Default Finally out of the garage

Well had it out most of the weekend fighting bugs and whatnot. Almost ready for the track tho so that's good - maybe next Saturday??

Thank you - all work done at home so that's really a compliment! VERY budget(y) race car too, not much money put into it. Just a nice combination of parts that work great together.

Stock shortblock 130k - stock untouched heads (save for springs, pushrods, locks etc..) Small cam, bolt on, and boost basicallly.
