Speaking of enabling and Milwaukee (swear I don't work for them). This is the gold standard for inflators. M12 one is good (have two of them - first one I attempted driving with while still attached to the valve - handle got mangled but it works fine) but this one is great.

That looks like the 6A too. I am able to inflate all my truck tires from 40 to 80 PSI (35x11.5's) with the 6A battery with that same pump. Then do the camper tires. All on one charge. Definitely a quality device.

Which blade did you use ? (i have that one too - bought for OPR removal).

Half moon ones. If my memory doesn't skip me, I used it for back side as well.

I will never buy any other tire pump. This is gold.

My little Ryobi was like $30 and works fine for Mustang tires. The batteries are great and never an issue.

But it IS anemic for my reinflating my Tacoma tires after airing down and actually overheats itself. So ... I let it cool down between tires and we will get home eventually. Might be after dark..

Went and learned to detail from a 47yr pro in Orange County…how did I do guys?

Does anyone know off the top of their head if either the Mach 1 or Shelby cars have a different bore size master cylinder than the PP1/2 cars? If so, then what is it?

My side vents or more specifically how everything in the engine bay will survive water with those vents got tested this weekend at Cleveland Pro - where got a ton of rain (event finished close to 8pm yesterday). Everything worked out fine but I also installed GT500 airbox from Levittown (who's the best source for parts btw). Stole the airbox idea from Nightmaremoon, not going to lie.

Yea the only thing you need to worry about is an open filter if you have side vents. I've been through some "can't see 20 feet in front of you" rain with mine and absolutely zero issues.

that center vent seems WAAAY back from the radiator backside. Any particular reason why?

Just make some rain trays if tou don't want water in. The cost is like 50-70 bucks if you want to go fancy.

Agreed with shogun, while this placement is ok according to Al, was there a specific reason not to put it closer to the rad?

Looks to be the same location the Race Louvers suggests they be mounted.

Like Kyle said above - this is more or less where Race Louvers says to put it - and it addition at the time I wanted to stay away from the open airbox I had....

Huh, so the instructions have evolved.

It used to be right at or a couple inches behind the rad backside.

Thats how my racelouvers were as well (2015-2017 model year RTs), much closer.

Is there any reason to install hood vents if cooling is not an issue? I think there is a negligible DF increase, but if cooling is no issue, why cut vents?

I installed for cooling…not sure if DF would be a good enough excuse to install them otherwise. Outside all that, I think they would be useless.
