Got my baby back!

I missed last year's driving season. But not this year! Here's some pics from RPM Motorsports. Thanks for the help and hospitality Joe and Dan!

The porting is by Joe's hand not mine. If I did it, it would look VERY different.

I'm definitely going to have it dynoed after the break-in. I'm also planning on having it to the track this summer.

The GSL-SE in the one pic isn't mine. That's another customer's car at the shop. I did have three for a short period last summer. I bought one for the 15 inch wheels that were on the car as well as the lsd rear end, among other things. It has since been chopped up by my sawzall (shitload of fun!), relieved of virtually every wire loom, nut, bolt, and dropped off at the wreckers.
I do still have a GS in my garage that's more rust than metal.
I found the carb and intake on this forum. It was only used for a mock-up, but was never run.
The flywheel is from tweakit in Australia. Their prices are better than what I found at Racing Beat.

It had better be! I've got a lot of lost time to make up for. There's only so much fun that I can have in my truck.

Awesome. Cool intake.

Let me know when you are hitting the track. Hopefully I can make it down too.

B-ACE...I like that! For some reason, I can't fit the pronunciation thing in my sig line anymore. I'll be appearing in Ottawa for sure this year. I've got relatives up there and they've got beer in the fridge so...

Thanks...I got the intake as a package deal with the carb. Now I've gotta hunt down some fittings for the oil lines into it. I'll let ya know about the track. I should maybe get some launch pointers from Nismo first.

I knew you would make an appearance! And look, you brought gifts...more pics. Thanks. Saves me from having to freeze my *** of taking 'in-the-car' pics. I'm glad that I took the time to scrub out the engine bay!

Yeah, there's gonna be a BCM this year. We'll actually have working cars to lead the pack with. We've got the fuel thing figured out too.
