ORIGINAL: Obsol3te

Welp, got the car back on the road sunday.
Base timing is a bit off, had to take the dizzy out.
Just fixed a few small things and put in new SS brakelines...
Wow they made a huge differance, didn't expect it to be that good.
I can stop somewhat decently now.
Going to be putting in these 73mm SVO calipers in once I get a cobra MC, think that's the one with the 1" bore.
Anyways, my car will soon be able to stop just that much better

Needs a little more go too though, going to get a tune for a 150 shot too, don't like the 125 too much. May as well max out my solenoid.
Sick of this quiet catted exhaust I have. The driveshaft problem last year crushed my old o/r x pipe.
So, think I'm going 3" this year too...
Sounds like a pretty badass running car.

I am looking to get my hood and bumper painted and installed. I also have some Spintech full length subframes that are designed to fit with the side exhaust better so I will let some of you know about that.The motor is slowly starting to go back togather allso The finally thing is that I have to figure out a couple of trouble codes that I have. I am looking at the MAF sensor as the possible problem. Will keep any one interested updated
