Well we got the rubber fuel lines replaced that go up from the lower end of the frame - I don't quite understand why they ran stainless steel braided line to a hard line then switched to rubber why they just didn't run a hard line for the last few inches and let the SS Braided line be the flex portion or just use another SS flex line again... either way I'm pretty sure that the rubber lines were installed at the factory...
Reason I say this is because the clamps were the SS bands that are machine crimped and printed on the side of the rubber line was it's size of 7.94mm what using a standard 8mm line would be too big - I just can't see the 0.04mm being that big of a deal... either way we installed 5/16th line and she appears not to be leaking at the moment.
The trans slipped in fairly easy even for not having a clutch alignment tool - a few cuss words uttered and she slipped right in.
I can now cruise at or above 70 mph and not have to look at high rpms again
We backed her out of the garage and on to the street where I started to roast the tires then as I pulled away I did a full spool launch and ran through all the gear with my foot firmly planted to the carpet - Had to test it out - I mean if the weld job was gonna break I wanted it to break last night so that we would know if we were really done with the repair or not.
