Well, I took her around the block. I have three issues.

1.) Transmission has got to come back out. The input shaft must be hitting the crank, which makes it act like the clutch is not releasing all the way.

2.) Something is rubbing like a rotor against a caliper, or the like. I was so tired I did not lift it to inspect, but will get to it tomorrow.

3.) Running way rich. Now comes the tuning with the laptop.

No fluid leaks, no brake problems, no other issues at this time. Still got to get the alignment, cold air intake and A/C charge.

 

what part of texas would that be?

 

At the start of the hill country just north of San Antonio. What I consider the best part of Texas!

 

i bought my II in san antonio

once you have the proper bends and shape for the radiator hose go to your local autoparts store and hask them to let you in the back where all the hoses hang. in about 15 minutes you will most likely emerge with something that will work

 

use a feeler gauge on both front rotors see if the problem side has less room. the clutch problem sounds fun good luck

 

Hood still off till I get the EFI/Dyno guy over here. I Changed the plugs because they were fouled.

Not many new parts are left to put on.

I am thinking about making an upper shroud for the attachment to the upper grill. Since I moved the radiator forward 1 1/2" , the old hood latch bracket wont clear the condenser. I have to make something. Either something small 8-12" wide, all the way to the hood pin brackets, or something that goes fender to fender and under the top grill slat.

 

whats the deal with the supercharger to airbox hoses? they look like they just arent meant to fit together[&:]

 

Those are just temporary to get the car running. I will remove the hoses and have the tubes (2) welded together with just one rubber hose in between.

 

ah coolness. you must be like a kid waiting for christmas waiting to get thing thing finished LOL

 

covering that big hole with a sheet of metal would help keeping air at the radiator. plus you can paint it to match the car or make out of alum or stainless and polish it will shine like chrome.
