There is a place in Orange called TMR. Take your broken stuff to them and they will make whatever it takes to do it right. They make hoses for aerospace, dragsters and racecars. Any size, color, material. When I was there I watched them making some pretty stuff.

Torino Motor Racing, Inc.
2346 Pacific St., Orange CA 92865 714 771 1348

Check them out....and they also have speed bleeders, etc. and their prices were more than competitive.

TITS gives them a





So close you could stop in at lunch time but call them first.

ha,
the vortech fuel management unit. (cheapest way)
core is 25"x8x3.5
walbro fuel pump 255lw or some crap, forgot
got the turbo from a friend, ultra nice and pretty, spools at 2500 and you can feel it at 3000
forgot the trim... find out later

i wish i can get the speed craft oil relocator though, the greddy one sucks. i had to end up "mcguiver'ing" a filter screen for the turbo cuz the oil line bends and hits the intake tube to it. Which is why it kept blowing the line because of the stressful bend.

but runs real nice for 3200$ compared to $6200 for Speed-craft, hehe

i'll have pics up soon
