it was not sending fluid to the pump i guess because it was making the infamous whinning noise. it also would just spit the fluid out of the breather hole.

Thanks man. I positive there aren't any black ones left, last one sold a few months ago. There might be a polished one left, PM Marty_G.

RRYDE put in some serious work in Dal's engine bay the past several weeks. Came out awesome. Stopped by RRYDE alley last week to do a quick shoot of Dal's bay before the Motion Auto Show. A few "firsts" in this engine bay...look closely. I have a feeling we'll see some of these mods in other bays (you'll surely see one of them in mine...). Came out AWESOME, nice job Randy, Marty, and Dal (and others who helped)!

Thanks Ray, but I actually had absolutley nothing to do with the valve cover covers. Dallas had those made on his own over a year ago back home.

If you actually look closer, there are 3 NRG tanks being used.


Thanks for the pics Marcus !

Oh damn, didn't realize the catch can was an nrg tank. At first, i thought it was a mishmoto tank. Great idea on that one Randy! I bet it's a whole lot easier emptying out that catch can.
