I can put the fittings on the line, get Badbob to do the welding or have Kenny get you Jody Swing's number he can weld it also. Also you might want to put on a Depend's when you find out how much the hose and fittings are..:bigthumb:

Less than building another car. I did the transmission lines last week and it just seems like a good idea.

Why would you have to build another car because of radiator hoses?

When I shoot that 350 shot and blow the head gasket. It will pressurize the cooling system. The high pressure will blow off the hoses and the car will spin in it's own water right before it hits the wall.

good idea

Harry 03-21-2010 03:26 PM

Put better head gaskets on it then.

It has some. Never tried without. How does it work for you?

Harry 03-21-2010 04:08 PM

Never said try them without them. You obviously plan on blowing them out. So maybe you just need to rethink your processes.:joke: I think it would be a spectacular show. Carry on.

Safety first. Not many people going fast in SBFs haven't lifted the heads at on time or another. And maybe I'll go fast one day.

SBF's are slow...ask me how i know..

Get in touch with Jody Swing. He has one of the latest high frequency TIG machines that can do an awesome job on aluminum. Just PM me and I can give you his number if you haven't found someone to do it yet.
