Well....Lets see now

When my 95GT was stock, it had the following problems:

1) It had the power of a Worn Out Fart

2) At idle ... It sounded just like our Postman's little mail wagon

3) It's self esteem was so far down in the dirt ..............
It refused to turn into our Local Sonic where all the fast cars hang

You Know what I'm talkin about here

But Hey ... Its more better ... Now!

Gee I feel fortunate. The only probs I had with the stock set up was the harmonic balancer, rear transmission seal leak and intake was making a backfire noise when it was cold. So I did what anyone would do, and replaced everything....
