I had an electric fuel pump on my old xb 351 fairmont & it delivered plenty. Also it is an added security measure. No one ever stole it. The fact that it looked like a real dog may have helped though!

Mmmm, would actually like to hear it when you really get up it. But in all seriousness, got any more footage?

Its nice to actually see a politically incorrect bit of footage on here for once. Beginning to think everyone acts like touchy feely pussies on here.

Donny

Bring it ON!!

I'm glad no-ones jumped on you yet..

Even though the footage wasn't great, that sounded SWEET!

*I think it's quicktime?

Same here, you need to watch it through IE, Firefox doesnt have the right plugins


Nice and Tuff sounding indeed
