Wondering how it caught on fire ???

The hot spot on the hood is right above the fuel pressure regulator area.
My first thought was a methanol leak if the truck had a meth system on it.
It could have just been a fuel leak.
Who knows????
Ironically he has a Lyle Barnett sticker on the back glass. So probably a fan of Drag Racing.

Supposbly some guy bought this typhoon at a auction after the fire and brought it to to Chicago everywhere. This guy Bought my parted out typhoon roller to switch everything from the typhoon posted above to mine. Not sure if it ever happened though, he got a lot of parts off me for the swap though.

That'll buff out. :roll:
It definitely looks like FP regulator area. The fuel lines also have a fitting (and hose if I remember correctly) where they go off the back of the engine into the trans tunnel. Might have started there too.
