Yes I think I am going to leave it in there. Right now I have to work on my tune to get this running good after I swapped my intake. The previous tune was bandaided because I had a major vacuum leak. Now I have no leak so it is running pretty rich.

Wow man. That's terrible.

Did you by chance not tighten down your fuel rail properly after the intake swap? I'm asking because I had an engine fire when the passenger side rail lifted off the injectors once. Engine heat ignited the fuel instantaneously.

Regardless of the cause, sorry that happened to you...

I don't know what happened, smelled fire so I pulled over. In 2 minutes the front end was flaming pretty good. What sucks is I had to stand there and watch it burn till the fire department got there 10 minutes later.

Reminds me I need to check on the fire extinguishers in our cars.
I know my 87 doesn't have one yet.
Gotta keep one in your cars guys.
I know from experience that when you need one, you are glad you had it.
