^i did something like that kinda... i disconnected the battery to change the started(didnt remove the batter just moved the terminals) when shaking the car n whatnot they reconnected i ended up welding my ratchet to the starter nut and intake...(now use the ratchet as a 3/8's breaker bar because its all welded together on the inside) since then i REMOVE the battery completely

^

I've sparked my ratchet that way, but never that bad.
that would have sucked something fierce

I kinda already knew it, but it has been reinforced over and over again, get the car running and driving the way it was supposed to before trying to mod it to make it faster/better.

take your time when sanding down any and every dent and uneven surface will show when finished and you will always notice it.

you can roll your fenders but you cant back up.

when gas pedal snaps off tie a random wire or string to throttle cable and pull for throttle. lol
