Glad you got it running Rich! I backed mine out of the garage so I could get a new overhead door put in. I love the smell of Sunoco Supreme! wave


The end is near.....

Yeah. That just pumped me up hearing the Gtx roar to life. Congrats and you are right there; close to 10s. You will hit it with the 123 mph trap speed
Best of luck

Glad to see it come right back to life.
Andy, any idea how much more the dyno headers make over in frame headers?

Thanks again to all for the encouragement and for being cool over the years.

Finally got it out of the attached garage and into the shop.

Lots of work ahead.
Not just on the car, but on the work/storage areas themselves too.

Emotions are high/every little step is a milestone/there is a really strong sense of fun that I have been missing for a long time. My little family is into it (as you can see), and that really,really helps.

Cold idle....

You guys are too kind, thank you. I didn't think anyone would keep watching after the car stuff was over. Racerx the cam is mentioned earlier in replies. The exhaust is a pair of ultra flo behind an x pipe I made.
