  1. If you wear a helmet in a sandcar, WEAR A NECK BRACE so you don't break your neck from the weight of the helmet,
  2. I have used them on a couple of prep jobs and they seem to work really good,
  3. will post the pic, it will work for the car, but has bubbles in the top and can see light thew the gauge area, I painted the back side with more black and it looks ok, it was the fiberglass that looks like carbon Fiber, looks like it was made in 3 parts and all the seams are in black, not one piece, when they shipped it, they did not wrap it up, just put it in the box, so it has a couple of scratches not real deep, if I post pics the dash will look great from a far, For the price I am satisfied, just don't like being lied to If I was to do it again I think I would have got the dash from Trailer Products that fits the Desert Dynamics Dual Sport,
  4. Hate to bust your bubble but they get them from Midwest controls, check them out you will be shocked on pricing when you buy in bulk
  5. Last season I pulled the pan about every 4 trip, and seen sludge with the full race synthetics, so I have been using just a normal synthetic like Royal purple and change every trip, and purchased a oil filter separator so I can cut it open to look in it, don't see any partials so hope it is good, with a LS3 Stroked to a 416, and bearings set on the mains at .0022 and the rods at .0023 I get 60lbs at idle with a 10w-40,
  6. Driving to Dumont from Vegas, about 23 years now and have done about every way you can, have towed with a FJ40 and trailer, Toyota Truck and 2 sand cars 2 wd 7.3 with a 30 foot carson, and the dreaded ford 6.0, living in NW, I have took the 95 to Rainbow to Charelston, have took the 95 to 15 to Blue Diamond, 215 all the way to charelston, 215 to Durango then to Blue Diamond, Also have took the 95 out past Indian Springs, Most of the time I am inpatient, so I take the 215 to Charly then up thew RedRock and then to Blue Diamond and then back way to Tecopa, The main reason is to avoid most of the people, I now Drive at Night and find it the most relaxing, On the way back with the Ford 6.0 and a WW 3705 I take It into pharump fuel up and then threw to Indian springs, My truck just can not handle the Grade past Mt Pass, to hard on the Brakes, I Now have a 6.7 Dually, so I am going to stick with the Tecopa Road there and Back, really don't like going into Pharump, feel I almost get hit by a car every other time I go there, and the Indian springs is the least amount of stress but takes allot longer,
  7. Remember Sand cars do not stop on a Dime, use caution around them,
  8. Got the dash today, Was glossy but had scratces in about 3 areas, will have to touch up, was boxed up with cut up boxes and no packaging on the inside, got to love it thrown in a box and shipped it, They wanted to charge me $80 to ship from sandiego to Las Vegas for Grayhound and $150 for freight, I sent them a shipping label for Fedex and it cost me $46, so not sure if they where also trying to make up some more funds on the purchase,
  9. Just called them again but the tracking still not showing scanned in, what a waist of time with these guys,
  10. Warning, I would stay away from Mcneil Fiberglass, Purchased a Dash on 7-17-14, was told 2 weeks, after a month they said it was shipped, week goes by they said it was shipped, call back 3 day later, and said I want the tracking number and they come back on the phone and said sorry we sent your dash to someone else They tell me no worries, we will have it out in 4 days, week and a half go by and they said on Friday that it is boxed up and ready to go, Wednesday I send them a shipping tag due to them wanting $150 to ship it from CA to NV, so I send them a FedEx shipping tag, Still No dash told me yesterday that FedEx has picked it up, So Now I will have to fight with them to get a refund What a Joke, If you have to deal with them I would use Paypal or a Paypal Master card,
