So far cooler than the rotary was. Going across town in similar ambients the tranny tunnel would burn with the rotary. Now its just really hot.

Actually, for weight reduction, I believe he used a innovative system of bendy-straws

cant believe i missed this, 10an feed 6an return, removed all hardlines incl rear brake. That is ran inside to the brake bias then to the rear T. Plan on a dual master locking hydro in the future.

@Black - Could you PM me with what exactly was done with/to that engine in order to know exactly how many reach arounds I owe Mark?

@Mark - Loving the hood man...forgot to mention that.

@Mark - Did you remove the Charcoal Cannister? So one line feeding up the underside of the car and the return running back? So 2 lines instead of 3?
