Well lets see been wanting to get a dedicated grinder for the ol Tig machine. A sale at HF and wa la after turning the base 180 deg and welding a plate to existing bracket I made, I now have everything together.......
Yea guys I am fine just post this every year, besides having his old work shirt riding with me in the Flat Fed it allows me a chance to remind everyone to enjoy every minute with their children no matter how old they are or what they are going through, my son was to be in my pit crew but never got the chance.......... hence the Forever 43 on the side of the dragster........... and I don't mind talking about it to anyone because Suicide Sucks and changes lives forever..................
Behind the seat and its a XS Power AGM Battery S680 really small at 3 1/4x 71/4 but have had no problems with it these last 4 years have to by a special charger for em but it has been fine. At the track I use the Truck to charge it between rounds as I have plug in RV 12v connectors on truck and dragster The batt box.... Charging plug..... Battery below chute.....
Thanks for the info carl I think I'm gonna start off with a carb and I'm gonna have to run an electric pump I have a mag so ignition isn't a issue and I have a blower drive starter so that isn't a. Deal either my problem is trying to find a spot to put a battery there is no room behind my seat lol

Hey Carl, planning on doin woodburn this summer for the flathead/inline class. Wanna go? Figure a 14 hour drive each way the end of june
Yea thanks, saw your 40's there also but didn't get around much as I was busy shuffling kids into and out of the dragster all day. Looks like we will be loosing Downtown Tuesday Nights this year also which bums me out. Seems like everyone wants more and more money ..........UG
