RE: ChevyKiller - The Resurrection!
With all the weight you've dropped and moved to the rear, you might need some wheelie bars.
Make sure someone gets some nice video of your first launch.
Do you still have the passenger side airbag in there? I'd consider ditching that anchor.

I would seriously like to know how to make this work? That's a simple way to drop almost 100 lbs off the car. Would just putting a check valve on the vent tube be satisfactory? I'm sure i'd get a constant check engine light, but I don't care. I had no idea that stuff was that heavy.
I just need to know what psi check vavle i need?

We took out all of the emmisions stuff under the spare tire well and just for giggles, I put the stuff on the scale. Are you ready for this? 98 lbs! (This was just the emissions crap under the spare tire well alone!) Now this is designed to trap the vapor from your gas tank when it heats up while off and running and prevent raw fuel from venting to the atmosphere so for me it was a no brainer cause I am doing a return fuel system but it might not be an 'easy' mod for anyone else as you are using your stock gas tank - you would want an alternative way to vent your gas when it expands...

The secret is to make sure you run your vent tube facing 'up' - then curlie cue it down. This is the way to go on ANY vent system. Otherwise, you run the risk of leaking fuel at times. I did it this way off the fuel cell.

You'd have to see it to believe it and I encourage anyone to stop by if they are local and check it out but trust me, they do some bad **** builds. I have met 1/2 a dozen celebrities since I been there that aren't 'pimp' cars. Ray Romana and Brad were there the other day with some OUTSTANDING vintage restoration rides. Tommy Lee was there yesterday with his navigator.
Ask to see there showroom and you'll crap your pants. No joke - 15 million in cars in there...[8D] Veyron, S7, ferrari, porsche GT, original 68 widebody GT500, the #2 GT500 supersnake, vintage ferraris, jags, ect, ect.
Hell - they even have the coffin dragster from the munsters...lol
A whole crap load of Rat Fink rides.
Very impressive and they aren't cheap - but they are ***** best IMO.

You have a lot of gauges. Kind of reminds me of the cockpit of a 747.
