hahaha Thanks guys!! I really app. everyone's awsome comments on the car!! As my sig says, full Racing Beat Exhaust. For streetability..umm lol it isn't all that bad. The car hates and I mean hates anything below 3500rpm. The car bucks like crazy at low rpms, I am guessing between the light weight flywheel and my vaccum advance gone plus the 1/2 bridge port is what you get. As for milage, 148,000 on the chassi and around 12,000 on the rebuild (or so the owner claims).

Personally I feel that the car has more power in it. I just bought her about a month ago and the car has stock ignition, gotta go. Just bought a 2nd gen leading coil and a Jacobs FC1000 ign. amp. Also the carb on the car (650 Holley) prob needs to be re-jected or rebuilt, the car runs soooo ungodly rich! I wouldn't be surprised to see 9:1 when I dyno it lol.
I am planning on seeing what numbers this thing will put down. shooting for like what, 160-180 rwhp? Also, possibly check the timing that the previous owner dialed in. As for power, the car doesn't really come alive until around 5,000-5500, thats where she starts to pull pretty hard all the way to around 8500. I am sure the car will rev higher w/ the port, but it doesn't feel like it has anymore juice after 8500.

All these little bugs I will be sorting out very soo and keeping you guys posted on how it comes along as well. But for $1500, you can't beat it
