And are you really trusting that DuraSpark igntion with squeeze??

I was wondering what u mean by fuel line cannot have more than 12 inches of rubber? thats the stock fuel line.. do i have to get a braided one?
Y do u need 3/8th j hooks? I have a small shot on the car right now. im not gonna put a bigger one till i upgrade the fuel and ignition system

It's quite possible they overlook it all.

The fuel line isn't stock. Carb'd models had a hard (steel) line up to the connection at the carb. Technically, you cannot have more than 12" of rubber fuel line inside the engine bay.

I dunno. what do people with the same shit run? I dont have a role cage, blowdown tube, under 12 inches of rubber fuel line in the engine compartment and 3/8ths j/hooks not 5/16ths.. so im not allowed to run. I got that info from Jon B except for the cage..

for a stock motored Vert that seems about right.

This is my buddies stock LX hatch

you should atleast try to run it once or twice with out the jug to get some baseline numbers and se what the NA is capable of doing. They might let you slide for a little bit with out the cage. I say its worth a shot.

Well not like a ton, but you could always be trying to out do your best. And when you out to best yourself, anything could help. Skinnies are gona lower your weight and your rotational mass so that allows the car to move a little easier and if you can transfer weight easier with the sway bar off. Then you could 60ft better and lower your time that way as well. I don't have skinnies or slicks cause I am trying to make my car go as fast as I can get it to go in full everyday street trim.
