Title: Flame Arrestor
Post by: Stevecat on July 31, 2008, 08:49:28 PM: Does anyone know if it is OK with "the Man" if I rig my motor where the flame arrestor is surrounded by an air filter? Yea I know there are combo models but the height won't work out inside my godlike engine cover.

Hmm, seems like most of the lakes up here in the north are becoming just that, dust bowls. Is the water good down there? ;D
