Bryson and John Marshall

Posted on March 23, 2008 by Brian Gallimore

John Marshall came over for a little bit of play time. They both seemed to have fun playing in the grass and sun.

The Boy Likes Boxes for Sure

Posted on March 23, 2008 by Brian Gallimore

Just like my mom said would happen… Bryson (and I guess all kids) like to play with cardboard boxes.

The next glitch

Posted on March 20, 2008 by Brian Gallimore

I did some adjusting to my Mass Air Flow calibration table and my Power Enrichment table to solve the previous issues. (now I’ve found that the GM computer is limited to 512 g/sec, which I’ve now exceeded) I made a nice full-throttle run on my way home today, logging the results. Something interesting happened, the engine hit the rev limiter just before the shift, causing an awful jolt of non-powered flight. Well, I hope that was what happened, it is also possible that the transmission slipped or took too long to shift let the engine hit the rev limiter. I am going to bring the shift points down a bit and see if that fixes it.

44 more pictures of Bryson

Posted on March 17, 2008 by Brian Gallimore

Amber took a bunch of great pictures today. He is growing up too fast. It seems like he is doing something new every week. He is trying to talk… his gibberish seems to have more structure. He is eating real food, starting to run, loves to drive the Tahoe and push buttons on everything… Amazing!

Here is the link to the online photo album.

Amber wrote more details in her blog here, here, here, and here.

Entry for March 17, 2008 – Trying out WordPress

Posted on March 17, 2008 by Brian Gallimore

Since the news that Yahoo will discontinue their 360 service, I’ve been looking at alternatives.

The most appealing to me is to have complete control over everything. I found WordPress, and am currently giving it a test run. I installed it on a really old and cheap computer that was already set up with a Linux distribution that my music server is running on. So far, it seems to run well. I haven’t decided what kind of theme I want to use yet, but I’ve got it operational with a pre-made theme I downloaded. I also installed the Google AdSense plugin, just to see how that works, plus a few other little things.

So check it out:
http://blog.briangallimore.com/
The address should be pretty easy to remember. The RSS feed seems to work. None of the registration stuff has been set up, so I’m not sure that will work. Please comment on what doesn’t work and what needs help.

MAF Pegged

Posted on March 17, 2008 by Brian Gallimore

I finally got around to tunning the wide-open-throttle performance of quadzilla. I’m lucky I had the fuel so rich, because I found that the mass air flow sensor is pegged out by the time the engine reaches 5000 rpm now…. so the computer doesn’t know how much fuel it should be using in that high RPM area. Pretty scary. So, I’ve found the next bottleneck.

Posted on March 16, 2008 by Brian Gallimore

This is just a dumb test to see if I can post something.

I’ll see what the “insert image” button does.
