I'm sure it precipitated it, but it was probably waiting to happen. I just wanted the failure at 5k over my home field. :) Good plan > I have a pop off valve set at 7 lbs. I have a 6 PSI radiator cap in the intake. I don't think it can blow off pressure fast enough. What did you use for a pop-off? I bought an adjustable pop off valve somewhere - Summit racing, I think. > Cozy MKIV 13BT - painting as we speak Wow. You can paint and type at the same time? Very impressive. Well, almost, but not quite. Also I need to run into town to get an adapter for my HVLP gun. The line from the pressure pot is the right size, but the thread coupling isn't long enough to seat. Either need an adapter (a 45 or 90 would also help), or a rubber seal maybe. Headed to the paint store. It's only about 25 miles away. Bad think about living in the boon docks. Steve - Will be painting in a couple of hours
