	Slant Magazine - Music Review: Stereolab: Fab Four Suture
		But the reference to the Beatles' final studio album would've been appropriate, as Stereolab's first album released in the States following their dismissal from the WEA is simultaneously a structural free-for-all and a glossy collection of diverse material.
		That's probably because it's not really an album at all but a collection of 7" singles that have been released in two 3-EP chunks, the first batch last year and the second simultaneously with the release of this compilation.
		Fab Four opens and closes with a starry, glam-rock shuffle "Kyberneticka Babicka." Like a slice of Xanadu "Magic," the shifting chords, squelching organ runs, and sustained vocal harmonizing provide a hypnotic overture, a call to skates as conducted (or DJed) by Sgt. Pepper himself.

	Slant Four - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Originating in 1966, it was one of the first production overhead camshaft designs to use a rubber toothed belt to drive the camshaft from the crankshaft (an honor shared with the 1966 Pontiac OHC Six), a method used on almost all modern engines.
		The engine features four inline cylinders inclined at an angle of approximately 45 degrees (hence the name), and this is because the engine was developed by taking a V8 design from General Motors in the US and cutting it in half.
		The design became the basis for the Lotus 2.0 and 2.2 engines used in a wide variety of sports cars, but while the basic block was copied almost unchanged, it was cast in aluminium alloy instead of iron, which made it considerably lighter.

		The original pieces used in '64-66 slant six four-speed packages are no longer available; but, the '75-77 pieces will work fine.

	Three-dimensional orientation tuning in macaque area V4 - Nature Neuroscience
		Stereoscopic slant was conveyed by the binocular disparity gradient along the bar edges (which can also be thought of as orientation disparity) and the disparity gradient of small texture elements on the bar surface.
		Slant values (0°, 22.5°, 45°, 67.5°) indicate stereoscopic rotation of the bar stimulus with respect to the image plane and about an axis positioned at its center and orthogonal to its long axis.
		All neurons with significant slant tuning were tested with one effective slant and one ineffective slant at disparities ranging from -1.0° to 1.0° at 0.2° intervals, as in Fig.

	4 Speed Transmissions transmission
		Since the A-833s installed behind slant sixes were basically the same transmissions installed in the V8 cars, a slant six owner looking to install an A-833 should be familiar with all the A-833s produced, including the ones used behind V8s.
		Four speed cars require a special floorboard hump alongside the trans tunnel to clear the shift rods and the shifter.
		The other four speed was the A-435 which is a huge truck four speed that shifts like a truck, it has a truck non-syncronized "granny low" first gear.

	Triumph Dolomite - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		With proper maintenance and the correct coolant, the engine has been proven reliable by many classic car enthusiasts, and it is telling that in a decade where British Leyland became notorious for poor build quality, the Dolomites seem to have kept up a very acceptable standard overall.
		The slant four engine went on to be fitted to the Triumph TR7 in a mixed version with the Sprint's two litre displacement and the 1850's eight valve head.
		Due to its advanced aluminium head the slant four was also capable of running on unleaded petrol without modifications.

	Slant Magazine - Film Review: Fantastic Four
		Even if the filmmakers had concocted ribald sexual subplots about a plastic man mating with an invisible woman, there would still be little chance of fully overcoming the inherent ho-humness of Marvel's classic superpowered foursome, a group of astronauts bestowed with extraordinary abilities after a freak outer space accident radically alters their DNA.
		As the plasma-wielding Human Torch, Evans gets both the movie's best CG work (the trail of flames left by his airborne flight is perfectly recreated) and its copious one-liners.
		For humor, however, nothing in Fantastic Four tops Ben's horny (and apparently dense) wife meeting her husband on a nighttime Manhattan street in nothing but a skimpy negligee.

		The slant six had a unique 30 degree slant for a lower hood line and easier arrangement of accessories; it also allowed the intake manifold to have a ram effect.
		There are a number of sources of parts to increase the power of the slant 6.
		Several other slant six racers pointed out that the more common route is the 225, with its larger displacement.

	Carr Amps - Slant 6V
		The 40 watt Slant 6V offers an impressive range of legendary American and British tones, and unprecedented versatility and usable power without sacrificing the warmth, clarity and handbuilt, all-tube tone that are the hallmark of our amplifiers.
		At the heart of the Slant 6V are two independent, foot-switchable channels: Channel One bridges our shimmering clean tone with gutbucket, overdriven blues, while the dual gain settings on Channel Two offer pure tube crunch, soaring sustain and fluid dynamic response.
		The Slant 6V can be operated at half-power in cathode bias (18W) or fixed bias mode (22W), yielding tones reminiscent of early tweed and AC-style combos in cathode mode, and a punchier, more tightly defined sound in fixed bias mode.

		The 1965 C-body unit is identical to the 1964-1965 B-body unit except the mount provision on the tailshaft housing is different and accepts a C-body isolator mount, which is wider.

		Each of the four pivoting pylons could carry stores attached directly or suspended from bomb release units (BRU), which were more aerodynamic variants of the multiple ejector racks (MER) carried by other fighters.
		Up to four pylon-mounted stores could be carried or BRU-mounted loads of eight high-drag 750-lb cluster bomb units (CBU) or 12 low-drag 500-lb bombs.
		If the bottom BRU stations were empty, the load was called a ‘flat four’; when the inboard BRU stations were empty, it was a ‘slant four’.

		In 1940, engineering started on a military four wheel drive truck, leading to the first stock light-duty four wheel drive pickup in 1946; these were made in a new, massive truck plant.
		The good news came in a pair of modern six cylinder engines, the tough and advanced (for the time) slant six, producing 101 horsepower from 170 cubic inches or 140 horsepower from 225 cubic inches.
		The 170 slant six was gone, leaving the more suitable 225 as the base engine, while the modern 318 (160 hp) was now available as an economical V8.

		To ensure optimum performance of the MODE FOUR, four complimentary 4x12â cabinets were designed â“ two angled and two straight.
		Marshall has also investigated the effect of the relative positioning of the speakers within a cabinet and found that by moving them around they were able to fine tune the mids and, to a lesser degree, the lows, for optimum performance.
