Gee thanks guys haha good thing I only need to make like 5 double flares ughhhh

Click to expand...

If you have to make even one flare, I'd suggest that tool, it makes it that easy. It's almost as if your $100 bills get up and flare the brake line yourself while you sit on the couch and drink beer. It's one of those tools I bought to use once or twice and end up using it over and over and over. Definitely have gotten my money's worth from using it or renting it.

OK so I got a few pics to put up I got the trans in last night at 1130 that was "FUN".


Also in the pic you can see the new fuel lines I ran as well as the stainless brake line. I surprisingly enough had no problem with all my flares I needed to make which were 7. The hydraulic press was amazing made it to where a monkey could do it.

I ordered some 42 lb injectors and a 90 km lightning maf I don't have a pic of the mad but here's one of the injectors and fuel rail installed.



Also for anyone who hasn't seen it here's my rear end. Again lol.

Not much going on around here got my tires dismounted and sent out my injectors to get rebuilt and flow matched after I felt some of the pintle caps were pretty loose and filter were atrocious. Once I get my injectors back I'll be able to at least get some of this mess of a wiring system up.

Got a few more things done to the car. I received my radiator fans in from lmr which they look great love the aluminum case they have.

Also here is a better pic of what my belt routing looks like and everything.

Received a set of pbr brakes from mps auto salvage a nice 03/04 calipers and 13 inch rotors planning on powdercoating them later on down the road but for now I will be able to get them installed and start bleeding my brake lines.

Heres a pic with my 95 cobra r's around the rotors these things are huge!

They have no predators in our waters since in salt water sharks and things will eat them in fresh watee they wont survive so brackish its too fresh for sharks but rays are ok and they destroy the oyster beds and eats crabs and us marylanders love our crabs

No bull sharks in Maryland? In Fl bull and blacktips are super common in brackish estuaries and bayous.
