Name My Truck

This may sound silly to some but i need a name for the stage 1.

My friends 109 exmod 2.25 is called Larry.
My G/Fs dads's 109 2.25 is called Bella

But i cant think of a suitable name i like for the stage 1. I think as its a V8 it should be a male name but i dont know what. Any suggestions.

Random cutting out and shoddy idle

the stage 1 v8 on my drive idles really badly when the choke is out and wont run for very long before cutting out. when the chocke is in it runs smoother but after about 5 mins of running at idle it just dies with no warning. Any ideas?

does the 24v system have two 12V batterys or just one? if its 2 then you could just wire the radio system up trhough one of the batts if you want a simple cheap solution.
