Default After lunch, shes going back in!!



After three weekends of screwing around and many trips to the store for random stuff like bolts and what not, shes finally going back together.

Not being a dick. You can't just throw us a pic like that and not tell us anything about it. That kind of crap only works with pics of hot women. Like this:

I didnt think I had to explain what it was! This is a forum for motors... some educated people in here... obviously someone already pointed out stock engine, headers, stock suspension...

I had some previous threads where I was experiencing different issues with my car. I bought it used and it was beat up. I had slowly been making things right with it, and after fixing a miss it started knocking horribly. Finally tore it down and noticed every bearing on the crank was toast. Old motor was dirty nasty and icky, and I wanted things to be nice and pretty before I put her back together. I cannot afford all the extra stuff rgiht now, but I wanted to have a car that would at least run.

I enjoy seeing pictures of peoples stuff... thought someone else would enjoy a share too.

If you can't give the guy credit for doing stuff him self or trying to improve his LT1, then don't say **** at all.
