because he is smart!

Modular2v · Feb 7, 2007

if that intake is anything like my victor jr...you are going to have to lose the brake booster and converty to manual brakes because there is not a hole tapped for a vac source

Graydon5oh · Feb 7, 2007

iv go a vacuum port on it and run it to my vacuum tree so i can have ac and power brakes

1990Coupe · Feb 8, 2007

GSXRMIXXER · Feb 8, 2007

my 0.2 cents

1. those euro taillights need to go!
2. Clean up the overspray in the bay
3. Less progress you make me feel useless

looks good you have made more progress than me and i've had mine for almost 1 year.

Graydon5oh · Feb 8, 2007

and yes bad tailights i know i get the idea guys but atleast there not the chormed out ones it could be worse

Graydon5oh · Feb 19, 2007

itssss alllivveeee.... ok well sorta iv still got a few lil kinks to work out and then she will be fine, but anyways besides the one legging 4cyl rear end and narrow tires she is pretty quick for the time being im just gonna put a stock cutout hood and a 82 gt hood scoop on it because of clearance issues but anyways ill get more pics and some better quality vids tomorrow but here is a lil shot of what she sounds like

Graydon5oh · Feb 20, 2007

i used a rebuilt 5 speed out of a 95 gt with a new mini starter and ford racing lightweight flywheel and a ram clutch topped off with a steeda tri ax, the fuel sysetem consist of dropping the tank and removing the pump and replacing it with fuel line, inserted a carter in line pump after the filterused factrory hard line up to the drivers side fender well where i routed it up to the regulater and then to the carb, ignitiong system i just got rid of the duraspark box and went with a pro comp hei box makes it easy all u have to hook up is the power, exaust hooker headers flowmaster off road h pipe and mufflers, the motor is a 306 stock heads and a mild cam forged pistons and pretty much mostly stock, 150 shot of n2o, and thats all i can think pf but ask away

Graydon5oh · Feb 20, 2007
