    Thanks Les. I've always been the type to ask questions--Why is one part better than another. I'm not satisfied going with something just because everyone else does it or the fast guys use it. If there's a better way, I want to know about it. Just look at Garlits and Pete Robinson. Not to say I'm some great innovator but at least I'll have fun tryin!

    If your running an alcohol car why would you want a pump that flows 45 gallons a minute. The Waterman is what you want. The reason that the "fast cars" run a waterman is because that's the best for this application.

    Like I said a few lines back, Settles builds pumps that flow ALOT less. Spent a good deal of time talking to him. Flexible, customer oriented and affordable. He'll make a pump based on MY application.

    Do whatever you want TM, it's your money. I'm just offering the the best proven application. When your starting out you have too many other things to worry about. Trying new innovations is fine if your running in the top 10. If your not then do whatever the top 10 guys are doing then think about changing it up a bit.

    Hmmmm.....I've heard that Meyer saying a few times now, usually rings true..........but I agree with trying stuff a little different, you will never learn anything if you don't.........I can hear Bob again now.........
