There's no fucking way you can make a nice TIG weld with an electrode the size of a cordless drill in your hand...pass
Right, so if the pump is "pushing" wouldn't it be ideal to have it "push" the shortest distance possible? Considering, as someone else stated,...
I would move it closer to the engine. Your pump will have all the fuel pressure in the line from the volume of fuel in the tank but will have to...
I did a disc swap on my 9" because it was cheaper than replacing all the beat up drum brake shit. Does that make me a Street Rodder with a trailer...

Nope to the wood grenade. Close though...conical
I'm looking for a CONICAL spike and I want it to match the OD of the tube, which is 1 3/4".
