It's been in my garage for 2 years or so. I have the brackets and everything, just no motivation. I may end up doing it out of sheer boredom one weekend before a show.

i was just jokin with ya man. but if you have the brackets...its not terribly bad. u just need bout 2 hours or so.

Well they are L brackets that I had fabbed up at a local welding shop, not the Bwoody ones. The thing I haven't been able to find yet is the BARB fitting and for someone to tell me if the OEM HE hose is 3/4" hose is actually 5/8"ID & 3/4"OD.

the hose size that u need is a 3/4 INSIDE diameter. i made that mistake when i did mine too. u need 3/4 inside diameter, and the outside diameter is 1/2 i beileve.

It's physically impossible to have a 3/4" inner diameter hose and 1/2" outer diameter hose. I have 3/4" inner diameter hose in my garage but it seems like it's too big and it should be 5/8" inner diameter.

really? i was almost certain thats what i got for it to fit. becuase i bought first a 3/4 to do my HE, but it ended up being a 5/8 inside which ws too small. either way, i went to lowes and took in my pump to see what size i needed.

Well then I guess I have everything but the BARB fittings for the HE.

I am dyslexic when it comes to numbers but i am laffing over these posts....


here is the good news: you are measurig IAT's

here is the bad news: anyone who is not using option B self bleeding with a remote reservoir to replace the piddly ass OEM reservoir is dreaming in technicolor if they beleive they are acheiving anything remotely close to optimal h/e efficiency... kinked hoses, laminova tubes in OEM orientation, wrong plumbing orientation all this should not be happening if you are serious about your power....this site has excellent how to's and great feed back from succesful installations....

I've only seen people use Opt B when doing a dual pass. Is there a schematic for using Opt B and an additional HE?
