Too cool!!!!
Very nice of you to put up that video too! I was going to ask how its shifted so i am anwsered!!! One other question if you dont mind, i looked at your rad hoses and they are VERY nice. I would like to do something similar and am wondering where i can get some tubing for that? Also, what are those rubber sleeves? They look Sooooo clean! Thanks, and keep on knocking down the work on the Imp, it gets better every post! Lead. Btw, love the color too! |
It looks great. Glad to see more progress.
|
That's definetly stepping up the game. That looks bad azz!!!!
|
Very awesome Mitch. Great updates.
She sounds mean too!:unibrow: :thumbsup: |
Lead,
the hoses are just pieces of stainless tubing i got from columbia river mandrel bending. found here>> http://www.mandrel-bends.com/catalog...FQMRNAodrzg_dA the rubber sleeves that connect them are just silicone hoses that i also got from columbia river. i think jegs and summit also sells both of those items. the jeffco is an unbelievable transmission, at WOT there simply is nothing cooler. thanks to everyone who checked out my update and left comments, you guys keep me going and keep me pushing myself to get better. |
Looks killer man! that transmission is sweet! :yes:
