Heading to Richmond VA this am to run her for the first time in almost 2 years. I'll let everyone how it goes. I've made quite a few changes in the past few weeks so it should be interesting.

Since the car was an un-registered weapon before, what are the "quite a few changes" if you don't mind sharing... I know I'm interested to see how the car is evolving now that its back on your radar and back on track. |

I know I'm interested to see how the car is evolving now that its back on your radar and back on track. I took the engine/tranny out and pulled the heads just to freshen things up. The engine only had about 8 hours on it and the heads looked good. Replaced all fuel lines, put on a hi torque starter, new battery and tires (this time running radial slicks). Also replaced master cyl and bled brakes. Tried stiffer rear springs and a different shock setting (going back to old springs and shocks next time). I'm very happy with the car. |
