Keep in mind, this entire project was done in a 1.5 car garage, with more or less a few 3/8 ratchets... Most work was done in freakin sub zero temperatures... the entire project took less than a year and a half to finish, the greatest tool I utilized was FRIENDS you guys know who you are, and you know damn well that without you guys...that block would still be bare! Anywho, the car runs great as of right now, I have yet to take it to the track since the overhaul (mutation) BEFORE the overhaul...a little dremmel-ing here and there in the tuned port runners + baseplate + plenum, headers and 3 inch exhaust (cat removed), gutted MAF (possiably the cause of the snapped hot wire)Throttle body air foil, corvette size servo, and a few other light bolt on's...the car ran a best of 13.989 in the quarter mile at milan dragway not too shabby I think. A dyno date is scheduled for 5/22/04 (wish me luck). Hopefully I can do some further ECU programming before then... which reminds me to stress the useage of Holley's Commander 950 engine managment system... no hassle with burning chips or paying the big dollars to have it programed, needless to say, its worth it!
For now, im just going to toss whatever pictures I have, on the site... but like i said, I have tons more pictures of the car, and the finished product... hang in there!
I had to add that last one in there to show off my $15 shoes... when your on a budget, your on a budget!
I'd like to thank Adam Mc up there for stressing the useage of safety glasses, lookin good baldy!
