I have a pic floating around of my install...wasn't easy...stripped a bolt that wasn't budging.






I had a similar problem just the other day, where I tried to remove the air pump from a parts shell (85), and I stripped one of the bolts. Now I can't get the stupid thing out! All I want to do is get the thermal reactor system working properly again since I don't have the money for a Racing Beat system yet. But as much of a "PITA" it is, I still have fun workin' on my '79. What can I say? I just like working on stuff.

Honestly the car sounded REALLY rough in that video. It was the first start-up so the car had not even been tuned.



As for a BOV, I am running a Turbonetics Raptor. It is supposed to be a good compromise between street and stip. Fairly affordable as well, and sounds great...I think that it was around 250.
