    Episode 57 - Ford Modular Engines

    Welcome back, or more accurately, I am back.  Sorry for the long delay between podcasts.

     Today I talk about the Ford Modular engine family.  I did a blog post about these engines a while ago, but since we recently bought a Ford Expedition with a 5.4, I thought it was time to revisit it.

    Episode 56 - Driving in the Winter

    Today I get a little off topic and talk about driving in the winter.

    The reason I am talking about this is because it is snowing here and since it is one of the first snowfalls of the year, a lot of people around here are still remembering how to drive in it.

    I talk about how to practice driving in the winter, hint find a big parking lot.

    I also talk about traction control, ABS, 4 wheel and all wheel drive.

    I also talk about snow tires, and how they work better in snow.

    Episode 55 - High Performance Only Engines

    Today I talk about High Performance Only Engines, that is Muscle car engines that didn't have a low performance version, or the low performance version was enough different that the basic engine block wasn't the same.

    Like the Chevy 302 in the first gen Z/28 or the Mopar 340, there was no low performance version.

    Others, there were changes in the basic engine block, like going to 4 bolt mains for more strength:

    Or even cross bolted mains:

    Some Like the previously mentioned 302 and 340, like the Ford 427, didn't come in a low performance version.

    Some Like the ZL1 427 used aluminum for the engine block to save weight.
