Lowes has the porter cable 6 gal compressors on sale for $99   The cfm thing is not that important on tools like impacts and ratchets because they don’t run continuously like a sander or a drill does.  The compressor will usually be able to keep up as they are used in short bursts.

I would suggest a 6 gal compressor with a honda eu2000 generator.  That is what I have and both units are lightweight and very portable.  The 6 gal compressor will run air tools like impacts and ratchets.  It will have trouble keeping up with things like sanders  grinders and drills.

The 20 gal compressor will require a much bigger generator and if you plan to just fill it once at home and not plug it in at the track you won’t be able to run any air tools.  You will pretty much be limited to filling tires.

I have always seen them up by the back of the seat.  I figured that if I could put it down by the water pump next to the EGT sensor I could avoid the patch cable.  Doesn’t sound like that is recommended though.

 

thanks for the help!

Thank you for your offer, however I already went ahead and ordered a new one this morning.  After Freddy’s comments I realized that I could either spend two – three hours running around town trying to find and fabricate a pipe that kind of works or I could focus on my day job for two -three hours and earn enough money to buy the right tool.

Thank you for the offer!

They are like a much smaller version of a older ford 4 wheel drive spindle socket.

 

They remove the nut which holds the wheel hub on.  I can’t get this picture to load. Here is a link
