Re: New Member New Q1 Build first questions
Phil,
I sis consider this. The main reason i chose the q1 was the low price of the engine and the rapidity of the build. I suppose the q200 might not take much longer to build, but the engine (o200)

Re: 3/16 inch Brake line fittings
I am replacing a brake line that cracked during inspection. I gather that most folks are using Nylaflow--I presume you are using the heavier duty 2500psi 3/16OD version with an ID of 0.111in ID,
