What computer did you have before? Were you running a AL9 at one time?

I think you should ditch the fuel injection and get a victor jr intake and a nice 650 double pump or a 750 vacuum, that thing would be a monster.

I would just chalk it up as normal. It is a hot rod, it is supposed to smell, be loud, and smoke a little

I hate smoke too....I alway think it looks trashy if they smoke all the time, but if it is only when you are ratting on it....prolly looks bad ***. My wife tells me I have "that" stinky car...you know the one that people see and tink there is something wrong...people that don't know any better. Doesn't bother me...keeps them away
