Hey George,

I have replaced the windshield, two tires, and a few of the little bits that were missing...the interior light bulb cover, etc...

Traction is not great (same tires on the rear though), as I can get the rear squirming all of the way through 2nd gear. LSD is tops on my list to install.

The motor is running great! It really does operate like any car of its vintage. It has been very cold and it starts right up and once warm it is raring to go! I do a decent amount of highway commuting and mileage is not too bad but I have been using way too much throttle to calculate the mileage yet :-) I can't believe how well that car builds speed through 3rd and 4th. I am going to fabricate an air box of sorts to shield the air filter from the air coming through the radiator and from the turbulance created by the accessories to see if I can make it even better.

What do you think about a bigger MAF and injectors? Are there 19's in there now? That will be a long time off anyway but if it worth another 20hp or so, I may look into it. I want to complete the emissions test before I make any real changes. Oh, and did you mention that the car was using a different cam than stock?

I have not yet replaced the heater core...almost warm enough here now to not be miserable so I will just wait until late summer before getting into it.


More later!
Thanks!
Ed
