Re: "Rice Rocket'
 

got my last brake line bent, tomorow im making a trip over the mtn down the vally and up the mtn to get it flared LOL

And crap, I just forgot to do my spanish homework, get this our workbook is on the INTERNET!! Makes it easy to forget and harder to do in class last minute :mm:

Re: "Rice Rocket'
 

Ok, was hoping to get my lines flared today but my gf's mom got hit my a drunk driver pulling out of her work today....black man with 2 white woman and probably a 2 or 3 year old little boy...I everyone was ok I guess, they arrested the guy for dui and I think they wanted him for something else too? Her mom is ok she went to the hospital just in case (across the street from where she works lol). But I guess her vans totaled it shoved the rear axle back or broke it 1?

Dad rented me a flaring tool kit from autozone, 32$ ima buy one next time im at northern tool for $20

Re: "Rice Rocket'

Re: "Rice Rocket'
 

Ok, I got the motor broke in today!! Got a video (short) on my phone imma try to post it, anyone know how? I upload via memory chip in my phone...Idk i'll try It sounded good!

To do still:

adj. carb.

Brakelines
bleed brakes

HOPEFULLY I get done by sat. nite so i can go to town! :)

Re: "Rice Rocket'
 

Looking good man, cant wait to start on mine. For my truck, Im going big block though.

thanks!

Re: "Rice Rocket'
 

looks good now we need to see big side weiw and other shots

Re: "Rice Rocket'
 

The MC that is on the truck should already have a 10# residual valve in the rear (small bowl) section. No "1 way valve on the rear" is needed.

Re: "Rice Rocket'
 

HAHA, I need something good on gas for a while, now eventually Ill do a v8 conversion on it, but not for awhile.

Re: "Rice Rocket'
