i forgot to add that the car felt like a little bit of a shake . like you were saying.  i thought low tire also.  motor would turn 1/2 turn and that was it.   just thinking if it maybe bound up timing gears enough to break front of crank.   just me thinking too much.   i definitely feel your pain. 

I learned something new today.   i know a lot about fe but i have never seen that. thanks for the enlightenment

mines certed nhra.  I know they recognize each other. but I am just going to check with my nhra division 5 office and let them tell me where to go that's why I pay these memberships for.   I live in the upper Midwest so my cert guys im sure are sitting in the house as I am.

I don't have the newest nhra book yet.  but my question is how fast before they have to be sfi approved?  I was internet shopping and their not bad priced but they get in that 400 dollar range awful fast

I was going to do the air shifter and cant remember why I didn't.  so as I cant remember squat was the solenoid a front or rear mount? or was it either?

I know its about diapers but I have yet to see a ford anything scatter at the track!   the  other 2 companies I have seen blow up
 a lot. 

A guy I used to hang out with has them made for the fe and sells on ebay. they are a nice piece and he has them made for automatic and or 4 speed cars.  just look on ebay.   he still sells them on their.  they bolt into the factory mounting holes on your car.  no guessing at all.
