well due to my brake downs, I punched my steering wheel, ended up ******* up the horn somehow, I didn't even punch the horn. just the center. kept honking as I was driving, had to pull over after a bunch of other cars started honking as I was sitting at the light, Pulled the wire on the horns, back to no horns.

I do think I may have figured out the issue though. I'm not saying anything yet I don't want to jinx it.

Somtimes my car pisses me off, but I still love her. She cut me yesterday, so I punched her today. we still love eachother though.

That's kind of how Stephanie and I get along...She doesn't beep though...I'm just kidding. In any event, the horn should only be a positive and a negative wire that come together at a pressure switch.

Fixed the horn and dropped the jet sizes a bit to make it more exhaust friendly...fireballs are cool and all but they just look like dollar signs wafting out into the wind to me.

Cool

Got a Nikki rebuild kit from Atkins, disassembled my YawNikki Carb and found out why it was flooding. float settings were all wrong. Added new components, put it on the car and it fills the to half glass....perfect.
FB runs like a champ again!
Received camber plates for the FC yesterday, need to install those in the next week or so.
