Default Question for Bob @ EPP

I was driving my car a couple months ago at 35mph & hit a patch of spilled paint & slid off the road & hit a pole broadside. My question is, should I send the blower in for a check-up? I just had it rebuilt (impeller, seals & bearings) prior to winning the open road race in June, but I'm wondering if the bearings took a hit. It seemed to run OK afterwards, but the car was totaled so all I did was pull it on & off my trailer a couple times.

I also plan to call you Monday to order a Vic Jr intake for my replacement car. Can you look into which elbow will work best with a 78mm TB & fit under a 2000 TA ram air hood.

Thanks!

Mark

Hey Bob,

If you see this before you call me back, add some billet fuel rails to my order. Whether it's FAST or Aero or that other brand you sell, I need the entire setup, flow thru, with hardware....and I have the ATI gauge that hooks up to the shrader valve, so if that won't work I'll need a new one.

One more "if you see this before you call me back Bob".....

I want to order some Kooks 1 7/8" headers with O2 bungs too. Can you get the new Jet Hot Extreme Sterling coating that is rated at 1700*, or will I need to get that myself? I saw an add in National Dragster (got a $50 off coupon for it) & from what I have read it sounds like what I want, depending on what you think & how much it costs of course.

I don't want to hold up the Vic Jr or FMIC shipping, but I do want to get them too. Thanks.

Mark
