    Yeah, I think it scared him away when I duck tape(we'll call it 100mph tape so it is less offensive) my fuel pressure gauge to his winshield.....I offered to duck tape his filter and his dash too....lol.... then a spare roll for the ride home in case anything else came loose....I guess it is funnier for me since I saw the look on his face when I pulled out the "100mph" tape. Ray has a gorgious car so he seemed pretty offended that words even left my mouth. He was a bit tired too so he stalled-out for a minute trying to digest what I was about to do.

    Rick forgot to tell everyone his blowing my boost switch. He said he was good for 2 psi, but never really got there. I suggested that he try sucking.

    Total fail.....blowin' switches, blowin' radiators, and the car still wouldn't cooperate....

    So, I think the only way to satisfy that 419 is to put a GT50 on that huffer....67's are for v-6's and stock 5.3 trucks.
