[QUOTE="1967eleanor, post: 13426200, member: 32170"] been working on the car quite a bit this past month. Ive been trying to work out some of my bugs. I'm still having an issue with the car running lean, and after 3 weeks of diagnosis and checking/replacing everything from sensors, to checking wiring, I've come to the conclusion that the car needs a better tune. So i'm looking into the moates quaterhorse system. Its my only option without spending thousands on a new management such as F.A.S.T. or Big Stuff EFI. However once I put the new motor in I am going to have to. [IMG]https://sphotos-a-lga.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/733767_10153032933095478_1654063825_n.jpg[/IMG] On to some other upgrades. Gutted the interior and put HushMat on the floor. [IMG]http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/6048/7uoy.jpg[/IMG] Made a custom cover for the mirror hole in the door panel.
