Yesterday on the radio I heard about a free seminar to learn more information on becoming a helicopter pilot. Are these seminars legit? Where would you go to learn to be a helicopter pilot?

I just purchased a 289 to replace the original inline6. Can I flip the motor mounts for the inline 6 backwards to fit the 289 or do I need to measure and purchase new motor mounts for the car.

The Police are not always keen to take any action. Is there a procedure? Via web pages?

Under the computerised system, can the Police find out if a vehicle is taxed? Can this sort of work be privatised? Would that be a good idea?

My car is overheating while sitting in traffic during the hot summer heat with the AC ON.

What happens is this:

1. Begin to get into traffic - slowing down or a complete stop.
2. After a few minutes in traffic, the AC begins to blow hot air.
3. A few minutes after that, the temperature gauge goes through the roof.

The AC works fine with the temp guage having no problems when there is no traffic - it blows cold and the guage stays at the mid-point.

As soon as I get into traffic, bam - AC blows hot and the gauge goes hotter.

Why?

We hear a lot of argument both for and against the effectiveness of roadside speed cameras, both sides claiming that the devices have or haven't saved any given number of lives.
What I want to know is this - how do they measure the effectiveness, or otherwise of each camera and where, if anywhere, is this information recorded?

Given that statistics can be formed to prove just about anything you want (99.5% of all statistics prove this), is there a sure-fire, definitive way of stating whether a specific camers is or isn't doing what it's supposed to do (ie slow traffic and save lives, or just generating revenue for the police and other authorities)?

I got this piece of information regarding bore stroke ratio of the engine - "The bore is the diameter of the cylinder and the stroke is the length that piston travels, which is generated when pistons upmost and downmost positions are compared, which is twice the crank throw."

I am wondering what "crank throw" is. Please help out? Thanks!
