Manx Club

New problem, Remember that this is the worlds longest Manx build. Got in the Manx and have a strong smell of gas. No visible leaks, so I found the gas tank vent tube and I hope that is where the fumes are coming. It seems that there is a trap door in the tube, I guess for a rollover.but fumes must s...

I am done with the wiring, but didn't install the 50 amp master fuse yet. Do I need it? I know it for a catastrophic short, but I am having a hard time finding a good spot to place one, plus I don't like my options.

Gary

It requires the use of a bell crank style linkage instead of the cross bar type. other wise, you will need to remove the manifold/carb assembly to install the engine. Yes, I have built hu...

Booked, can't wait. Now I just have to finish one of the cars, so will it be drive, Towd ,drive regular car or fly. Any way it will be super fun
