The fittings are xrp . Go to xrp.com and download the catalog . They are in there. Maby jegs may have them . I brought my sending unit to the local speed shop around here to make sure they were correct.

Russel sells a new style fitting that has a sleeve that slides over the line, and then gets threaded into the bulkhead of the fitting. It cannot come undone like the older snap style fittings.

Work looks good. Im not really a fan of the green but you are doing a good job at cleaning everything up!

My buddy bought the gun of eastwood.com for i think 120 bucks not sure what kit he bought. He found a garbage electric oven for free . And i bought my own powder for 14 bucks. So basically all that powdercoating that would have costed me probly a coupple gs was done for 14 bucks. And its so easy to do. I couldnt have done it without layslow though. Didnt get to road test yet, got it start and it ran great. Still got tons to do before test. ( shocks, plumbing, wiring, bleeding brakes, ect,ect,ect...)

You should powercoat the billet spacers black.[/QUOTE

I agree with that. luckily they are easy to get off. i still got a coupple more things i need to do . when i did the last powdercoating job i forgot the rear caliper brackets. and some random stuff.

thanks gimp. My dead line for this project is summer, so that means i got 5 months to get this done. the only thing that is really holding me up is shocks and painting the frame. shocks im gonna do this weekend but the paint is obviously temp sensitive especially since im raptor lining it . . so i ither gotta trailer it to my job or some other heated garage to get it done. thennnnn i could start building the floor which is going to take a while since i got major plans for it.
