Oh noes!!!!!

Now you've gone and done it. My PMS has kicked in hard and I will not be sleeping until I get an FRX too.

Excellent writeup on the installation. How much was the FRX?

Is there a provision to adjust the fuel pressure in your new FPR housing?

Nice bit of kit, Clay!!

The fuel pressure is none adjustable, but is pre "shimmed" so that it will keep you in the optimal range.

Sorry to hijack, but wanted to ask Clay when his website will be operational? Back on topic. This is an amazingly simplistic looking way to make a major improvement! I've looked at other kits and it seemed they would be very detailed and time consuming for a simpleton like myself. This kit seems like it would be something I could tackle. Nice job Clay!! I really can't wait to see the website and spend some money!

I have always wanted to do something like this and it figures that Clay would come up with an easy way to make it happen. Maybe after I order it from Clay and get it, it MIGHT motivate me to install it along with the soft HPX I bought from him and heck, I might even replace that bad glow plug in #7 while I am in there.

Keith, reps sent for the good write up.

Dang it Mike, you could've done it last week! I guess that's what happens when you get there at the beginning of the week when there aren't many people around. I wasn't even planning on one, but I asked Clay what he had with him that I didn't know about. He says, "I got this new FRx and I'll even put it on for ya." Twist my arm why don't ya.

Does this mod improve the #8 injector contribution?

Yes -- that's a big part of it...It gets rid of the dead-head issue.

You know I,m kicking myself in the butt. O well, no biggie, with your nice writeup, I'll be doing mine once these new bills get paid off that rolled in while I was down there . Its not hard to get your arm twisted around here, thats for sure..

FRX equalizes fuel to each head and cures the lean issues that the #8 injector has.

HPX equalizes oil between the heads.

Both reduce cackle.. Nice mods to get taken care of before you mod.

Any idea on where you are going with the turbo? Give me a shout if you have any questions..

That's got to be the funniest and most surreal quote I've seen here yet. You gotta mod before you do the mods.
