Re: PO has me PO'd

Just had a couple minutes to post up picks of a couple tools I just bought one is a pusher for barbed hose connectors, the other is the hose clamps I will be using on my radiator hoses

The other pic is of the electrical mess I have to straighten out, and mount my computers in the glovebox

LOL, yeah, I guess that does look like a lot of wire, but that"s not my problem, I have a schematic which shows wire color and pin location. My problem is learning my laptop/tablet, but we'll see if I can figure that part out

The reason for fuel injection is steep incline and decline, the ones where you only see sky, and your butt tightens. Don't know of a old school carb, that can handle that, but I may be wrong

Thanks for watching, Richard

Ordered my rubber isolation mounts from Mc Master Carr, will be here tomorrow

Waiting on my other 4 core rad. mount

thanks for stopping by, yeah, I agree love the look of the TPI intake, might buy the kit to straighten out the runners. Progress is ALWAYS slow for me, to many irons in the fire. I'll have to check out your build thread
