Yeah dude, If you have a computer you could hook up to it, theres plenty of HD material around. I could send you a disk or 2 myself. Some good demo stuff and some .... well .... not for the family... 
Let me know.

Well there's plenty of Family material coming out of Germany, though generally not HD. HP, perhaps.

Been watching the OTA HD stuff.. It ain't bad.. Ok.. it looks pretty darn good given my super quick setup...
Watching the IRIS do its thing is pretty interesting.. But the settings it ended up with were horrible..
Might try plugging the computer to in tomorrow...

How did he do the rear engine swap?

A little OT - but just curious why all the posters in thread recommend the Fury and not a Moome box?

If it's the one I'm thinking of he didn't put the engine at the back, he converted the car to RWD.

Its Larry Bufords... Front engine rear drive.. Uses a 2.5 common block with a 2.4 cly head from a PT cruiser... Bell housing from a 4 cly dakota.. To a Supra 5speed tranny.. to a narrowed furd 9 incher... A holset from a Cummings diesel provides Boost...
95% of the car has been built straight out of the local pick and pull.. My kinda people.... a cheap SOB.. I keep trying to let him allow me to make a pass at the local strip.. Last year he only ran the car 11.4... The darn thing should bust into the 10's.. (he has terrible 60 ft times for the car) But I guess they give him enough crapp running 11.40's anyway without a cage.. and for some reason he cannot be talked into a cage... don't ask me..
I am going to try and pick up a cheapo camera after a while and then will post pix of the 808, and a bunch of us turbo dodge guys are suposed to be getting together Sunday.. I can get you pix of Larrys car if you want...
