Tom Grove.... whoever that is. He is the one pictured in the avatar.....
Every single one. Met most of them except Ronnie Sox. Went, some time ago, to Venolia Pistons in LBC and met Papa Joe Pisano and Mike Dunn(Who was a machinist at the time). Also met and talked to many many times Old man Reath, can't remember the first name, who was part of the Reath & Dunn Funny cars (Jim Dunn, Mike's Dad). I grew up around drag racing and at one time was '' this close to getting a crew job on Joe Amato's TF car, in the 90's... didn't want to leave the steady job I had and I've kicked myself in the butt ever since(especially since they laid me off in 2006). I should have jumped on that while I had the chance. Feces Occurs
Ok not on a complete tangent... but Pics=good

Today was the day I got stuck at work. I did go to Costco & Sam's and I checked out two new roll aways. This thing is massive. I don't like the color and the drawer arrangment... $949.00
I saw a stanless version at Sam's Club look pretty good and only $700.00 bones...
I like that Craftsman but it's over priced even on sale...$1,100.00 Gee!

Vortech update...

Latest pics from the install garage...
Blower is the only thing that will get removed and bolts Loctited, then re-installed.
Only cosmetic complaint is the stupid Meziere cap, that when installed, the letters aren't straight.. it's off at an angle. Oh well, better than seeing a cheap Stant cap.![Rollinglaugh](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/rollinglaugh.gif)
I did too good of a polishing job on the Cantons, now my blower looks dull!

New fuel line ready to go! ![Headbang](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/headbang.gif)
The stock plastic fuel hose is a POS for tapping. I'm not sure how long a 'T-tap' would've survived without it eventually failing and spewing fuel into the engine bay (courtesy of my Boost-A-Pump
).
Factory ends have been cut off the OEM line and welded onto the new steel braided line. AN fittings all around, including the NPT block where the fuel pressure sending unit will thread into.
This is the line that goes from the fuel rail to the fuel line (from the tank).

That blower's geting closer...Bill, I'm going out on a limb here, Im thinking that the fiesta fender covers are better than the pocohontas ones...
I do believe it was a pic of yours, sig credit coming...It's an awesome picture! I used it as my desktop for a while. It got replaced by a picture of Valentino Rossi knee draggin'
Plastic fuel lines suck, stainless steel brake lines are a lot better as well.
