Fuel Sampling Valves

Yes I both run a clear hose (so easy to see by all that it is empty, and having sat out on a 2.5 decades long break and redoing the car (the rules had changed a lot), so I was forced not only take a deep dive into the rules to see what I could do (my list was long), and I have only completed half of it so far due to choosing just the most financially feasible or those things that were more likely to resolve past issues first, so it is still a work in constant progress (one step at a time).

But, I studied the lousy book almost as much as I actually worked on the car. And I still find surprises often. Finding track time is hard though out west is the hardest part though along w/our great high temp dry heat.

Rules are Black Writing on white pages (not gray areas in someone's mind). What some may want at my late stage of life is not what I am aiming for.

Following that black writing is, even if I may be leaving a lot on the table, and I know I am doing that too. But, just watching what happened at Indy in Stock kills me (top 5 on the Q sheet, Class Wally, and the race on the line after, and to be DQ'd just sucks).

It took me actually months to make a decision on NHRA approved forged replacement pistons and standing in line waiting for Ross to make and deliver them along w/ the proper ringsets, but they were both on the approved list and made and delivered with the correct dimensions and markings and paperwork.

Collecting the right parts isn't easy.
