fuel level

I'm fairly sure these are older then me but still work fantastic on 16 ga stainless

that is not an impact driver and I wouldn't dream of using it with my punches

installed

weird, magnets stick to stainless

yet somehow they didn't before

OBX welded the inserts in place.... ugh

NO


I think round one will still be bolt the cones in place and hope it drops the dbs enough. I'm going to autox at PIR before Optima - if it works, great, if not, they toss me and I figure something out in the 6 or so weeks between that event and primetime

Yes the developer is vital, to show the dye coming through. For finding holes you don't really need their cleaner (acetone works), mostly that works best for surface crack detection where you apply dye, then wipe it away with a -cleaner- soaked cloth, then apply developer over the top to suck dye out the same way it went in.

I paid around $15-20 each for my spray-cans at the welding supply some time back so if that price is for-real then MSC (hardly known for great prices) is the bomb.

Get it? The bomb...like spray-bomb...nevermind.

Tank is looking great...I'm imagining this is taking advantage of no-longer-used spare tire space, what's the capacity?

Stripping vinyl off old material sucks bad. Hours of not-fun.

I had long-ago planned on building a tank for the Camaro, primarily for having something baffled to quell the side-to-side slosh/slam. Maybe in a few months.

I had to look in my cabinet to see what kind of penetrant stuff I had, it's Fault Finder brand, ten bucks each for red and white at MSC: Crack Detection Kits & Components - Crack Detection - MSC Industrial Supply (mscdirect.com)

This is a reasonably priced set up, but it's part of a 3 part kit (each costs about $10).... there's also a cleaner and developer.... nice that you can buy each individually and it is about the best priced I've found so far.

cardboard fiber is the next thing in racing.

It works in LSR! Lots of pizza box airflow enhancements.

Doesn't the cardboard element spoil the air flow?

people with tiny feet don't get it, but the pedals are pretty annoying to anyone else.


a bit more space for feet - and the benefit of not catching your foot under the brake pedal


power window switch fixed


and the rest of the wing parts arrived
