Congratulations, Well done Sir!!

 

I'll dig thru my spares box, and see if I have a decent TO laying around.

 

Congrats Glen!...one day you will be exempt and then you can bolt on those headers and a nice side draft so people can actually see that paint on the engine.

 

Hmm, today? Finished up swapping the T2 front subframe, painted the engine bay, installed brake booster, clutch master and all associated lines.

debating on going back out and installing the dash

 

congrats!

 

Well for the past couple days I've been taking the car around and well the battery is back to where it was before "the incident", now starts like nothing happened. phew
I'm holding off on the headlight mod for now. The hood will be coming off to fix it up, at that time I'll complete it then.
Divin, did going through your points fix the miss fire?
If so what do I need to get rid of my awful miss fire?

Tomorrow I'm going to summer school so I'll be drained of money pretty fast. :'(

 

today I started my headlight mod, by building some brackets, going to keep the flipup, remove the seven inch round light and add cadillac ballasts and projector bulbs, then top it off with the audi l.e.d's all around the projector. Hopefully it works out as good as it did on paper lol

 

thanks i think my buddy has one for me, but i just keep forgetting to ask him for it

 

Jim,

I can't see why the AP would even try to work if you are already at 2500 RPMs. Are you sure that it will still inject at those speeds?

 

AP functioning is position related, not vacuum, so it should squirt as long as the arm
is traveling.

 

interesting

 

got my oil pan back in ...

any ideas...???

 

Today, I got some new wheels on, Enkei 92 15x7

 

4x110?

 

Nice looking rims! Also interested in the bolt pattern. Maybe you're the one on CL with the extra 4 FB rims haha, nice pick on wheels and welcome!

 

thanks! 4x110 and yes, that is me on CL with the extra FB rims haha

 

Been spending a few non-car evenings, trying to remember normal life. Surely won't last, though - - the garage is calling me.

 

and it's saying "You must come remove this transmission" over and over in a mysterious whisper!! LOL

 

Cfamilyfix: your camber played are on the wrong sides. You'll notice the slots are closer to one side, in your case the front. That is to add caster which needs to be towards the rear.

 

Beat me to it! Good catch Chris.

Thank you...I will correct it in the coming days. It looks like I'm gonna have to have my strut shafts turned down a little to get everything together as well.

I'm glad someone caught it...I wasn't sure which is why I posted those pics. Thanks again.

 

Well, I ended up buying a new battery today.
We had the old one tested at the Walmart and it only put out 98 amps from the 875 amps it should be putting out.
Yesterday I called Rotary Performance again to bring the car down to check out the miss fire this up coming Thursday.

 

today i did the great deed of putting new o-rings in my beehive. omg im so happy its done the worst hour of my life it was torture trying to pull that P.O.S. off lol never again going to normal front mount oil cooler next time it leaks i hate that stupid beehive!

 

Cost me a $20 install kit an old radio out of an old build, and leftover speakers, and an hours worth of rerunning wires to not chop up my factory harness. not to bad for free hahaha

 

Drove mine for the first time in a couple months and realized how bad I need a carb rebuild.
