    Just chop up the fuel line and use a metal piece and 2 rubber connectors. Fixed.

    I'll see what I can find out. I just have my stock battery mounting in place.

    I'm didn't see anything about things like air intakes needing to be secured, etc...

    Just looked, and my 'neutral safety switch' is an issue. I'll have to read up on that. Car starts with clutch engaged or not.

    I will be making my best attempt to go. I had a bit of an issue with my car tonight that I don't want to talk about because it made me angry and it's stupid and embarassing, but my car should at least get me to work and back fine. Undecided if I want to race or not.

    i would hate to have your drag strip. Both dragstrips by my house has no inspection at all. You pull up get your number and race.

    I would rather have a car thats safe than some backyarder who has no clue or is rushed for time and takes shortcuts, then either his car breaks doing a run and he crashes and kills himself or someone else. They stopped one guy for having slicks on aftermarket wheels and he barely had any thread showing on the nuts!

    Yes, and even though good vehicles like Simon's van can make a mess, a poorly maintained vehicle is more likely to oil down a track and ruin it for everyone.

    Cool Re: The Flying Tool Shed goes 13.7@96 mph!!!!!!!!!!!

    This has to do with the alky-water injection kit that was in one of Simons prior replys. I know this is a ford business, but I e-mailed them and they said there Mr. Freeze kit will work on any car, truck, etc. The price of the kit is around $180.00. When I get the money I want two of those kits to run on booth my cars. The web site is- www.andersonfordmotorsport.com.

    Best of luck to you Simon... I see we have another alcoholic!

    Once you run alky, you will wonder why you never used it before! Honestly, alcohol was made for turbo's!!
    May the God's be with you're drive train.
