I can't plop down the $1k+ for a tangerine, so I need some direction on an inexpensive, durable (read: wont rust like madness), clean (read: won't leak so I can fab up heat). I'm not sure what a decent one will cost... Definitely looking for a boost over SSI's in performance.
My guesses are... Euro-Race Kerry Hunter ??? thanks for your input. |

Wouldnt it be kinda easy to catch it on stuff hanging that low? Looks like the pulley bracket is cut at the top. what kind of metal is that little extension made of? 1/4'' steel? |

NO mods to the pulley bracket required. the tab is just over an inch long, 13ga sheet metal. I used to use that setup on my race car until the last round of lowering. It never hit the ground. I am about to add a new product to my line-up that relocates the pulley bracket to a horizontal position and routes the cable above the pipes. It is fully tested on my race car, and I have several in stock, just haven't found time to take installation pics for my website. |
