Thanks!!
Got the plates registered, put insurance back on and even passed emissions today. LOL! Still needs a serious alignment so I can really beat it. Drove it about 35 miles today and everything seems good and no leaks ! Off to the car show down the street!

You've deleted all the emissions crap and still passed the smog test!? I didn't know that could be done.

yeah, For OBD2 all they do is check the PCM for readyness checks and SES light. if his car went on the sniffer it would fail. lol

That's why I'm glad I got a 94 cause I doubt mine would pass.

I got the alignment done yesterday and finally got on it a bit. Car pulls hard to 7k and hit 120 no prob. No leaks and runs great so far. Cant wait to get the tune touched up.

Thanks!
Stock lifters and timing set. Just swapped them over. Lifters only had 33k and the timing set was a new GM stock replacement when I did the LE2 on the stock block. All looked like brand new so I reused it. !
