My exhaust flanges and gaskets came in yesterday. $10 at Napa for a flange and gasket, not bad.


Hopefully I can do some welding tonight.

Got a quick question on your tac man. What is readline in your jeep and can you set the redline on the tac? Just curious I am looking at one.

I think its 5500, but I don't know that I have ever bumped the limiter. I don't have a tach at all, so I try not to spin the motor too fast. Don't need to, really.

And all you gotta do is spin the face of the tach to move the redline. Its slick.
