I use diesel filters, which are 4 inches tall.  Put an extra low 
Toro base under it, a diesel lid on top, and it fits my cars.

Subject: [73-77olds] O/T Interesting MICKEY THOMPSON story

 Man, I was in my early 20's when this happened. I remember A few friends of
mine grabbed all the mickey T stuff they could get thier hands on thinking
it might be worth money someday. (Remember the old "M/T" valve covers? Stuff
like that.).Either way GREED and SHADY BUSINESS PARTNERS took a
legendary race car driver and great contributor to the automotive hobby from
us.
When the hobby goes from fun, relaxing and profitable,  to greed and murder,
it's no longer a hobby anymore. Lets hope this never happens again. Anyway,
.and it looks like justice may finally come. Here's the story
 
 
PASADENA, Calif. (Nov. 7) - Legendary racer Mickey Thompson and his wife
were gunned down nearly 19 years ago in a hit ordered by an embittered
former business partner, a prosecutor told the jury Monday in a dramatic
opening statement.
 
 


Talk About It: Post Thoughts  
 

Revenge for expensive legal defeats motivated Michael Goodwin to arrange the
killings, said prosecutor Alan Jackson, who showed jurors enlarged
photographs from Thompson's celebrated career and of the couple lying in
blood in their driveway.  
The March 16, 1988, killings were engineered so Thompson, 59, would see his
wife, Trudy, die before he was shot in the head, the prosecutor said.  
"Over and over, the mantra he repeated was the same: 'Please don't hurt my
wife,"' Jackson said, quoting neighbors who heard the couple's cries.  
Goodwin, 61, is charged with two counts of murder with special circumstances
and faces life in prison if convicted.  
Public defender Elena Saris countered in her opening statement that there is
no forensic evidence, no murder weapon, no proof of a payout to anyone.  
"This is the story of a botched investigation and a Hollywood series of
events based on false assumptions," Saris said.  
Thompson competed in numerous auto sports and was the first person to travel
more than 400 mph on land. He was inducted posthumously into the Motorsports
Hall of Fame of America.  
Goodwin's prosecution came about after years of pressure by Thompson's
sister, Collene Campbell.  
Jackson told the jury that Thompson, who was known for staging Motocross
races, went into business at age 55 with Goodwin, who was involved with
Supercross, the intense motorcycle races typically staged on stadium dirt
courses featuring dramatic jumps.

"The evidence in this case will show that from day one Michael Goodwin had
bad intentions," Jackson said,"outlining a completely circumstanticl case.  
The prosecutor said Goodwin was once overheard "saying he was going to screw
over Mickey Thompson. But he underestimated Mickey Thompson."  
Jackson said Thompson wasn't highly educated but was brilliant.  
"He was a Rhodes scholar in the school of hard knocks. He wasn't going to
get screwed over," Jackson said.  
Before long, Thompson realized he was being cheated and sued his new
partner, Jackson said. Goodwin was ordered to repay more than $793,000 after
a judge found that he had stolen more than $500,000, the prosecutor said.  
Further lawsuits over the next two years forced Goodwin to declare
bankruptcy, Jackson said.  
"Michael Goodwin was suffering a pattern of losing he could not tolerate,"
the prosecutor said.  
Jackson said a witness will tell how Goodwin once declared: "Before he sees
a dime I'll have him wasted."  
Three witnesses testified that they heard Goodwin make threatening remarks
about Thompson just weeks or months before the couple was gunned down.  
One, former police Cmdr. Bill Wilson, testified that he had introduced the
two men. He said he knew there were problems between them but was stunned
when Goodwin told him: "Thompson is killing me. He's destroying me. He's
taking everything I've got. I'm gonna take him out."  
Wilson said he replied, "Nobody wins that one. Mickey's dead and you're in
prison." When the conversation ended, he said, Goodwin told him he was
joking.  
Goodwin hired two men to go to the Thompsons' house in the gated Los Angeles
suburb of Bradbury, which he had scoped out beforehand, to shoot them and
escape on bicycles, Jackson alleged.  
Saris acknowledged harsh words were spoken between Goodwin and Thompson, but
said "folklore was generated by the media," leading witnesses to come
forward with

List,

Second message I just sent to seller. We'll see if he is still foul mouthed:

According to the FBI, body tags are also prohibited to sell along with VIN 
tags. Often, the 2 tags have related numbers. A body tag can be used to 
commit a car selling fraud across state lines, which is Federal 
jurisdiction. That's why. Also, I see the you have this stated on your 
auction site:
Q: Hello, Your listing states Correct Documents. Do you have the VIN, Data 
Plate and Title that all match each other? Thanks, Bill
 Nov-02-06
  A: Yes! This is maybe the only way to identify the 1967 442 cars.This is 
what you want if you are cloning or just want an original. Thank you for the 
question.
That would indicate you also have the VIN and title available for sale. I 
respectfully suggest that you not sell that body tag, nor the VIN and title.

