run the 962's. You'll get bored of the excess of spokes on the other ones.

I was lucky and got an apprenticeship and I enjoy what I do and my employer pays for all my education. I get an all expenses paid trip to Traverse City, MI for two weeks for a class. Staying at the great wolf lodge waterpark lol.

So i found a few extra HID relay harnesses in the garage. I actually have enough to make 3. I am making them into fuel pump rewire kits. I am in process of making one right now. Going to see if maybe that helps my fueling. It should help the pump keep up with the demand for fuel with the extra voltage to the pump. I will post a few pictures to show you how I did it.

So i finished converting my old HID relay harness over to a fuel pump rewire. Pump is much louder when priming but i haven't had a chance to take it for a beating, wife is gone for a bit. Here are the pics.
