Borg Warner used to make rifle magazines for the M14 and M1A’s. They have a plant here in western NC.

That’s pretty sweet.

Or did the Warner bros assimilate into the Borg? Remains to be seen...the plot thickens .....the bread gets stale and the hawk still hunts....

4-core aluminum radiator came today. “Slight” difference lol. Cooling system is all new. Radiator, hoses, water pump, thermostat, heater core, rad cap and gaskets. Just gotta get it all in.

Spent the day getting the tent sealed best I could, hung lights and got both propane and diesel heat. Getting ready to hunker down for the winter.

Man I’m sorry to hear that! Ya I’ve been aware of that and there are still a few holes that’ll allow fresh air. Try not to start/stop the diesel heater too much, that’s only time it gets thick
