Looks really good. How is your car breathing? BTW. I bet those breathers aren't enuf and it could b e choking some of your RPM like it did mine.

Valve cover breathers actually have a 3/8" hose connected to them connected to a T fitting going to the back of the intake elbow. When i get this photo bucket up ill put more pics.

Good job by the way, that thing looks massive, I can see why hood clearance is such a problem

Thats the breathers I had and the exact set up except my tubes went to the back of the car so I didn't have to breathe the STINKOLA. They aren't good enuf. You need open breathers that look like small carberator round air cleaners with the filter showing on the outside.

Ha Sharp eye....I got creative. Its a lever for the ignition to start the car. Combination of that and button start the car. You know i bought those cheap procomp shaft rockers and just coudnt think of anything useful for them.

The mechanism operates the same way a Automatic transmission shifter linkage does. In fact to make it work i have an AOD linkage connected. Its something different and i didn't feel like fixing the broken ignition switch via buying a new column.

Its the first Push button shifting/ Roller Rocker ignition.
Believe it or not i at first used a toilet flusher for the lever. But it wasn't as durable. This lever works perfectly fine. and it gets alot of questions when people see it.

Looks like you pulled the air bag sensors. How heavy was that stuff and how much did you take out?

I just got fed up with the air bag light. I needed a place to mount the massive transmission cooler and the sensors were in the way. I removed the sensors and sold them on ebay, also removed the Air bag computer in the dash under the radio. (Blue box 3 bolts). No more air bag light. I say i saved 3pounds at best. I still have air bags...they just aren't connected.

My whole car needs painting. I probably have the most Effed up body on this forum. I bought the car cheap cuz the previous owner had a chick go crazy on it.....Hatchet marks all over the body, Ripped the convertible top, and poured paint into the car threw the window she smashed.

He fixed the window and top. I had to get new seats and carpet because there was so much paint. Paint on the body will come one day.

Yeah it was so bad the insurance company totalled it out. It is a Florida car. Its very clean underneath. So for dented body panels ill live with it. The lights were smashed and the tires were horrible. When i got it the back brakes were so bad the caliper piston wad directly against the rotor. No Pad in sight. Guy who sold it to me said they needed changing but DAMN.
