haha, i am one of those noobs. any information at any time is always helpful and appreciated. thank you

Thanks for the tip. The car is in pieces right now undergoing a rebuild. I will definitely keep this in mind when the car is ready. This is also good because when i put in #80 injectors i definitely want to give as much info and impactful parts installed as possible. Maybe get a new converter...

Thanks. I would call this “stage 1”, The underside. The upper shows well, but has some rusty panels, dents scratches. It’s a project where my family and I do what we can with our skill set and tools. The rest will have to go to a pro. September is the big month. Hopefully.

Thanks. Busy is for sure. Haven’t really thought about 1/4 mile times. My first one went 11.6@113mph back in the 90’s. I stand behind these cars that it doesn’t take much to go fast. I think this time I want to try pro touring. Clean, tight underside, lowered stance. 18” wheels.. but, I will not...

Hey guys, it's been a while since i've logged since my intro. I received some great help from some good folks here. Thought i'd show off a little production as to where I am with the car. Just a recap with my resto/build, when i bought the car it ran like it was hating life. A MAF/tranlater...

I'm going to go with the Kirban Vacuum kit as well as the SS brake lines. They don't have stock on the kit at the moment. A couple of days ago she mentioned they expect a new shipment in this week so I will follow up tonight. I won't be looking a building a drag car this time around, so i won't...

Thanks for all the help guys. I got one coming from a member. I appreciate the support.

Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone would recognize or has info on this torque converter. All i could see is a stamped number. I've googled and and couldn't find anything other than Hughes Performance makes red torque converters. I called them and their numbers don't coincide with the ones...

Ya I’ve had the car for three weeks now. I’ve done some “tune-up/maintence” work. I’m sure this won’t be the last broken thing I find. Lol I’m composing a list of things to get.

ya i know. I thought if someone had a used one for sale i'd buy it. Usually when i buy something new, someone will say "why didn't you say something, or ask me, so n so has one, or I have". lol

Found something new today. I didn't break it this time, i swear. I have witnesses. Broken belt tensioner. After i replace this i'm getting rid of the strap and invest into the RJC bracket. If anybody has one please let me know.

I’m getting some spare parts from a couple boys here. Probably not a bad idea. Thank you everyone for your help. BTW, I have an inch/lb torque wrench in order.

Nope clearly I did not. I feel like such an idiot. I should know better. RTFS. Thanks a lot. thanks Dave, pm sent.

Oh nice. Thanks. I’ll check that out.
