Powerblock

Everyone watching the new season of Powerblock on SpikeTV Today??

I can't believe they have Courtney from Overhaulin as the show host.

That guy on MuscleCar TV....didn't really like him.

I forgot the new season started this week. I'm really tired of re-runs.

Hey seen the flamethrower episode too. I was thinking, couldn't you run propane gas into your exhaust after the converter and have a spark plug ignite that? At least you would trash your engine! But could blow your exhaust all to hell!

Yeah that was cool. $3500 ain't bad for something like that. They said it could lift 6000 lbs.

Mine isn't portable but was about the same $$ installed as a portable lift it and can lift 9k lbs.
I spent the last couple years building my dream garage and saving for my 2 post lift.That's the reason I'm still driving a 9 year old truck w/156k miles. :o
Now I can start saving for my new truck.

I just seen it....


That maybe my second major purchase when I build my shop.
But that thing is huge, where would I store it? It's going to take up a lot of shop space.

If anyone is interested in a reasonably priced 6000 lb. scissor lift.A guy over on the Grand National messageboard bought the one in the link below.It works good for GN which weighs around 36-3700 lbs.I don't know if it would work good for a big truck.I don't know if there is a big difference in quality between this scissor lift and the one that they showed on Trucks because I was on the computer and not paying much attention to the tv.If anyone is looking for one it may be worth checking out.I pull the trannys on the Buicks too often so that's why I needed a 2 post lift.
