It was a funny sit com, but a little out of date...thought the older members might have gotten it. I was REAL young when it was on, and watched reruns.

now,it won't without ANOTHER converter change apparently
it runs 133-136 with 2.0-2.2 short times, and just feels terrible until 5000 rpm. I think Massey is concentrating on the brakes (planning on a C5 setup like Darren). I would imagine mid 130 traps in a 3800 lb (w/ driver) street car on radials and pump gas should run a high 9 with a 1.5 short time. I would love for Massey to get the 9 second run this year or next!

It's great from a 25 roll, but it bogs big time when it's stalled up. Unless I were to go with a t-brake (and a 9 inch so the rear can take it), I'm gonna go with a different converter. Most likely ditch Yank all together and go PI, I suppose. I need a converter that performs like the PT4000 did off the spray, but doesn't blow through. Next mod is the C5 fronts. Hopefully, soon. We'll see how the OT holds up at work.

Just put a set of the "Professional Products" fuel rails on my car (never liked how the NOSzle kit set my stock rail). They're nice pieces (really nice for the price). No leaks, and they're damn shiny. If anyone is looking for a set, they're pretty nice. I'll be up at Hall's Friday night and at the Canal Cruisers show on Saturday in New Haven if anyone wanted to check them out.
I also fabb'ed up a new cold air intake that moved my filter out of the engine bay. Woo, 65* F cooler intake temps in stop/go. Not bad.
Thanks Bob at EPP for the setup.

If he is planning on the C5 setup have him use the UMI conversion brackets...as long as he doesn't mind cutting the stock spindles...very nice piece and easy to do.

that thing is so beat the **** down it isnt even funny, big hole in the bumper, its such a piece! He lies, and apparently has a rare disease though, so cut him some slack....Pinocchioitis...
Every time he lies, he shrinks an inch! He was originally 7'2" a couple of years ago, now he is only 4'3"!!!!!!!

We had to call the cops on him several months ago, to get him to leave our shop. We got back from lunch and found him in a customer's car... The Sheriff arrived while we were still on the phone, I'd say it only took 30 seconds! Bob
