Glad it could bring some comic relief. :thumbsup:

It's no problem skip, I have great sense of humor and I tend to come off harsh but it's all the Monte Python and three stooges growing up. And they say TV rots your brain... I laugh and say "what brain?!?!"

so back to the Orange, we poked around and looked over the various oil gally plugs they have run and failed in the past and I was able to determine it was an AN o-ring fiting and not a thought to be NPT.

I happen to have a -4 union but no plug, so I chopped one side off and welded the hole shut. rolled on an o-ring and installed it. Good fit. Tried it and it held up. So its off to Thunderhill.

thanks, oh the classics...
I don't think he got any track time due to what time he got up there but knowing him it didn't stay in the trailer... I guess he did great for a parade car.
No details yet. If he is feeling anything like I do he is asleep under his supervisor desk.

Here are a few pictures of the cell box and mounting cage.

Nice fuel cell cage. :)

Vince@Meanstreets 05-05-2014 08:19 AM

Thanks Ron,

He will be going in for a cage revision soon and we'll get some down bars to tie into.

BTW, I wish I had gone with 38" canister hoses.
