Default Alky Control

Just seeing who is running it and maybe get an idea of what they are running price wise for the trucks. I called a few times and couldn't get through to them. I was going to to order the Snow Kit but my tuner refuses to tune it with that kit.

Not sure, I actually had ordered it through summit and emailed my tuner to tell him, then he proceeded to tell me that he refuses to tune it with the snow kit because of the fail safe having issues

I ran the Alky kit for about 5 years, and went through 3 pumps. Julio was always great to deal with, but still had to buy new pumps. I think his warranty was about one year. I recommend getting a filter.

What was the problem everyone else had with their pumps. I'm on my second one. My first one didn't stop working but it did get a bad leak.

My first one apparently rusted because the pump was not mounted vertically. That is what i was told.

The next 2 randomly developed leaks which is exactly what you want. Extremely flamible liquid hosing all over your hot motor.
