If you don't have a 3/8 drill bit, you should probably get one for this
project and future projects as well.
If you look at the upper right hand corner in the picture on this link,
you'll see the jumper. It's pretty simple and I think it will be easy to
duplicate... http://www.madelectrical.co

Thanks Herb,
I can agree that it's better not to have solder connections down

starter, instead of using a piece of heavy wire, get a small piece of steel
and drill the necessary holes and trim/cut/file the piece to the desired

I've heard stories where guys would coil up fuel line inside the fuel tank and
then run it all through the roll cage so that it's super long and has that much
more fuel. I also heard a story that they would check the size of only one
cylinder, so they would make all the rest bigger except that o
I always thought that was an impressive
"trick". Not to mention all the other bending of the rules by Smokie.

Just when I thought they were working, I found a puddle of fluid under the
rear end. It seems it is coming from the tee there. All new lines and the
tee with the block is braided. Any ideas what to do first?? I have tried
loosening the connections and re-tightning them. It leaks while just

One quickly realizes that by the time you have lugs big enough to fit
your 10 or 12 gauge wire, they are long enough to touch each other, so
your wire has to be a bit of a loop (which you can aim downward away

you will need:
