recently painted the stock fuel rails red and left some parts polished to compliment the other parts and engraving. the red imo is a dead match to the brembos. i changed the 6.1 red to match on the half covers and just recently painted my SRT letters on the hood heat shield to match. i was thinking about changing my razors strut tower to red to match, but luckily i feel this is just enough. let me know what you think. just need to add the killerglass and 2 red led's and the bay is done, for now... btw, still raining here, so more crappy pix from in the garage. sorry!
thanks Ron! been itching to do some performance mods.... just getting the wifey to understand is the problem.
yeah, actually i told him to call Andy at PWR and they spoke, so we'll see what happens. all i know is he walked into my boys shop with 20k in cash and said here's some $$$.... ridiculous! last i heard he was having cold feet, so don't know. figure get it done quick before he changes his mind, lol.
thanks chris! my wife is the master mind, at least i let her think that. good to get them involved and a 2nd opinion. btw, give me a call sometime. given up trying to call your ass...
thanks! not sure if chris (Legmaker) still has them available, but i think it would be a good idea for him to bring it back. it would sell like crazy....
looks nice jimmy!!!! as for the letters, my source went out of business and i have yet to find some one else to do them......
cooooool!!!!!! means very few of us have them. i feel special (need) now. would be cool if you could find someone to make them, i'm sure they would sell....
ya know jimmy................ i might just have to do that............... i will get back to you on that one!!
Will do, can't say I blame yah. I just got back from Rockingham tonight. Met up with the SRT bunch for the Mopars at the Rock meet. Had a good time, but alas the weather conspired to keep me from bettering my 1/4 miles times.
you should! especially since no one else has done it and so many don't have it. another LMI mod, lol.
Jimmy. Did you take your fuel rails OFF to paint them I assume? How hard was that, is it something I can do myself?? Yours looks great dude!!! LOVE IT!!
Just OK. 11.98 @ 115+mph. Track was slippery and my best run came when it was 88*. Never did better than a 1.80 60ft. Jim, Burls and the VA crew made the trip worth while. I had a blast in the pits, especially watching Jim choke down a spice, crusty, chicken beak, biscuit, burrito. That shit was rancid.
yup, they need to come out to paint. of course you can do it yourself, with those capable hands...wink...wink.... here's a quick run down, just can remember the size for the fuel rail screw, but i'm sure everyone here knows it. how to: -diconnect the (-) on the battery -take off half covers (10mm) -disconnect harness and hose from back of intake manifold (or disconnect hose from behind steering wheel and pull out and up to allow removal of fuel rails) -disconnect fuel line from fuel rail on pax side (need special tool, can get it cheap at auto parts store. be sure to have a rag handy, some fuel will come out) -take off fuel rails (can't remember socket size) -remove injectors (need flat head screw driver to remove clip, but becareful, they will fly if you don't keep your finger on it while you unclip.) -pull each injector out of fuel rail. (see below) -lift fuel rail out from bay (connecting fuel rail line is tucked in back, which is why you had to disconnect the back harness and hose.) -sand rails with 800grit sand paper and clean -tape off areas you don't want to paint. -stuff injector holes and tape main fuel line connect -high heat primer rattle can -high heat red ford block rattle can -high heat clear rattle can -wet sand if needed, buff and polish -let dry, then install them back in reverse note: while your at it, you should clean all areas while there exposed. i used compressor and rags. IMPORTANT: when you take injectors out, do it outside, because some fuel will come out. have a rag handy and MAKE SURE YOU WEAR RUBBER GLOVES.
Sweet ass. Thanks Jimmy!! Sounds like I'll be tackling this the next day off I have free!! Preciate ya homie!!
