Default Made little movie of the car, and also finally sprung for a 12 bolt.

Here is a little movie I made, my first attempt at this, lotta mistakes.
Also as alot have known I have been abusing and exceeding the limits of the 10 bolt for years now, running as fast as 10.09 on with 1.38 short time...
Well have finally sprung for a 12 bolt from Strange, spool/33 spline..
So will be giving the t56 all it can handle soon, and will be spraying as well..
Hope to run a deep 10 still with T56, should be interesting.
Just hope engine holds up now, put lots of effrt into the car.. Since replacing the 87, I have not had the connection with the new one.. Well finally am starting to like and fix small things that should have long ago..
But the engine has lots of blowby, guessing valve guides being heads have 4-5 yrs on now, just hope it last this season, still fells strong.
Here is the Vid. Sorry, only pics in movie, could not get vids to work on laptop for some reason - some codec driver needed.

very nice looking car

I would get a larger air filter and up to the hood if the RamAir is functionable and if not get it to some cold air out of the engine bay.

Thank you,
Well for a couple years I was running an elbow that was a makeshift thing from the thirdgen this car replaced. The next larger was 3" longer and a little larger in back, I was about 1/4" of making it between the rad and T/B, also the filter now had to smash in some on rear oval to clear the water neck- stupid TPIS design, which has already been cut and rewelded as far down as I could. I am still thinking of trying to mod an ls1 lower to work somehow..

ED - Good catch, you can't open a door without the little fkr running through it.
