided line.


Its a bitch to get hooked up on a wreck with that braided line, nothing to do but clamp down with all your brake and might, and then wait for the fishing boat to start moving. :mrgreen:


But that ice reel look more like some of my smaller fly reels.

DRM valved Bilsteins for Corvette.
been trying to track some of these down for 6 months. they only build a tiny batch of these once a year. hard to get:oops: valved specifically for the C5/C6 to address the wild/unstable ass end of these cars. i assume the rear rebound is cranked way up over the standard bilsteins.

Looks nice allanon, not my cup of tea, (reminds me of a rebadged Toyota), but to each his own. I'm a Dodge guy myself, having owned a Gen 2, 3, and now a 4. I f you have concerns or issues, the guys on https://www.ramforum.com/ can help out. Lots of Vendors and Chrysler mechanics on there to support our rides "thumbsup"

I used to have an 8e 3.0 and absolutely loved how it handled but I unfortunately sold it. So I finally decided to pull the trigger on a 4.0

First I've heard of the issue, though admittedly I don't camp on LS1Tech like I used to. My buddy tracks his 2010 regularly and is 100% stock. Maybe the Grand Sports don't have the same problem though.

I understand that, I was already a member of the ram forum.. I had the very first year of the major redesign of Dodge Ram..1994 2500 4X4 with the V-10. It was forest green with silver on the bottom..sat high up and was a beast of a truck! I should have kept it...:cry: This is my 5th Ram since 2012 and by far the best of the 5 in my opinion.

edit: Apparently I have a comprehension problem.. The ram forum site is not the one I belong to, ( I do now though) now I dont know which one it is lol!

Really like that guitar! That natural flame looks so damn good with the SC shape, ebony board, and MOP blocks. Compound radius is very nice too. Schecter has always been a favorite of mine ( have 3 currently). Never heard the Pasadena/ Plus PAF's but I have no doubt that they sound great.

The jury is still out on the pickups. They are bright for a LP style guitar, but the low end seems to be little fizzy. I'll know better when I get it to practice volume.

I'd be interested to hear what you think after the dust settles. Still a gorgeous guitar. With me the play-ability comes first... well cost, then play-ability lol.

I don't think I've owned a guitar where I was totally sold on the stock pickups.
