Chuckathon: Help Chuck get back onto the Dragstrip

Damon or Chuck can ether of you post some pics of the header collectors that blowen473 gave you I would like to see how the evac is welded in it.I need to weld one in my headers just want to make sure I am on the right track.

Thanks Jim

Not the same collectors but very similar, here's a few pictures of mine when I first put it together.

Thanks Damon that is what I was thinking would it be to much trouble to see what degree it is set at and post it it looks to be aroung 45* it is sitting just want it to pull good.

Thanks Jim

Yep, they are cut at a 45 degree angle for welding into your collectors. Best place to place them is on top however that's just not possible in a Fox Body

Damon

Damon,
I can fix you up with a fuel pressure gauge as well. I've got an Autometer Sport Comp with the isolator and the hoses, etc. I'll bring it to the tech seminar if you want it. Let me know.

Sure thing, bring it and if we can't use it, I'll send it back. That goes for all donations

Thanks guys!

Thanks Damon for the info on the evac tube mine will have to be in the side as they are tucked tight under the cab for ground clearance

Ward,

Need one?

Are you guys (you and Cole) going to the tech seminar?

any updates yet

Snow........

Chuck said he's going to drop the rear out of the old car tomorrow.

Just happened across this and figured i would ask if you guys are still taking donations?
I dont have much but i doubt i will be on the track anytime soon so maybe some of my money can go elsewhere to someone that can put it to use soon.
