What their asking for is MANUAL SHUT OFF VALVES ( The kind you turn with your hand) in all fuel lines.If you passed in XRRA all you need to do is put a MANUAL BALL VALVE in your return.The only question now is how close to the fuel tank does it need to be.

...and the feed. So, a total of 3 valves.

Not flipping you **** Droop, that just strikes me as funny and the norm. Its like that in all motorsports not anything to get hung up on Matt, the "handle valve" you are referring to should actually be above and beyond the ball valve rule but who knows. I have or we can get something from Gdale performance, not a big deal at all.

I hope you don't flip my ****.

"handle valve" sounds fine.

We're making sure to use dot-9 brake fluid per the rules as well. :woot:

The antifreeze thing is a joke. We bought the non-ethylene glycol kind and it was still green! How can they tell what kind it is?

I asked. They said they are going to take our word for it.

Just sent Big Rich some pics of AC's manual valves and big said all is good with one more that I said would be removed after this race.The fuel feed has about 3" of hose to the valve and the return and vent will have about 14' of hose from the tank.Stay in these lines and you'll be good.

Pops what was said about tipover valves on the vent line? Ball valve ok or does it need to be automatic? I did some rollover testing this weekend and all my systems are ok

I didn't even think to ask about roll over.We don't have one now but we are going to add one in the vent line before we go.Getting some that go in the line.Cheap fix. :****:

So am I reading right that we have to have a "rollover" valve and a "ball" valve in the vent? So two valves in the vent?

My tank comes with that ball from the factory i believe. Got my valves installed tonight. ended up using 1/2" water valve from Lowes. Looks the same as the other ball valves but no fittings to deal with. Around $6 a pop.
