I saw this stuff all over the Speed World Challenge pits at Longbeach. Probably a good sign you are on the right track!

i'm trying to figure out how many feet i need. it comes in 30ft rolls but the amount needed is going to be deceptive. i'm thinking 2 rolls should do it.

Bruce, I guess I can say keep you head up, but you've been thru this before and know how to handle these mishaps...

Anyways, best of luck like always and keep it up!!

Cobb is absolutely IMO the best aftermarket company I have ever delt with. There customer service and attention to detail is second to no-one!

Glad to hear things are coming together for you Bruce!

I'm surprised your having problems with the Fumoto valve. I've got it on all my cars (nipple type) and I haven't leaked a drop. I'm guessing it's just the oil psi of your motor. :/

i was surprised too, but that's what phil is telling me. i don't have a undertray with the gt spec brace and we speculate that it got jostled somehow. it's not the first time it's happened with a fumoto. another member doing autox a couple years back had a cone open his. it is remote but it can happen. i like the valve otherwise.

There is no oil pressure in the oil pan -- at least, there had better not be!

Thats good news about the heads so at least your moving on up (insert The jefferson's theme song here). However I can't believe someone would eff with your engine just simply because of you voicing your concerns and having had a few disagreements. Definitely a dick move on jeremy's part but normally people named jeremy are awesome... take me for example. *Flexes muscles*
