I'm not sure yet. I need to test fit them and make sure i don't need to cut them down. Once they fit I may see if I can have them expanded at the ends or put a bead on them. Or maybe I'll try them first, I just got some T-Clamps!

Word New Parts!


THIS IS WHERE I PRACTICED WELDING WITH A CRESENT WRENCH WHEN IT TAPPED THE POSITIVE POST WHILE TIGHTENING THE NEGATIVE POST! BZZZZZZZZZ

Dear Silverofs,

I got the battery from Batteries Plus at 3300 S 293 E Salt Lake City, UT for the price of $99. They don't sell the SAE terminals so I bought some from Pep Boys ($3) that have female threads so they can be screwed unto a post. I then drilled all the way through the lead terminal with a 1/4" drill and mounted them with 6mm bolts from Lowes.

Word.

Rob,

Why can't you put a bead on these beautiful Stainless Steel pipes. Could you do Aluminum... with a TIG, the same TIG could do the stainless...

Dear Jared,

Beads on piping are done with a bead roller. NOT A T.I.G.
That stainless is too thick to roll through the beading machine!!

Tarzan Yamada ...


so this was the Super Street time attack at Buttonwillow?

I LOVE that track! They ran the same configuration as we ran when Jake and I went down there with Racerfactory:


Since Tarzan was driving a lowly NA S2000, I'm not surprised you beat him. It's a beautiful S2000 though:


Tarzan took 2nd last year. What time did you run?
