Thanks for the photo, not the JC comment. That wasn't necessary.

Once again, the squeeky wheel gets the grease! :D

Clearly, that won't work for the sled:

Who ever did that didn't have an intercooler. No wonder I couldn't understand what he was talking about....

So ignore it. I don't like yelling, you don't like Jesus. Even Steven.

More on topic - have you considered attaching the horns to the charcoal canister bracket? The wiring should reach, and you'd only need to drill a hole or two.

??????? What's that about?
You don't even know me, much less my spirituality.
A bit touchy, eh?
You misinterpret my exclamation as YELLING when it wasn't.

Your solution won't work. The sled's charcan is in the rear near the tank. Not an appropriate place for a horn!

I don't give a high tide about anyone's spirituality. You're the one who said you didn't like the JC comment. So I inferred.

I forgot that your canister's in the back - I guess I just assume everyone has the same car I do. :lol:
