Hot Rods XO/PP Bonneville project

That is what I use for a failure resistant install.

EDIT: Note - RTV can render any exhaust A/F sensors useless. If you have exhaust EGO sensors better stay away from red RTV.

 

Russ, no recommendation on a filter, it’s just common to go from a pump thru a filter to the main engine gallery.

I installed a screen in the suction from the pan to the pump to catch “ the big chunks” and Joe always complained about it as he saw it as a restriction. I still use the screen device since it was my oil pan. It’s in a -12 line.
Thanks for the compliments but you guys have skills way beyond mine. I just hate to see an engine hurt because I missed something or just didn’t know…..

 

I have screens in the pan and a filter in the return to the oil tank. Appreciate your input.

 

@john mullen , do you have any more VA HAMB team T-shirts for sale? Size Large?

 

Sorry no large

 

I'm saddened to say that I Won't be going to Speed Week this year. I'm tending to my wife who has Altimers.
However Dave Russell And the crew Will be going. I know they will do what needs to be done and I will be in contact with them as needed.
I want to thank the Crew for representing Team 640 withought me at the helm. We have a great crew chief with Rick Steiner and the crew will be at 110 percent as usual.
Thank you guys
John

 

Good luck to the crew!
Keep us in the loop.

 

Sorry to hear about your wife. Dementia in all forms is a terrible, terrible disease. My thoughts are with you in this difficult time for the both of you.

 

John, all the best to you. I know it’s a challenge.

 

John, I can commensurate. Going on ten years. Hang in there, and don't let yourself get run down.

Ben

 

Good luck to your team sir. I will keep you and your family in my prayers tonight.

 

Family First, John. All the Best to and your Wife, Carp.

 

Thank you

 

Happy 4th to all those here on the H.A.M.B. As well as those who follow team 640.

 

We're ready to go ... and we got a new (used) trailer.

 

The open or the box?

 

Actually both, but we're taking the red enclosed.

 

I hope the trailer tires hold up better this trip! Good Luck guys!!!

 

I got a text today and they are in Wyoming should be in Salt Lake by this evening.

 

Godspeed, Dave, Dan, & the rest of the team.

 

Dan is not along with the crew this year. But is cheering them on from VA!

 

They just crossed into Utah. Bonneville tomorrow evening

 

Good luck!!!
