Dan... Take the shaft from your shift or a spare if you got one... Cut the ball out of the shaft... Drill 2 holes centered in the ball... Press fit or tap the holes with aluminum shafts... Also make the top rod 1/2in shorter and the bottom 1/4 in longer... You now have a light weight short throw shifter... Good day sir...

Did you ever shorten your throttle cable? 500 miles and mine is still holding up great...

I have an RS rear arm rest I can sell you Dan, they are pretty rare, so I think $500 is a good price........

I'm not a fan of them. I like the arm rest. There are a few things I will not get rid of

here is part of my fuel system. custom built twin E85 450 pumps. it is causing a little controversy over on FB but its all for guys looking out for each other. no harm taken. anyways these have been run before so i am not to worried about it. i built my own bulk head fittings with bigger ID and true -6 AN. which then go's to my ''Y'' then to -8 to the rail.






i bought a new hanger ring and i thought i bought new SS nuts for the hanger but they showed up in Titanium. i wont complain but it was not meant to be like that.

No I haven't. My 255s were touching without an issue. Why would you recommend one and where do I find something like that in the event I need it.

OK I have spent almost 2 days looking for this damn part. It is an aftermarket syphon that replaces the stock one. I saw it once and would like to read up on it. I thought SARD made it but I am having no luck. Does anyone know what I am talking about or can lead me in the right direction.

Dan,

I am talking about when the pumps are right next to each other, they are touching, so I am suggesting that you run some type of insulator, like a piece of rubber, that way contact vibrations between the pumps is minmized. I know it sounds like over kill.. but I am thinking of harmonics of the motors inside the pumps, interfereing with eachother , because the housings are touching...

Do you see what I mean ? If not then excuse me as I have been on pain meds for the last few days and could be quite delusional.

I cant imagine the harmonics messing with one another but rubbing in the future could trash one or both pumps...

Ps dan... I bowled an 89 this weekend ... Beat that!!!
