One step closer on my race car

We finished hooking up the lines and bled the brakes last night.. Bench bled the MC first of course. It's a PITA to get fluid down into totally dry lines, I had to resort to my mitivac vacuum pump to pull it thru.

One sound you never want to hear when bleeding the brakes.. The sudden squish sound of a MC going dry :\ Just finished bleeding all of the brakes, and started on the rears, and sure enough, the rear part of the MC went dry. ****! Had to go thru bleeding the bastard all over again. Ugh.

But, it's done. It's now drivable. Off to the exhaust shop now!

You trailering it to the shop? Not driving it, you'll be missing out on all the fun of the deafening noise and constant anxiety of police presence
