Well, since nobody has been able to come out, or just hasn't been interested, i'll let you all setup a date and location. The weather is starting to get nice out, ready for spring and summer. It would be nice to have a few cruises somewhere like corpus. So what's next?

You missed the whole rant he had about how a 4 cylinder can make 300 horsepower easy.
"All you have to do is upgrade the injectors, muffler, exhaust manifold and wires and thats worth at least... 10 horsepower?"
We looked up the VTEC SI that just came out and it is pushing 197 horsepower.
197 + 10 = 300 lol
I ended up working on my 86 and started it up and I have a leak at the cooler line at the tranny and its leaking fluid right by the starter. So i went and got some cooler lines at the JY.
I just need to get some used tires, one of the Goodyear Eagle GSC tires dry rotted or split and leaked out the air while it was sitting there in the garage.

I suggest that we should meet at the Fudrucker's on 410 and Ingram on a Saturday. It's pretty crowded down there and we don't have to spend $$$ on bbq.
BTW, my motor should be at the machine shop next month...finally

What? Me? Drunk? No way. I wasn't when I posted this anyway.

The paint is on has some runs to work out but I didn't make it to the track ran out of time. And still have a nasty miss to diag I'm thinking plugs and wires will take care of it.

What did the car run Thomas? I missed the qualifying passes b/c of a company bowling tournament.

I didn't make it to the track, ran out of time. Ended up having issues with the ignition, then found out tonight that the carb is leaking into the intake and fouling the plugs. Going to pick up a msd 6al and a rebuild kit for the carb. may try and take it out Wednesday night or Friday.
