Racecraft said that when I got the bracket. I intend on adding 2 gussets per bracket.

New waterman fuel pump just showed up, I'll snag some pics tonight....

The old aeromotive red pump pumps 6 gallons of fuel per minute
Aermotive atomic pump pumps 12 gallons of fuel per minute
Waterman pump pumps 19 gallons of fuel per minute

Still need the Moran 500# injectors to go ontop of my 225s and a wideband upgrade from Joe O.

Did you mention something about selling your radiator ? I'd be interested if so.

Got the intercooler pipe welded and almost all of the cutting done on the rear end. Just need to grab some 3/16" plate and start making the gussets/patch pieces. Will post some pics this afternoon.

No worries Phil, just busting your ***** a bit. I hope I don't **** you off since I'll be picking your brain (hopefully) when I start my build.

Waterman fuel pump mount, need to make a .550 driveshaft for it here shortly. 19gpm pump

Charge pipe done, welded on the blow off flanges

Working on the rear end, Madman got me hooked up with some racecraft arms and brackets for the top side and Team Z on the bottom side. The bottom brackets were orginally 3" ID now they are 1.400" ID.

With stuff like that on the car you're got about the closest thing to a 4 link you can end up with.

Very nice.

I know this is a random question, I see you have one of the Craftsman racing jacks. Have you ever had it not pump up? I have one and it quit working on me the other day, you can tighten it, but doesn't do anything. Have you had any problems with it?
