how many owners has that car had? I could swear this has made the 3rd time I've seen it on craigslist since I've been up here.

I tell you what...the prior owner needs punched in the face for not taking it to a real body shop. Matt is making progress on the "go" aspect so it makes up for some of the cosmetic blemishes. ETS FMIC and wineboro fuel pump installed

I stopped 3 times on the way home because i thought it was my engine acting funny, damn fuel dump will take a little getting used too, a little bit of blocking it out as well


and come on dolan, you cant forget about me putting the fuel pump bracket in up side down lol,

im not scared to admit i did it lol, even with a walk though hahaha but thats why im a noob (Dolan if you caught a look at my last name with my jacket on you might have a chuckle about that)

Here's a before and after chart of blacksunset's car...the blue lines are his base, the red lines are after fuel pump and ETS FMIC installed and a tweaked map by yours truly. Only 1 knock count at 4500-4800 rpm at 180-200 load. Pretty good for 90 oct.

^He's definately got more in it...I'm adjusting his fuel map from 6500 rpm on up to fix that 10.0 afr dip, and he's only running 10 degrees timing up top.

i cant wait to get more timing up top with the cams installed. and a better tune thanks to dolan, the tweaking will take time, and a couple pulls here and there,


i did the virtual dyno for a 4th gear pull same chart as above and it read 450 hp lol, If only if only lol, but ill stick to my low hp for now, i gotta get used to the gain and how it handles,


new brakes coming soon (if the wifey lets me lol)
