Hey man, I got it off of Ebay for like $7. It's called a Metric Tee M10 M10X1 Female Fitting Brass Brake Oil Fuel Water Air Gas M566. They are M10x1 bubble flares. The other adapter was a little tougher to find, it's M12x1 female to M10x1 male. That one I also got off ebay but it was from south of Norway lol.

Got the new front and rear suspension setup installed. Will need to adjust the ride height in the front but looking forward to seeing what this setup can do.

I decided to try the 3 way adjustable Comp Engineering shocks with my Vogland springs in the rear and Strange Engineering single adjustable coil overs with 300lbs springs in the front.

Will be doing a video on the front coil over install.






Replaced the reman PWR STR pump because it started leaking while being parked.





It needs a hood now.

Got the coil overs adjusted nicely for street driving. Need some fresh fuel and touch up on the tune, then will make some test hits to see how the suspension setup is working.

I'm ordering a VFN Sunoco wide smooth version of their cowl hood. I should hear back on how long the wait time will be. It will be hinged but I'll be doing away with the front latch and just use hood pins. At least that is the plan.

Order placed with VFN, looking at 9 to 10 weeks before it ships!


Looking at running a pair of these on the front of the hood without the latch assembly.

Took the car out for some WOT pulls and it was breaking up really bad (like a cracked spark plug). Upon inspection, I found that the crank shaft sensor wiring had touched one of the primaries on the passenger header. Quick and easy fix thankfully lol.
