I live just west of chicago. So, access is easy. 10 minutes from o-hare. :-) Hydrocloric acid should happily etch the aluminum. That would definitely get things going. I worry that we'll eat through a piston before we get a hole in the block. Test subjects... Now we just need some class d personnel.

Sir Cornelius posted:A pile of rust is a 6-10 on the Sockington scale, and a house-sized pile is 11. If it has tires it's only a 5. A 4 is somewhat drivable. I'm flattered. And I think these need to be properly documented and distrubted to the rest of the internet. I want "A full Z3n" to be a measurement on #chan, and ribbet. Time to break out photoshop....
