    Now that looks a lot better with the compressor mounted low. (y) (y)

    Indeed, the low mount compressor looks 100% better

    The only bad thing is he's now going to have "low compression".

    Get it? "Compressor" mounted "Low" equals "Low" - "Compression"? Brrmmmp! I kill me.:pub:


    (Looks good, Frank. Effie's work is always nice)

    Rick, set the box of wine down and crawl away slowly:D

    Frank, looks good as always. If you get bored with nothing to do, come on over here and practice your handiwork on my car. I'm sure you could give me some ideas! :thumbs2:
