    saving this for later. I blew yet another rack seal - I'm putting a pressure reducer in the pump but that will affect my hydroboost brakes... which leads me to consider simply making the rack manual

    the 'next' BB I'm building will likely land in PF2.... I might see about building something like what mfain built for his 56...
    Hmm, not sure which project I wanna see more ...

    for the sharp eyes, yes, it's a boat pan.... but this will work well.

    drove the Corvette today - was acting like it had a vacuum leak..
    it was

    this stupid throttle cable holder... it had moved back and forth - thus loosening the bolt on the back corner of the efi. Add to all of this that it removed about 10% of throttle opening... stupid little things. Ah well, temporaried again, but looking for a solution. I had a different throttle cable holder before but it doesn't fit on the Sniper...

    Although that idea piques interest, we will probably still be busy as our son, Sean (AMeanXtreme), is getting married to Kim a week prior to that show! Have Fun and you are welcome to our servings of watermelon!

    I think she got 2 tomatoes and 6 green beans ,2 carrots. The animals got everything else . She did not find it as funny as I did.
    I've found that is a good way to increase my pneumatic powered home protection device collection.
