Thanks.
Grommet is the oem piece.I enlarged the openning,w/a razor knife, for the 2" tube. Had to scrub 10 yrs of grime off it,w/laquer thinner, to get it to look like that.

Thanks man,
Ive heard of them used in place of an air tank but havent heard of their performance.

Re: my 98' Streetrod build
 
A friend of mine used nitrogen for a while but got a compressor and tank shortly after because he was going through it so fast and got tired of refilling it all the time.

Re: my 98' Streetrod build
 
The nitrogen bottle saved alot of headache for a friend when he was 9 hrs. from home and his compressor died. Everyday use may not be practical like stated above. He actually used the nitrogen for his train horn but a few tools and some time and he was rollin' again.

Thanks,come over here anytime.
The dash is about finished.Its supposed to look that way..:lol:Actually I have a couple of pieces to still make for the 2 raised areas but its going to be pretty much the way it looks.
The motor is going in as soon as my Friend Oscar gets finished going through the trans. He said next week,,Ive heard that one before. Thanks for lookin,

looking good man. Very original. PM me some info on how exactly that prop valve works. My original one had two lines going in, and three coming out, not sure if that one will work or not??
