Its running pretty good. Have been building a yard shed, so it has just recently gotten emptyed out. Thank God for the Big 10 springs! I had a whole wooden 10x16 shed in the bed ( less 16ft boards and prefab structure )

I finally got complete exhaust on it too. The thrush welded mufflers where just to loud, so I added a pair of cherry bomb's and a pair of 2.25" tail pipes behind each tire. Sounds nice.

Just stumbled upon this thread this morning. Nice progress and good luck with the fine tuning and little gremlins that always arise.

My 86 has a LSX swap in the future still so I'll be hangin around in the future so it will be less painful when I do.
I like to be somewhat prepared so there's minimal downtime.

Congrats, now let's get an update and more video please....
Track times....
