    @lotzagoodstuff The pump (9-250) is an inline by design and came with the frame mount, we'll see! If ya look up a couple posts, You'll see it mounted. Honestly, with 5 PSI of head and a bypass regulator designed for 1000hp, plenty of fuel will be ripping through it I'd doubt cooling will be...

    I have the new transfer pump ordered. It's just a Facet cube with check valve. The possibility exists to back flow from the rear to the front if the rear tank is full.

    I agree with Wes. If the starting aid system is in good shape, then the controller should come on for a period (time dependent on temperature), then start to click to maintain the temperature of the plugs until the engine is started. The controller measures resistance as a function of current...

    Unfortunately, the running boards had been in place since new and we're seriously falling apart. Large holes had formed and large passengers had deformed them over the years. They were not high quality by any stretch of the imagination. Cosmetically, she's losing the silly handles on the B and...

It's capable of developing 14 inHg in 2 seconds, 20 inHg in 4 seconds starting at atmosphere with a minimum of...

I figured what's the worst that can happen. I can always abandon it! Introduction: The name is Ken, the wife and I live in...
