She lives! and thats how my day went, how bout u?
Sounds like fun. The only signifcant thing I did today was go to the cop shoppe and show them that I had a put a front licence plate on and I had taken my rear licence plate cover off. Got pulled over last week for those reasons and had 8 days to fix it and show them. Not quite as much fun as finishing a turbo-motor project, but I'll take whatever I can get.
Pulled a battery tray for my buddy's '86 LX and picked up a free set of LX tailpipes. Then I worked and sold three grand, so yeah, it was a good day. Ash
Well, I got taken by the fake ebay email scam, but I got my bank to suspend my account before any damage was done( Hallejuyah !). So I get a new account tommorrow ! That was the down side. The upside: cruising home from work with the top down on a beautiful sunny day ! I'm not going to let the evildoer's bring me down!
Got my exhuast welded in, muffler shop couldnt figure out to conjure up a 3in dp...they ran a 2.5 crush bend then 3 inch to my muffler. Bright side, this should set me up for a easy bolt in 3" mandrel bent stinger DP. Another bright side, fed my baby some 92 octane tonight at midnight, did a couple of pulls on the open road...10 psi is pretty insane right now (much more mmmfff than the merkur @ 15-17ish psi). I'm taking it easy on her as she gets broke in, alot of new stuff in the block, dont want to jump the gun and pay for it!! Now all i need is a gold mine....so stinger, whens your mark down's on your dp's start? buddy ol'pal
