Sunday the weather was good enough to take the car out for a spin. We did about 40 miles putting a good load on the engine. No traction at 40 mph under partial throttle.
I hopped on Rt. 2 and did multiple runs in 4th from 55 to 80 back to 55 and some more in 5th gear of the same plus hit every on-off ramp. The engine is performing as I had expected and sounds great! Definately time for an alignment though since I had everything apart. Kudos on the Tex OZ700 too. Feels like a very strong clutch and quite an upgrade from stock.

Looks like some more decent weather for this weekend too so I'll get some more miles on it again. That and maybe the alignment.
We'll see how the #'s look Dan. Right now I'll still have to baby it off the line and try to keep from breaking things.... If I can actually learn how to really drive it I'm thinking I should easily beat your predicted #'s.... big if though!
Don, I'll PM you about a visit next month.

I've got about 175 miles on it now. Took a good spin down to Boylston and then Arlington to help a bud out today. Cops are out everywhere today! Saw some sweet cars out today too. I'm thinking the rings are set.
