Christ,

I would e-mail him as well. He seems a nice person (at least judging from his videos).
Maybe he might help you before you do it.
There is nothing to lose: Gadgetman@gadgetmantechnologies.com

Why are my posts gone?
Now, I need to send you guys some links to see the news, and I am not allowed to do that.

Pity.

Is this censorship, as you will find if you go to my YouTube channel: GadgetmanGlobal?

After Shel reported here, he passed away.

As you can see from his post, he believed his vehicle was indeed a 99 GMC 1500.

Who among you will continue to challenge that?

Maybe you can just accept his testimony (below) citing about double the mileage with increased power and performance?

Maybe you can look at the other positive ratings (there's over 100 videos on my YouTube channel now, BTW) and start considering that maybe, just MAYBE! I have made a discovery that might be due for some further investigation?

Anyone see something wrong? Frank'll see it right away... betcha a buck.

Gadgetman: first, no we aren't censoring you. The restriction on posting links is a useful tool to weed out new users who come here to post spam. Please think carefully about that.

Second, testimonials are generally viewed as useless information by most people here. They're not "proof" of anything. Anyone who understands the basics of the experimental method would refrain from offering them as evidence about a modification's in/effectiveness.

The fact that you are pushing testimonials hurts your credibility, and will result in most here being extra skeptical of your claims.

[Gadgetman]

I am sorry, but I can't understand that to be true...

As I see here, most people posting are posting their data-their reports-their "testimonial" if you will of their results.

What makes the reports I receive any different from this?

Why is your opinion of higher value than the opinions of those who have actually experienced my technology?

I am sorry, but it seems you are reinforcing my opinion that this site is apparently populated by people with limited capability to accept anything that might force them into a paradigm shift.

"Contempt prior to investigation..."
Look it up.

Another good quote:

"Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof."

I'd love to see some, backed by a good scientific approach. (For an example of that, see the video in this thread.)

I distinguish between customer "testimonials" that aren't based on the experimental method vs. "evidence" which is. One of those is worth taking more seriously than the other.

If you don't understand the difference, you're in trouble.

When it comes to evaluating mods, "opinion" is irrelevant. What counts is methodology.

Not if you can provide good evidence from solid methodology.

From "vacuumandthegadgetmangroove.pdf":

At TDC (Top Dead Center), the intake ari speed is at its slowest (zero). At this point, the Gadgetman Groove starts collecting air from the intake air stream (for the first 90 degrees of rotation). This causes the vacuum to spike. This spike in vacuum rips the fuel into vapor, ready to mix with the available oxygen, ready to become a much more volatile mixture.

Slamming the Mixture

When the piston passes the midpoint, it begins to slow. This causes a reaction inside the groove itself, and the ball of air that built up in the first part of the cycle is released into the intake passage to complete its journey to the piston. When it hits the intake valve, it has no where else to go and so expands explosievly, completing the blending precess with the available fuel vapor.

If you actually managed to achieve this it would decrease the efficiency of the engine, since what you actually want is for the pressure to be as high as possible for as long as possible, and only decrease (if needed) towards the end of the intake stroke, for the desired fill-rate.

Oh it's right where you put it last..........and still in the same place you are going to but your NEW one!!!!
