Yeah I would say so plus you got E85 almost impossible to detonate on. So do you know anyone besides Zrated that is tuned by BennyHHR? That is who I am gonna invite down to tune me

Received my package from Zrated today with the LNF Alternator, tensioner, and bracket. Now all I need it the pigtail and belt, thus the complete alternator swap. Woohoo Thanks Kenny

I think doing it in the dirt/gravel is admirable. You build where you can. I remember being a lot younger (lol) and would work on my car in my moms gravel drive. I was more into car audio and electronics at the time but still had to crawl around to run wires and crap. Just good memories. Great job Bad-A-SS

go to big lots, but a 25 dollar angle grinder, go to sears and buy a whole bunch of craftsman 4" cutoff wheels for said angle grinder. Take it to the exhaust. I have used my big lots angle grinder for years and never burned up the motor. Great tool. I think its Cambell Hausfeld, which is actually a great company. The cutoff wheels are quality from sears and they are only a buck or two each.