Wrong. Just because GM doesn't have cross numbers between cowl tags and VIN 
tags, that doesn't mean that ***every*** auto manufacturer does it that way. 
There is a reason for what I've been told by the FBI. If you can prove that 
information was incorrect, please do so. A switched cowl tag, notice that I 
said switched - not reproduced - those are 2 different things, can be used 
to facilitate the sale of a wrecking yard rebuilt vehicle for a genuine used 
vehicle. It can also be used to build "chop-shop" rebuilt vehicles to hide 
their origin as being stolen. That's why the FBI is interested in 
***anyone*** selling a cowl tag. If an investigation leads to other 
discoveries, the individual would be busted. In this case, 442cash admitted 
he had the VIN tag and the title "available." I think that just might 
establish intent.

Except that 442cash has 67 positive feedbacks with a total feedback score of 
100%. He was the guy for eBay 200043160627
and still has 200043409118 up with 10 other auctions. He was the guy who 
wanted to sell the '67 442 body tag and hinted that he also had the VIN tag 
and title for sale, for a total of $700.00. He is unusually mad at me right 
now, and I could care less. I just don't like someone bastardizing our Olds 
hobby.

I have found with other types of internet auctions the feedback system can 
be more political than based in reality.

I just noticed another problem with this seller. I don't think eBay will 
allow him to do this little trick;

"Seller's payment instructions
BY CREDIT CARD, OR WIRE TRANSFER WITHIN 12 HOURS OF AUCTION CLOSE. MUST BE 
WIRE TRANSFERRED BEFORE ITEM CAN BE SHIPPED."

O, can we spell fraud and scam?

Randy,

You don't need a firesuit. Your criticism is valid. That's why I stayed with 
engine questions. I missed the intake point and the wall. I simply didn't 
see it. But I did ask for the head I.D., for that would clear up everything.

There is one final item. The seller did have an inappropriate payment method 
listed at the bottom of the ad. EBay themselves state to never do a wire 
transfer.

Seller's payment instructions
BY CREDIT CARD, OR WIRE TRANSFER WITHIN 12 HOURS OF AUCTION CLOSE. MUST BE

The trick is to either cut a piece of rubber hose and butt the ends together 
and place it on top of the air filter. Then with a longer center carb stud, 
attach the air cleaner top, which is now spaced upward an inch or so. The 
second way is to find another air filter element that is an inch or two 
taller than the stock element, which will place the air cleaner top above 
the base. Filtering is still fine, but more air is available than through 
the air cleaner snorkel.

Olds List,

Response from the seller of the '67 442 body tag. I guess by his response we 
can figure out just what type of person he is. I would recommend never 
dealing with this individual. I noticed that eBay pulled his ad for the body 
tag, but didn't hurt any of his other ads.

"F#$% you," indeed
is that what passes for manners in your neck of the woods?

I grew up in Lansing living and breathing Oldsmobiles.
I know all there is to know about them
there is no such thing as an "end of the year 1969 with 1970 body panels"

That's called a model year change.
then they put 1970 VIN's on them.

here you go:

here's a real VIN tag
note the real factory rivets sealed with body sealer
I bet yours does not quite look like that.

This is what a 1969 Cutlass looks like- note the tailite diffs and EVERY

There is no law against selling a cowl tag. It does not contain ANY vin info. It IS against the law to remove and sell a VIN tag. You can have NEW cowl tags made. You CANNOT have new VIN tags made.

The seller cannot sell that body tag. It's a Federal Felony to do so, 
period. Yes, people try to skirt around the law and do some things that 
aren't legal. They just weren't caught, yet.

Ask the List about the sting that was pulled a year ago on a seller on eBay

[And finally I have NO idea where that Original Grill came from???
I'm REALLY confused??]

I don't expect this reply to go over too well, but I have to say it. The first 
thing that went through my head when I read the questions was "This guy is a 
total @ss, what an idiot". I also think the seller answered rather respectfully 
considering the "tone" in which the questions were written. The questioner 
comes off to me as a loud mouthed know it all that buries himself the more he 
spouts off.

If he's questioning the year of the car by what rear bumper is on itwell, 
duh. Anyone into '70-'72 Cutlass'/442's know that the front and rear bumpers 
can be interchanged...not correct, but functional. VIn tells you it's a '72 
Supreme that had a 350 originally. Front grille...uh, it's a blacked out '72 
Supreme grille...just like the '72 Hurst/Olds. Radio...obviously not there, so 
don't expect it to come with the car.

If he wanted to come across as a sincere possible bidder with questions, he 
should have asked for the casting numbers on the block and heads. Paint...you 
can paint anything any color you want...it has no meaning in the grand scheme 
of things.

Anyone looking at the auction can tell it's not a show car and not put back 
together 100%. Missing a/c ductwork underdash, brake pedal pad, wrong color 
radiator top plate (oops, that's just paint), missing wiring going to 
wiper/washer motor, open breather grommets, ashtray door missinghow many 
more things can you pick out?

