busy with exams, one week left then i need to:

-replace my spedo gear to match my 3.55s
-drop the gas tank and replace the filler seal because it leaks
-pull off the crappy stock diff cover because it leaks and bolt on the mac one
-drop my bbk o/r h pipe and put in the stocker so i can pass etest.

all this needs to be done in a few days so it can be back on the road. haha.

-then when thats all done i can have some fun and toss my 1.7 rrs on with the new push rods
-my new mac long tubes and dr gas x pipe

its going to be a fun spring!

been busy at school since sept so i havent done anything to the car over the winter. Been checking kijiji and the corral buying all sorts of parts though.

So excited to install them!

Also me and my dad are putting our new 383 in the 1976 nova were building. Post soon to come in the off topic section on that build.
