72 Satellite Gen III Hemi Restomod

I have Dr Diff's true trac II so it's different than a sure grip. No clutches, so I'm not sure that it would help.
It wouldn't. Whine like yours comes from either poorly hardened gears, like motive, or inproper setup. It's been a minute since I taught this, but depending on if it whines in accell, decel or cruise determines where the issue is. If it's just crap gears, well nothing will ever fix that. I did one set of motive's gears. I got them dead nuts. Pattern was spot on, preload was on point, etc. Test drove it and all was quiet. Customer called and said they were perfect. 6 months later, he stops by and says it started a slight whine. I asked around to my friends that also set up gears and turns out there are quite a few companies getting substandard gear sets from overseas. Hope some of this helps.

I'm worried about that. Every time the timing was checked, it was perfect, but still making a lot of noise.
 
So if you recall a few posts earlier I was having issues with my fuel vapor tank and my fuel tank puking gas. I ended up taking it off and just routing the lines into the fender with nothing on them. Today I filled the tank up (over 20 gallons) got home and it did the same thing. This time I noticed that one of the vent lines was actually disconnected. I was baffled at how a tank with a vent open to atmosphere could become pressurized. After I depressurized the tank, a few minutes later it was still dripping. I talked with Aeromotive about the issue and the best we could come up with is that I overfilled the tank to the point where the vents couldn't function. I think for now I'm going to crack my gas cap when I get home after filling up. I'd like to put some kind of relief valve on the filler neck, but I'm not sure something like that exists. The good news is my vapor canister can go back in.

Uhm, why are there no clamps on those hoses attached to a gas tank?
