11.8 was 8# and 11.5 and 11.4 was on 11#, I trapped 102 in the 1/8 on the 11.48 pass but I lifted early because I saw a little smoke, yes I did! Previous owner evidently had removed the thermostat, And did not plug the passage between the two halves of the water pump when he did. So I fixed that and now it stays cool as a cucumber.

Also, think I found my problem with the car wanting to run warm. When I did the head gaskets I pulled the thermostat housing to check things out and previous owner had removed the thermostat, and didn’t block the passage between the the pump halves, so it had an 1.250 hole leading from the hot side of the pump directly into the pump feed, constantly recirculating hot water. So we will see how it runs now that that is taken care of

Damn thats scooting for the mods and the budget, id love to see what a cam regrind would do. I remember matt from sloppy picked up like 10mph over a stock gen 3 cam in one of his fairmonts with a baby triple 12 cam too.

Thanks man! You’ll get to find out, I dropped the k member today to do a cam swap, but most importantly fix all of this damn engine bay wiring and get rid of it! Can’t stand how ugly it is. Making some interior changes also while I’m at it.
