Don't know what that was all about. :P


That's not all that ghetto. Yeah, the parts are cheap, but it looks like you spent good quality workmanship in putting it together. Still the most ghetto of all setups was Danny's (jbwelder). He was hacking up is cross member with a grinder and had his oil pan off, shooting the sparks right into his rods/crank/girdle. We got there to help with the install and he was puzzled when we asked what he was using for "fuel management". lol. He said, "I didn't know I needed that" lol.
