I went out tonight and installed my clutch firewall adjuster, and then moved on to adding the catalytic convertors to my H pipe. I figured out there was no place on my H pipe for the cats to fit aside from the very tail end, so thats where they went in temporary form. Eventually I will weld them in place, and cut/weld the ball ends on so cat back systems can bolt on as usual.
Once they were on, I added two gallons of gas to the tank and fired her up. Without the spout, the car will idle steady at 850 RPM (lumpy cam). When I plug the spout connector in, it has a small surge and lifts the idle to 1100 or so. I let it run until it was up to temp, and the temp stayed right in the center of the gauge just like it did when stock. So far I have no leaks, good oil pressure, and no real issues aside from sorting out that hunting idle. If I remember right, @jrichker has a hell of a checklist for this. Cant wait to go through that, lol.
