He's already not really needing the 34 row. So the smaller lines will be just fine for his purposes. Plus, Fast Intentions > Z1...


Beau, we'll figure out and fabricate a couple of block off plates and mounts that will allow easy install and removal for various weather conditions
Don't worry it'll only take 5-6 years minimum for R&D

So this afternoon I mowed the front yard. It was hot lol. I took a shower and got ready for dinner plans. When I got in the car it said 111F

Headed out to game night now. One of the guys got a projector setup so he can host a responsible game night with social distancing

You can run those cheap lines. The FI lines are teflon inserted with crimped ends. I prefer XRP crimped lines to be honest. That aero stuff is cheap junk.

Can't wait to have my car wired with a forever chemical! Now Teflon will be inside both me and the Z. It's like the tails of the Avatar forming together.

Made it to Booneville Missouri. That's around 750 miles today. Have another 750 miles to go. We got a late start. We had a nice long breakfast with friends. We hit the road around 11am. Northern Ok. and southern Kansas got some smooth roads. But they are so fvkin' straight. Drove through fly over country. Speed limit 65. Ah........ cruise at 85-90. Only seen 3 men in blue all day.


I'm not going to be like some other person and ask "what I miss". I'm going back to read "what I missed".

I've never had a problem with Aero lines and fittings. Used them for years.

I'm not comfortable running lines some hungover wahoo crimped into a fitting.

I cut my own lines and fit my own fittings. No one is going to care more about my lines than me. It's not particularly difficult to do.

The standing ones have 3 settings. The floor ones have 2 settings. I'm interested to see the difference...
