Maybe we should have an “emergency contact” number in our profile or something? Just a thought.
Are you sure it’s not leaking at the fuel line? I had a new Carter pump recently where the threads were not cut deep enough, so the fuel line nut...
Dang. That sucks. I’ve been a happy Summit customer for years. Maybe you caught the wrong person, on a bad day. I’d send that whole mess back.
Catfish are traditional. They have been around since waaaaaay before 1965. I’m looking forward to seeing this project.
This is the group I hang out with. We drove these cars together up from Florida both last year and this year. [ATTACH]
Yep, I spent a couple hours watching them. It was the first time I had seen them. What a blast. I highly recommend going to one of their races if...

Mine goes to the yard waste place every couple of weeks or so. [ATTACH]
I went to that auction about 30 years ago. It was huge back then. Looks like it still is.
Not a custom, but this is my daily driver, including to work. It has AC, for the brutal summer months here in Florida.[ATTACH]
I’ve never seen intake bolts leak that much.

I have one of those too. Four years and 16,000 miles on it with zero problems.
That is awesome! It looks like it hasn’t changed a bit!
It stays the same
Noise and a rough ride is part of the experience. It’s worth it to me.
