Your just going to have to take my word on it ;)

so I took her all around La Marque, I would have gone onto the freeway but I frogot to bolt the rear fenders down :oops: . Aside from the fast idle(friggin linkage is binding), she's a great driver. plenty of power too!

Its been on the freeway, whoohoo. Discovered a few more issues, mainly I need to go through the suspension/steering. this thing is a handful. I'm about to pull apart the throttle body/tps and try and find the binding. Also because of the idle I got some nasty wheel hop, so i got to check the front tranny mount and re-adjust the shifter. Its a friggin hoop-tee but its back on the road :hillbilly:

That must be exciting! Can't wait to see/hear it. When are you going to go on longer road tests?
