        • Only if I can have a ride in yours!! I tried so hard to keep up with you at the summer meet and greet last year. Coming off that stop light on Chicago drive you blew way ahead of me. Maybe this year I'll be able to keep up. I'll be looking forward to seeing your car at the M & G if not sooner at Dawg's.

            • Looks awesome, Red! Looks like the same intake elbow I have (but I have black connectors instead of red) and the rag joint eliminator is a great thing!

                      A rag joint refers to certain flexible joints found on automobiles. They are typically found on steering shafts that connect the steering wheel to the steering gear input shaft, usually at the steering gear end. They provide a small amount of flex for a steering shaft within a few degrees of the same plane as the steering gear input shaft. It also provides some damping of vibration coming from the steering system, providing some isolation for the steering wheel.

                        The strearing shaft in the engine bay has a joint in it from the factory that is a cloth type damper.

                        Over time it becomes sloppy and you loose feeling in the strearing.

                        The Eliminator is an Alum. puck that replaces that.

                        I'll have pics in a few days
