I don't think it'll be all that bad joe. maybe a bit of smoke.what is the forcast for the 22ed. I get the first
parking spot right after joe's 7. or 'I GET SHOTGUN' Lol
did you do anymore to your car after Mel and i left the other day ? it's off the jack stands,,,right ? heatshields ?
radiator/oil cooler ? whats going on the 'barby',,,carne'asada, ?? MMmmm and coffee ?? Lol
the important thing now is to NOT hurry, thats when things get over looked. make a check list of do's. and how old is the gas thats in there now ?maybe a new fuel filter ? coolant/water wetter. thermostat,replace that broken vacum hose,new clutch fluid,yada,yada,yada.plugs, air filter, a 5th of wild turkey
(in case theres problems) base ball bats, Lol

haha i agree mark! i did some more work on it after you guys left. the heatshields are on (at least those that i'm going to put back on), i still need to put on the radiator and oil cooler but thats an hour at the most, once i get the rad and cooler on ill take it down off the jackstands. i'm going to go to kragens to get all the fluids i need. i have a new air filter, fuel filter and oil filter ready to go on. i bought two sets of sparkplugs, one autolite (i figure they might get pretty fouled during startup and a set of ngks to put in after i know it will run. other than that its a matter of hooking up the wiring harness and a few hoses and buying a battery. i should drain the tank so i'll get to that before sat. i was definately thinking carne and pollo asada for the bbq thats some good eats right there. let me know if anyone wants something different. the seven is at my parents house in la jolla if you need directions let me know. you can also email me at buschj01@student.ucr.edu see you guys later,
-joe
