woo woo yellow car came alive last night. idled it for about 5 minutes before deciding to pull it apart to replace the unknown aged waterpump with the brand new one i forgot i had so the car is basically back to the same point it has been for a year lol. but it DID run for 5 minutes, t78 open 4" downpipe huge streetport = way too loud for inside garage action .



but yea now I'm gonna leave it apart again until i receive my order of SS so I can build a nice battery tray then I'll put it back together and it should be good to go. it was idling like a ******* champ. no revs cause i didnt attach the cable to the gas pedal yet



video sometime this year
