Arsin Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I got two batteries for the hydros and one for the car under the big amp. My setup is very simple 24 volts two switches that go up and down very slow. No mechanical issues or over heating at all. The only issues I had was trying to figure evrything out because I never done any of this before. One of the reasons I went with a front set up is as all of you already know we have a small trunk. I also wanted to have some beats. I've heard people TALK about putting the pumps in the engine compartment, but yours is the first time I've actually seen it done!

My club had one that came out in the magazine back in 96 that had pumps in the firewall. Right now we have a 70 that has one pump right infront of the firewall. We also have another 70 that has a whammy tank like mine but sits up higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BerryLowMerlot Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I am from Orange County CA. but moved to AZ in 04 probably the same reason you moved to Washington. I wanted a better life for my wife and kids. I love Cali too but you know how it is. No in n outs in Washington? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only have 5 Del Taco's (I know of 2 locations) and 5 FatBurger that (I know of 1 location). Both places are fairly new here. I lived in Vegas for 6 years and never liked In-N-Out but the other two I miss. In-N-Out was named that for a reason. We just started to get Carls Jr. here a few years back and not a big fan of them either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just started to get Carls Jr. here a few years back and not a big fan of them either. You must not be into junk food which is good. In n out has the best fries. Actually, I'm unfortunately a junkfood junkie. I eat almost every meal at a fast food restaurant. I cook at home maybe one meal a week. I know, its gonna kill me. I grew up with fast food as my dad owned a Drive-In as they were called in the 50s and 60s. He had those till the late 70s. Through the 50s and 60s our only real compitition was McDonalds. People told my dad he needed to branch out and get more of them but he said no, the customers prefer a Ma n Pa operation and McDonalds was just a fad. Way to go Dad!! Maybe with In-N-Out I hit them on bad days. I give every place 2 chances. I must have hit them on 2 bad days. Same with Carls Jr. in Vegas. I have eaten there here in Washington since and it was pretty good but now if I go I get the same thing every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all over the place up here now. Right now that's the spot! never seen one here Pinksta!! They all up north? personally I will eat just about anything. Havent eaten at Taco Bell in a very long time though. 2002 I think. No matter what I got there I got heartburn. I enjoy it while Im eating but about an hour later the heartburn starts. We had a taco hell next door to a job I had in Vegas in 02. I tried everything and with no hot sauce and still got it. This went on about a month before I gave up. Its like, how many times do you punch youself in the face before you decide thats not good?!? 5 times is all it took me. But then I fight dirty. A couple were sucker punches!

The ones I have seen are up north. They are just exploding. The patties are 100% beef never frozen and you pick the condiments, all of which are free of charge. Next time your up this way we'll go swing by there. Originally Posted By: Capri's 71 SS we have them here in Cleveland - but we have never been there. Definetly worth a visit. But they come in double patties so you may wanna ask for just a single patty, I know when I get mine I can't eat more than one and even that's alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chevyss Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Love the Low Riders. When I lived in Texas they were very popular and they had some great car shows. We all can appreciate that the work and money that goes into these cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
