The switch may give me away unless I can hide it somewhere.
I've got my eyes on some rubber that should improve my tracton.

tire ....... rubber working now

I'll let you know about the progress and holler when I need help. You can also come over and make the last connection and throw the switch!
Thanks for the offer to help!

No Problem...
what we usually do as part of our Lincoln LS club meeting at John-Eagle (YEAH - where they have the Aston-Martins!!!) is find out who needs something done on their car and do it as part of the meeting... Sonny, the owner, allows us to use a lift, and tools if needed... even "borrowed" a tech for a question or two ! NIce people over there!
we've done reverse sensors, cat-back exhaust, porterfield brakes, etc...
Nothing MAJOR, but it's nice to have a lift and certified tech right there !
AND they buy us pizza and soft drinks !!!

I was wondering if you guys are planning on running distilled water. I've traveled around the country, and have seen some serious mineral deposites from hard water in diffrent places. I was just wondering if this would affect cylinder wear? your thoughts/ opinions would be greatly appreciated Jerry. I have been wanting to put a water injection on for months, but being miltary means I dont make as much $$$$ as some of you,so I'm very interested in the make it yo self kit.

the pump,
the pressure switch (from an old NOS nitrous kit)
the nozzle (a NOS Fogger nozzle)
a micro switch to insure full throttle only operation
A tank picked out, ineed to go by my friend's Hot Rod shop and see how much and buy it.
A bunch of misc fittings
A close by hardware store.
I will work on it some this weekend!

On the distilled water, I think you may be on to something. I will try to use that. Some people use windshield washer fluid. It may be cheaper than distilled water and has alcohol content.
