Well, it lost power on the trip home friday after a 90 mile drive, let it cool was fine. Sunday night I was looking for the exhaust leak. Not having the bottom 2 nuts on tha exhaust manifold was the cause of that. Problem fixed. Found broken check valve covered in Electrical tape, solved shifting problem.
Me thinks (almost certain) this pig has clogged cats, will drop exhaust tonight and fab/weld up a replacement; should (I HOPE) resolve this problem. If not I'll drop the Pineapple in to brake it in for the GFH.
