Well, maybe not QUITE but.... :)

 

I very stupidly fitted my home brew stainless steel swirl pot to my Skyline today, without pressure testing it with compressed air under water. Sods Law came into play with three pinholes in the welds holding the top and bottom caps on and petrol weeped out. Only tiny leaks, but *any* leak is a no no in a swirl pot! I TIG'd them up after just draining it, with a shaky hand and great trepidation, but I am still here and so is the garage :) Will test things like this with air next time ;)
