I've dropped my engine in about 10 minutes by myself. It's yours if you want it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Damn it I feel compelled to make a road trip Friday. Get the motor in Saturday and spend the week getting to know it.
Put it up on the trailer and got to Houston on Thursday. We can talk Thursday over email. |

Saweet, I just did a jet change to accomidate for the hot humid weather.
AF ratio is 13.5 to 1 at wide open throttle Car is much quicker. Alignment is done shoscks are ready New rack in Steering is WAY better Going to get the fiberglass doors on and pull head light motors. So we may not run away with XP we are going to give it the best fight we can I am even washing and waxing it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) |

Ok so things I did to prepare.
4 wheel alignment found I had the passeger rear wheel toed out about 1/4" (Don't know how that happened) But I tweeked them both in to 1/16" in with -.7 camber front is -.5 camber -8 castor and 1/4" total toe out. Tires are all ready Fiberglass doors are on -26 pounds each !!!!!!!!!! Engine is running extremely well. (jetted for 10000% humidity and 90 degrees air temp. (typical houston weather) Just have to change oil and clean up engine compartment and interior is dusty. We went zipping around town today and made sure everything is tight. I don't think the car has ever been better. Just put it up on the trailer and we are done. |
