I have to admit I went a little overboard this year and bought a bunch of goodies for the car, I was wondering what have you guys bought to improve your cars? I'll go first:

bought a Fitech goefi, hoping to solve some issues I've been having this year,

bought the holly hydramat that mounts to the bottom of my intank fuel pump for some piece of mind

bought a american powertrain hydraulic throwout bearing, I'm going to see if this works better than my hydraulic slave setup,

bought a all aluminum roadrace a833 transmission from passonperformance, still running my stock and its the last thing that needed work, I wanted the new 5 speed but its double the cost and wait time, and I don't want to cut up my floor pans for a different transmission...

This for the shop a Millermatic 215 and my son bought me a new cart for it.

4 new tires for the Ramcharger. And new pads for the front disc brakes. And today ordered a new lower radiator hose.

For the Cuda I have had some Black Friday purchases arriving. Big one being my gauges.




We picked up a new car for my Wife the Friday before Christmas. 2016 BMW X1

I bought... nothing...
haha!

My car is done, dosen't need anything else and just maintainence items or track day expenses from now on.

It was nice to be able to stop buying stupid car parts for myself for once and buy friends and family decent X-mas gifts!

I got my car back before Christmas.

Things I need to fix is the exhaust and drone, some cosmetic work, and getting some time behind the wheel in.

New Tires, Carpet, Sound Deadener, rear seat, street brake pads, and a lightweight/ compact heater for the Valiant.

Bought a take out magnum 360 for my 69 Valiant to replace the 340 that died last summer. I'm going to start building the 360 in the new year.
I brought what was left of that 340 to a friend who builds engines and he put it back together, we just Dynoed it yesterday.

sounds awesome guys! we should post some pics later when we finish I have to finish building our house before I can work on the old girl...

Well, the radiator hose doesn't fit, different shape and number than the old one. They say they have the proper one in stock. Back to the store tomorrow, watching 'Harry Potter Sorcerer's Stone now.

Tell more about the Passon 4 speed....is it the overdrive model?

it is not, I wish I could have gotten the best of both worlds, but you gotta pick one or the other so I decided to do the 23 spline with the 2:47 road race setup, the main case and tailhousing is aluminum, I already have a 11" big block aluminum bellhousing from american powertrain, I mostly do autox, would like to do some roadracing in her someday, I'm not drag racing so I didn't need the 18 spline setup (that and the price tag starts over $3000) whereas this setup was around the $2000 mark which is a easier pill to swallow, especially with our terrible dollar exchange rate

Bought myself a 440 Source rotating kit, Eddie heads and an intake for my low deck 512 build. Dad talked me into doing the motor this year instead ordering a front and rear kit from Dr. Diff to overhaul the brakes.

Now you can go fast


but can't stop

Who needs to stop?

That's what trees are for. Right?

Well, I can stop as quickly as a stock 10" disc upfront and a 10" drum outback will allow me to.

If it was good for the '70s and '80, then you can't ask for any more than that.

I picked up an Evap kit from Classic Auto Air for the Dart

and this sweet 2-post LIFT!!
