It's running, that's about all I can say as of now. The car isn't licensed yet, so I haven't really driven it except to the tire store for the 315 DR's lol... Felt pretty angry but I was taking it easy. I need to throw some tuning/logging software on it and dial in the idle, check for knock retard etc... I'll be in touch with you before too long to schedule some dyno time.

Ya I know, I'm already on borrowed time with that 10 bolt. I'm trying to piece together a 9" before this summer.

Speaking about LTx cars, I gotta 95 TA in the shop right now. Doing a AFR 195 LT4 heads, custom grind cam, Edelbrock LT4 intake, LT headers, full exhaust this week, its about done, I gotta install the water pump, finish running plug wires to a new opti-crap and drop the radiator and condenser back in her and then she is ready to go on the rollers for tuning. Its been awhile since I worked on an old LT1 car, what a RPITA they are, this one should run pretty good.

Cool man, and likewise. Should be a fun summer indeed. I'm getting anxious lol..... With this crazy weather we've been having, I have a feeling it's going to be a late start for our summer.......

LOL... I think you need to have your own RUNNING fbody before you can start the smack talk on my car there buddy. You're right tho, my car is slow and the stock rear should hold up just fine. I just don't know how to drive so I'm afraid my lack of driving skills would break the stock rear. Ya,,,, that's it. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

If my tachometer wasn't so far off, I'd be happy to run em', Elliot would never know HAHAHAHA..... j/k

Sounds like it's gonna be a beast! Don't throw away the tuning software just yet cause I'm gonna need you to dial my ride in as soon as Cody's done with the swap
