I put the 12 inch in the car and am driving it with a blaupunkt four way amp. I was worried about the drain on the amp and battery but when i took her out for a drive it seemed alright the lights did dim a bit but not anymore then it had before... oh of course pics of how i did it.

hey everyone,
Sorry for not posting in a long time but i haven't had anything to say about the car. everything is alright execpt for some little things that the weber is going to fix. But now there is a new problem... the oil neck is rusting pretty bad, what do I do? Can I repace it(the neck) with a n aluminum one? Do i use a nipple off the intake manifold to vent the oil pan? also what do you all theink about using a microtech mt-4 for a fuel computer and putting a weber ida throttle body on instead of a weber the cost total for the weber w/o manifold(i already have it) is about 1000.00 with all the parts i need( fuel pump, egt system, weber carb, fuel regulator, and air filtering system) where the fuel system will cost about 600 for ecu and wiring harness 400.00 for throttle body, 100 for the fuel pump, 300 for injectors...
One more thing, lol, I NEED a GSL-SE suspension (rearend and associated front end) so I can do newer wheels and tires( my wheels are bent and at 80 mph i get a wiggle going on, not good at those speeds) where can i get it? anyone have a spare they do not want? oh yea i am here in the NW. thanks

you want to vent the nipple on the oil filler, the factory vents it into the intake, but not all the time.
efi would be a lot better than the carby, similar peak power, but the efi will have better mileage, and driveability.

If you want a great carb set up go with a racing beat intake and a 500cfm edelbrock thunder series carb.
