    I did get a brand new gas tank over the weekend. Going to weld on the CE sump box and get that ready to go in at some point. I might just let that hold till fall time and run a mechanical fuel pump for right now. That will save time in getting it out of the garage and running sooner.

    I love how she looks stock...and minus all the 80's-ish stickers. A set of widened stock rims would be sweet and would keep the sleeper factor.

    Well, aside from the rear spoiler, cowl hood and 89 iroc wheels, this one is pretty stock looking. I won't put the decals back on. Not much a fan of them. The aftermarket does offer various sizes of the factory aluminum wheels now but I just never really liked them much.
    The black car went to my ex brother in law and he is talking about doing the stock wheels like you mentioned on it. But he also talks a lot! Haha

    The throttle response is absolutely instant. It kinda sounds like a, um, dirt late model when they are coming down the back straight to start a feature. They snap the throttle to clear it out a little. That instant rev then back to idle...

    Thanks guys. I have to wait till probably Wednesday or Thursday till I can drive it. Need a driveshaft.

    Trans is a 200 4R for now. It's probably going to stay that way also. I have a lot of money in it to change to anything else.

    Got some miles on the car and the air/fuel close to where it should be. Doing a hard pull on it through second gear and it started slipping pretty badly. I could drive it around gently but any throttle in second it just slips. So. Transmission is out and taking it out to Janis transmission in Akron tomorrow morning. He came highly recommended by PTC and Rossler.
    I knew it was on borrowed time but I as hoping it would have made it till the end of summer at least. Oh well.

    Janis is doing billet internals, Governor, extra clutches and a few other things. Said it should be at or near $2500.
