Yeah, it's definately built around the bottle!!! It's horrible, I can't 60' better than high 1.6's on the motor, it like bogs!!! It still moves out decent though, went 10.89 @ 127, which i'm thinkin the mph should pick up a little with the new intake/throttle body setup and headers and the extra .5 pt of compression from gettin the heads fixed cuz they had to be shaved to fix 'em.

I don't know, this is just what i've been told after I took the trans out on the dyno, my tranny guy told me never to hit that big of a shot on the dyno again, he said it's really hard on the trannies and motors and can do a lot of damage.

Thanks dude, i've been working on gettin things back in order, I applied with the phone company and they got back to me a few days later and said they wanted me to go take their basic electricity test, that was a week ago, had to take the test today. I went out and bought a book and tought myself basic electricity in the last week and took the test this morning and passed, i'm so excited!!!! Now I just gotta wait for them to call me and take it from there!!! If I get hired, i'll be in a much better financial position and be able to start really enjoying my hobby again!!!!

racing doesnt start here till atleast april, usually may. I can wait, i need to just throw a set of heads on the car, and i want to redo my fuel system and do wheelie bars so i wont touch it for atleast 2 months i need about 2-3 weeks tops to get it done, so in the meen time i have this to fix my need for speed!!







yes, winter has been bad (good to me) not bad enouph tho, it keeps snowing then gets warm and rains, then snows, then warm and rain, it sucks. i just want it to stay cold and snow for the winter, it makes for shitty riding with all the snow and thaw. we had one point with over 3 feet on the ground, not there is not a drop left. it sucks
