What type of hose is that from the pumps up to the distribution block?

It's just a new design from the old rubber hose. Racetronix and others carry it.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Sticking with the manual? (Pun intended)

Keep plugging away!

For now Mike. I'm hoping that being in better shape helps with everything. I'm down 50lbs from last year, and feeling better. I'm still going to be sore after a day of racing, I just hope I'm not down for 3-4 days afterwards.


Probably just going to put the 4.11's back in a spin the bitch as high as the turbine will let me. @ 6800 they are good for 137mph - might as well set that as the 1st goal.

No progress to report, I've been working on the honey do list. Got to keep the wife happy.
We have been looking for a new daily driver for me. The 03 escape I'm driving is just about dead. We have narrowed it down to a 2017 Ford Escape se awd and Honda CRV lx awd. The Honda is the responsible decision but the ford is more fun to drive, the 2.0 turbo puts out 245/270. The crv has a cvt and it feels like a rubber band. The crv has a turbo option but you have to go to a higher trim level to get it, and you get all of Honda "safety" crap - lane assist, adaptive cruise and so on. The turbo is quicker but the software seems to delay throttle input to smooth things out and improve fuel economy. Still up in the air - the escape puts a smile my face driving - but I know the Honda is just a better vehicle. Ford has some good incentives and Honda doesn't have any.

If the ford is more fun I don't even see why you would consider the other one. Why would you add a non fun vehicle you would dread driving?
