A picture is worth.... 200,000 words?
We've been through a lot together
It's pretty amazing when I start to think of all the stock parts still on the car.
Stock fuel pump, even after a few thousand pounds of N2O have been shoved down its throat
Stock t-stat. Stock injectors, stock MAF.
I killed the stock shortblock forever ago (N2O oops), bent 7 of the 8 connecting rods. it ran OK like that, but I swapped in a fresh stock shortblock, it now has over 130K on it...
Tranny decided to stop shifting amid 8 or 9 back to back passes on the street one night, 560 ft/lbs will do that. It owed me nothing, and was rebuilt better and is still in great shape 140K+ later.
I have beat the crap out of the car, its banged, dinged, and dented, but it gets me where I need to go. I still knock down about 10 MPG with it all day, and it gets me to and from work daily with more reliability than anything else I have ever owned
