Thank you!
If you want a keychain they are pretty cheap and are available at ExtremePSI (www.extremepsi.com) - they've been my go-to on everything from my PT76GTS to my 4" Mandrel Bends, to everything else and really hooked me up.

Updateeeeee







How bad-*** does that look? So old school muscle car style!

What happens when you accidentally go over a speed bump too fast? Any risk a shearing off those fittings?

See below

A few updates!

I went up today and pulled the car out of the garage with my landrover and moved it across the street where our buddy (thanks chris!) let us use his water supply to pressure wash the engine bay. I degreased the crap out of everything and sprayed it clean. My ABS modulator is supposed to be silver?! Oh... haha. Anyway, it doesn't look clean in the cell phone pic but it definitely is. I am going to use Jays suggestions in the next week or so in order to get ready to paint it. It should turn out really good. Going to be black satin with matching powdercoated radiator support which I already posted!

Before:




After:




Heres the sump from behind on the street:




and here you see its not really that low - about 8.5" off the ground



At least its pretty!


Enjoy

Looks awesome. I use home depot brass because those anodized AN fittings are outrageously expensive
