To me though, nothing makes it more worthwhile than taking a friend who doesn't know what they are about themselves into for a small test drive. Hitting full boost and watching your passenger scramble to find the door handle or anything to hold onto before you let off is just priceless.
I just did that to my mom this weekend.... she was pretty pist at me

LoL! I think I'm gonna setup a hidden dash camera just to record peoples reactions.



Good to see you keeping this project alive man. I thought you only needed a couple things to finish the car up? What's going on with it now?

i will post a vid and pics but a vid is BETTER, you guys are gonna love the way it sounds

Man for my first port job and rebuild , i did pretty good that gave me the boost i needed to trust myself with other peoples motors

KILO aka Jesus Padilla worked his *** off for 5 straight days fixing leaks and doing a superb harness......hes also going to do the tuning on the dyno when it breaks in

as for the car i need a bigger BOV and misc gauge pieces so i can get them to work

its sound like a bridgeport if you hold it at 1500 rpm steady, i am running premix and its awsome as i said i will post up a vid i just need to find someone witha good camera so you wont get the youtube treatment!!!

All of us that have stuck with it and finished it know that it gets ruff at times but once its all said and done the results are great and you cant stop smiling.

LoL @ the first comment on your vid. Thats gotta be the worst camera ever. No offence man but it makes your exhaust sound like ***. I'm sure it sounds much better in person.

Glad to see you stuck with the car man. Now get your *** out there and get some better videos of that thing driving around!




I wonder why this thread hasn't been shuffled off to the non tech section like every other build...
