I doubt that intake plenum could handle any real boost. And by doubt I mean those 3 1/2" holes in the intake plenum would constitute a large boost leak.
Yeah, but could just be a free-spinning compressor for...uh, no reason at all. Seriously, with some of the stuff that was in this "show", who the f*ck knows? It was like an ultimate redneck collection of cars, I only went in a few times to use the bathroom while racing outside in AutoX, but apart from a couple nice cars like an NSX, there were like 15 challengers and chargers and an assortment of other bizarre cars.

Replacing the swollen plastic piece?
Yep.

Have another set that I managed to get the seals off without damaging them. Then very lightly (supah' fine wet/dry paper) sanded them down just a touch. Reinstalled seals, and all has been good for about two years now.

This set finally started giving trouble, but I borked the seals trying to remove them. Oops. Have some aftermarket alloy replacements on the way.

I had one lever that would get a little sticky when it was hot outside. So I just taped a chunk of a rag to it and would spit water on it when it was hot outside.

Got both of my sets from that era warranty replaced thankfully. Zero issues with the replacement levers.

I've been busy.

Plumbers came in today to do some plumbing. Plumbers are gonna plumb.

Also, they drop the pump in the well and we now have water in the house and one toilet. Woot!

Spent the week-end building interior partition.

VRC is getting installed Wednesday and Electrical Thursday.

I just did mine a few months back. Ordered some aluminum replacements off of ebay, they came from GINA and cost like $15. Brakes are all good now.
