                  • Is this going to solve my fuel delivery issues or am I going to have to change brands of pumps also?

                    I have killed 2 Holley HP150 fuel pumps - while whinning about it over dinner in Detroit, George told me to MAN UP and put in a return line.

                    So here goes:

                    What a freaking nightmare snakeing 15' of 5/8" aluminum tubing through the car after it is fully assembled. The genious (me) that modified the front inner fender skirts so that they can't be removed with the front clip on the car should be SHOT!

                    • Like the covers Alan. Blue Thunder pieces are nice, same ones I got on the cleveland.

                      Moral of today: Nitto Tires and a gravel road do not mix. $18 in quarters later...

                      Pictures to follow.

                          I was getting ready to say you had balls of steel, albeit rather small, but still steel !!!

                            • Allen, did I really say "Man Up"? Nice work by the way, fuel lines and pretty regulator look great! I think maybe pushlock connectors and the blue hydraulic hose would have been easier to install
                              Looks like you have a long list of improvments going on....don't worry about where that check ball goes.....
                              Is CSTMWGN going in for body yet?

                              • Sometimes you get what you want,
                                Sometimes you get what you need,
                                But most of the time, you get what you deserve.
