reminds me of my best friends from high school, of whom i was also in a band with for over 5 years. all they do on the weekends is go out and drink. they always want me to go, and i told them i don't like to go out and drink, but that's all they ever want to do. i rarely hang out with them...

i've got MSD wires. i've got a wicked miss at idle, but throughout the rest of the rpm band, it doesn't miss a beat. the miss could very well be from my plugs being very fouled. (i'm running very, very rich at the moment). i also run autolite 3923 coppers gapped to .30 -shaeff

after you blow it up. (we all gotta learn somehow;)) you have to post pics of how badly you exploded it. ;) -shaeff

maybe you never asked! ;) and that's my pic from when i did my build! :) nice to see it's out and around, and that it helped you! -shaeff

my best wishes, will. -shaeff

i brought the rim to two different places today, and nobody wants anything to do with it. so far, not so good. the garage i brought them to already mounted the other three tires and balanced them, so if i get a new rim, it's a crapshoot at matching the color. that's going to drive me insane. :(...

yeah, lagged said he might have a hookup for me, so i'll see how that turns out. :) thanks for the responses thus far! -shaeff

i'll keep my 2lb heater core for those chilly summer nights. it's not like it weighs alot... and it helps cool down between runs at the track, too. ;) -shaeff

they're called cove washers. -shaeff

yes, all the rust will eventually be taken care of. exterior first, as that's the worst of it. the underhood stuff is surface rust, and can easily be fixed. and i have mine strapped to the brake booster. -shaeff

haha. i sure hope so. (laughing at the old woman part) so i just called the garage back, and the crack is close to where the bead seals on the tire. i think i'm going to try to get it welded. at least for now. i'm running low on funds as of late, and unless i get a wicked deal on another...

ah hell. :( i was so excited today, too. now it's raining and i'm angry. i was really looking forward to my new rim/tire combo. i wonder how good the chances are of finding a single MKIV rim for sale. :( -shaeff

so, some time ago i picked up a set of MKIV TT rims. i just got my tires delivered today, and i brought them along with the rims to a reputable shop in my town to be mounted and balanced. apparently, one of the rear (9.5" wide) rims is cracked and will not hold air. is there any way to fix...

i hosted a pic of how mine's set up in this thread: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13123&highlight=catch -shaeff

info copy and pasted from: http://www.mkiiitech.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=306 and no, you can't use the LEX afm on an N/A. -shaeff

as IHI said, if it'll rev while in neutral and not under load, it's probably a huge IC/piping leak. you could disconnect the CSI from the fuel rail and stick the fuel pressure gauge there temporarily. -shaeff

i'll surely let you know over the summer, when i get my aftermarket gauges installed. (one of which will be oil temp) for reference sake, i'm running an 11x8 B&M supercooler, and a B&M 180* thermostat, along with a filter relocation kit. :) -shaeff
