I like Odonnel 20%

yeah, but that was made in partnership. i mean, with the actual name duratrash stamped on it?

I'm just busting your stones. My dry humor never shows well in text.

That's exactly why I don't want the duratrax box. That whole "in-stock" factor has me tempted though.

in stock + avg product + LHS promoting = bad decision

I have a couple of duratrash tools and they work great! I really like my aluminum handeled delux body reamer its sweeet!

spend the big money on cars and trucks and you can save a little in the tool/accessory department if quality is still good. JMO

i agree on the quality thing. right now, I'm gonna hold off on the box until I see it in action at the track. at this rate, that seems like never. !@#$ing mirage!

I got another question, Since I have no way to start my car I used the one way nut that is inside the pullstart and put it into a 13mm nut driver bit and plugged that into my drill, then put it onto the shaft that the pullstart was on and whammo 40secs later it starts up. I let it run for about 30sec then bolt the wheel back on and i'm off. Is this a bad way to start the car (like is it bad for the engine).

spector - some companies actually use this design from the factory. as long as u are not creating air leaks. it shouldnt be a problem.

specter, does the shaft that goes into the backplate slide in and out of the engine? or is it mounted inside and very rigid.

If it slides in and out, this is a not a good idea as the shaft may fly out as you turn a corner and produce large air-leak in the engine. It's it's sloid (most are), you've just created a homeade "Yank Eliminator" (costs $25). The onway will slide off the shaft and hence you'll have to hold it in your pocket or something.

It sounds like you're fine though.
