    Insured Value for Higher End Sandcar

    State Farm is the only one I can find that will cover to the full value. Nobody else even close. Foremost will do liability and max value of $50k on comprehension. Safeco will do liability only. Everyone else has been a hard no for one reason or another. And keep in mind, I have a clean driving...

    Insured Value for Higher End Sandcar

    I’m leaning toward just insuring for the full value. The premium difference isn’t enough to take the risk

    Interesting. Please let us know what you find and if they have any value limitations like many of the others.

    Insured Value for Higher End Sandcar

    I’m curious how much some of you insure your higher end sand cars for? I’m taking delivery of my new car in a few weeks so I’m working on finalizing insurance. So far State Farm is the only one that will insure it and the premium is pretty expensive. I’m thinking to insure it for 15%-20% less...

    WTB 4.5 Whipple

    I wonder if that’s the same guy I heard about? I believe it is in a new SCU. Sounds like a very similar story even though it made more hp on the dyno.

    WTB 4.5 Whipple

    Is your's in assembly now? Wondering if your chassis is the one I just saw in line behind mine? It was a lighter silver color I think? Mine is headed over to Gary for dyno tomorrow, I should take delivery mid-May.

    Oil Extractor Pump Recommendation

    Yes, I plan to set it up to connect direct to the drain line. I believe the fitting on the drain hose is 1/4" so I'll use airline quick disconnect and fittings.

    Oil Extractor Pump Recommendation

    After looking further at what you recommended I went with basically the same thing but in the Mighty Vac version. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002SR7TC?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

    Oil Extractor Pump Recommendation

    I remembered I have a Reverso brand system on my big boat that works really well. I found this portable one they make but dang it's expensive: https://reversopumps.com/op-7-p-12/ Also found a Jabsco system and they are known for good pumps...

    Oil Extractor Pump Recommendation

    Does anyone have a recommendation for a decent 12v oil extractor pump? I'm not looking for the kind that draws out the dipstick tube. I have an oil drain line connected to the bottom of the pan. I need to change the oil in my wakeboard boat. The oil does not gravity drain very well but...

    WTB 4.5 Whipple

    I have heard 3rd hand (can't confirm) that Redline used a 3.8 on the same engine they would build for a 4.5 and it made 70hp more on the dyno. I have no idea if the extra power was on the bottom end, top end or throughout the power band. You are correct that 3.8 is represented to be more...

    WTB 4.5 Whipple

    I hope you have better luck than I did. After almost a year getting jerked around by Whipple I bought a used one that was supposed to be good. The only thing useable was the housing. 4 more months of the Whipple BS getting it rebuilt.

    Trading In or Selling a Deleted Truck

    Turns out you can trade in a deleted truck, at least here in Oregon anyway. I had several dealers make me offers. Made a decent deal on a nice, low-mile 2018 yesterday. These are smaller used dealer lots that made offers. I didn't try at any larger Ford dealers or similar. BTW - if any of you...

    Tariffs

    Nope, it's not that 3% of our stuff comes from China. It's that only 3% of China's exports go to the US. In other words. they are only sending us 3% of their stuff that goes out of their country.

    Tariffs

    Yep, it was the bond market issues that caused Trump to chill out at least a little. Not only are bonds being dumped, but the most recent bond auction saw little interest from investors. This is exactly opposite what should have happened given recent stock declines. This is a huge red flag that...

    Whip Storage In Enclosed Trailer

    You don't have any issues getting the thicker whips into the foam? I found I had to roll my thicker whips back and forth quite a bit to get them to seat into the foam.

    Whip Storage In Enclosed Trailer

    The 4" pvc is a possibility as well. I did that several trailers ago and mounted it to the ceiling of the trailer so it was out of the way. My new trailer is 8' inside so I would need to put it on a wall instead. The fishing rod holder was good because the foam helped protect the whips. The...

    Whip Storage In Enclosed Trailer

    Thanks. Did that last time and was hoping to find something better. If not, I'll get another one of those.
