A few things I've done to advance the Re-Speed line
I'm probably going to be the first to buy the SA tank once you get it done as I said a few times. As long as it can handle FI on a huge motor and has a sump for external fuel pumps, I will be on it like crazy.

I that is a bit odd, the service I ship through is suppose to take 4 business days, i checked a few tracking number and everything else has seemed to take about that. It doesn't help that I sent it out on a Saturday night and they wouldn't of processed it till Monday sometime.
We're sorry about that, I'll try to maybe set up a UPS account for you US guys if it makes it any better.

The first tank is most likely sold to ourxseven as he's the one that supplied me with a SA tank.

I just received some bad new about Tokico Shocks, everything has gone up almost 20$ per part :S ... I can take the hit on a few things would be just a slight increase, but the HP shocks are more for me to buy them now then I have listed on the website!!!
They're saying that may be because of all the craze thats going on out there, everything else is still at normal price though.
So I apologize in advance for those going up in price shortly. This will be seen on everyone's website selling these shocks and not just ours just so you guys know.

Did you buy ReSpeed from Billy Sam?
New parts are looking good. I *may* have a decent condition FB tank sitting around that you could use to have scanned. I'll have to look around my grandpa's barn next time I'm out that way.

Will you be putting a threaded port in them for a water temp sensor? a 3/8 NPT would work well. I used an old school aluminum one that had the flat spot on top to drill and tap for a sensor. Sure would be nice to have an after market one when needed.
Sam,
I love your enthusiasm with the new venture. It's nice to see someone who is very particular about their work taking over for Billy. Respeed has always put out fantastic products, and it's nice for once to see a company change hands without detriment to its products or customers.
Do you still offer the intake manifold heat shield for the stock 12A manifold? It is the heat shield that has the little dip in the middle to fit under the ACV port? I found the flat version on the website, but I can't find the offset version for the stock manifold. I was going to order one for my 1985 GS.
Thanks,
Jamie

I can certainly make 2 versions of it, one with and one without that bung.
I just thought you meant that you had just put in the order and it didn't go through.

Sam was the perfect choice. He has already improved the product line and I am sure will for years to come.

gently tap it side to side with a soft mallet, it is press fitted in. do not tap on it with the oil cap on, it will break and plastic pieces will fall in your engine. (ask me how i know) haha
Sam,
Do you still offer the heat shield for stock intake manifolds? The one that has the dip in the middle? I want to order one, but can't find it on the website. I helped Billy develop it a couple of years ago. See picture.
