Re: '72 Drop member... "Betty"

Clearing the wood last few nights. Have to clear it, sand it . Clear it, sand it like 5-6 times in order to get it smooth. It's a pain but should look killer when finished. Also this is where the accuair will go

Thank you. I was going to stain it black until my wonderful wife said "why don't you match it to the tailgate trim?"

Brake and fuel lines look nice & clean. You'll be rolling before you know it.

Hmm... That's pretty cool. Do you mind sharing how the connection was made from the tube to the filter? How does it stay in place?

Re: '72 Drop member... "Betty"

Hey Seth,

They show a high performance 12" that is a straight blade draws 25 amps and rated for 1600 cfm's. Is that what's in your set up? Are they loud, and do they move a lot of air? I'm looking to just put two fans to the factory 4 core radiator with no shroud.

Thanks, Wade