It's not my car and I don't know the seller, but I think nit picking Ebay 
auctions has gone overboard when you start picking apart average cars and 
questioning the integrity of sellers (he is not a newbie and has 100% feedback) 
that aren't trying to pass off a Cutlass as a real 442 or an obvious '70 as a 
'69.

Doning my fire suit,
Randy

Actually, according to the vin, it is a 72 Cutlass Supreme with a 350 4 barrel and single exhaust. And it IS a bigblock. That`s a performer 455 intake and it has the small `wall' that sticks up, on the pad, behind the water pump and in front of the intake. Blow up the pics and look closer. One of the many joys of selling on ebay. Too many people who don`t know what their looking at or talking about but are so quick to critisize.I`de say it`s a pretty nice car.

Kerry,

> OK Milton I agree with most of what you have said here

> Nuke power plants produce more energy than they
> consume?? Right??


No. The Law of Conservation of Energy applies everywhere in our universe. 
The power produced by a nuclear power plant is covered by Einstein's famous 
equation: E=MC2. All the energy comes from the breaking of particle bonds in 
the nucleus of each atom. That is a tremendous amount of energy release. The 
energy equation still balances inside a nuclear reactor, energy in equals 
energy out. The difference in nuclear power reactors is that some designs 
are much more efficient than older designs. The U.S. is saddled with old 
style nuclear reactors. The Europeans, the British, and the Japanese are 3-4 
generations ahead of us in the types of nuclear reactors they use. Their 
electrical power generation from the output of their nuclear reactors is 
much more efficient than the power we get.


> So the energy is contained in the
> atomic structure and is converted to another form in
> the reactor?


No, not in the reactor, outside the reactor. The energy from the reactor is 
used to heat water, or liquid cessium, or another working fliud, which 
carries the heat to water, creating a superheated steam to run turbine 
electrical power generators.

That's not the real problem. First, it takes a certain amount of energy to 
separate the H2 and the O2 from the water. Then, the H2 and the O2 is burned 
together to make power and do work. The question is, how much energy was 
necessary to produce a sufficient quantity of H2 and O2 to be able to burn 
it together and make the required power. So far, even with this guy's 
improved electrolyis method, it's not economical, at least on a smal scale, 
and ramp up to large scale has posed some problems that haven't been 
overcome.

There's also one other small problem with using H2 that I've been simply 
amazed that no one has been talking about. H2 at low pressure burns with a 
clear flame in daylight. That's right, one can't see it. Even a high 
pressure H2 jet is mostly invisible. Take a look at the space shuttle main 
engines burning. The color in the flame cone is almost non-existant. Just 
thing\k of a small low pressure leak at a H2 refueling station for a H2 
fueled car. Somehow it ignites. No one can see the flame. A motorist who is 
refueling their car walks into it and catches their pants leg on fire. I've 
used H2. We used it in our NASA funded Scram-Jet experiments to keep the 
flame lit in the combustion stage at high Mach numbers to stop flame-out. 
The safety precautions for using H2 as a fuel are extensive, because one 
can't see the flame burning in daylight.


> NASA has had hydrogen generators and motors for years
> right?  I wonder how they work verses this guys low
> voltage water fracture machine?


I don't know how they compare, except the items at NASA that burn liquid H2 
are rocket engines. I do have a small problem with the term "fracture." The 
bond in the electron shell of a H2O molecule must be broken to separate H2 
from O2. I'm just not sure I'm comfortable with describing it as fracture. 
That seems to say that energy is released, yet he claims there is no 
increase in water temperature. I'd really like to sit down and talk to the 
inventor.

BTW, would you like to know how the NERVA and ROVER nuclear rocket engines 
worked in the late '50s and early '60s, the engines that would have put us 
on Mars in 1975 and were killed by LBJ? Basically, one just injected water 
straight through a ultra high temperature nuclear reactor. The intense heat 
ripped the H2O molecules apart, creating a high pressure stream of H2 and O2 
gas, which was the initial propulsion source. Then the H2 and O2 were 
reignited at the rear of the exhaust nozzle, like an afterburner of sorts. 
An engine the size of a VW could produce the same thrust as the entire space 
shuttle.

Water, in the form of ice, is available throughout our solar system. I have 
at home, sitting on my shelf, the scale model we built of our autotonomous 
robotic nuclear powered water miner we proposed to NASA while I was at the 
University of Arizona. The spacecraft used onboard water to power her 
nuclear rocket engine, based after the NERVA and ROVER concepts. Upon 
landing at a promising site on an icy asteroid, a superheated steam drill, 
powered by superheated steam from the reactor, drilled through the crust, 
the steam melted the ice, the water was sucked up into the water storage 
tank, when the tank was full, the spacecraft tookoff back to her homebase, 
using a small portion of the water she just harvested to get there through 
her nuclear rocket engine.
