I used to be an aluminum welder up in Washinton state, but lost that job so now I'm trying to save my money and move my family down to So Cal, working in the R&D dept. of Pertronix, at the Irwindale branch (who also own Doug's, JBA, and Patriot header companies) making header prototypes for new cars, and sometimes I get to make headers for friends of the company. That's Mon-Thur., 4-10's, then on Fri.-Sun, I work with Bobby Walden at Walden Speed Shop in Pomona. I'm learning the YODER, and Pullmax, plus help build cool HotRods. Currently welding up and machining an LS intake to fit a 4-71 blower on it.....

At the Speed Shop, I'm much more at home. That's me on the Pullmax, then there is Bobby running the YODER while teaching me how to use it...

Here's the LS intake Bobby and I have made. His design and ideas, and I machined it, hand fit individual runner pieces, then welded it up, made and welded in the blow off valves, and machined it again. I myself am not really an LS guy, I like old, leaky, unreliable motors, but there seem to be a lot of interest in LS motors, and not many 4-71 styles out there that we know of...

Yes there is a control box you have to setup inside the Locomotive to put it into remote mode. There are certain Locos that are built for RC operations. Each crew uses a set of two Locos per shift to move and build trains in a yard. After a train is fully built road Locos are put on in place of the RCs and sent off to the next yard.

I work for PDI. Basically we make BIG horsepower for big rigs and we do resto and custom work on them to. So when you hear a guy say there's no money in trucking he's either lying or not doing it right! LOL
