    Do your fillets and all your tabbing at the same time. Your bubble roller will make a good radius and the hard to reach stuff just use finger

    1974 reinell cuddy restore

    Real nice day to be out. Glass. But still "ground hog day". Still loosing fuel pressure. I have determined its not heat related. I have phenolic spacers on carb and fuel pump. Shielded fuel lines and filter. Engine barely got to 160. Mostly 145-150. Carb, pump and all other fuel related things...

    High current on fuel pump

    Verify current with ampmeter and if current is correct and matching guages try fuel regulator. If it's not bypassing causing pump to deadhead the current will go up
