We do love our Texas cars. I think you started with a much better pony though.
Now about this Moderator thing..... is that different from the Restorerator???

Oh heck Yeah, Once I pulled the lowering blocks out, everything was back to normal.
Now I've gotta R&R head gasket, that is why the engine Hydrauliced last week. I must have had a slow leak from day one, & never realized the dropping Rad level wasnt just expansion loss. I'm gonna port match & relieve the EGR bumps while I'm at it.
While I'm at it LOL

Glad to here that you got the problem fixed. Did removing the blocks adversely affect the stance of the car? Now you need to upgrade to IRS

"While I'm at it" I have more than one project take 10 times as long with those words.

Hey Day, I still haven't gotten around to mailing that slave cylinder. Sorry man.... I came back from vacation last week and it's been a zoo. Gotta take a trip tomorrow also.

I'll try Fri or Saturday.

Actually...(does actually have the same conotation here??)... Taking the 1in lower blocks out, seemed to raise the car 2in. It may have been the springs re-arching them selves, with no load on. And now they'll flatten out again.
No IRS at this point, I still want to use the Flex-a-form Fiberglass springs, but next year. After SWMBO gets her A/C.


Ya know, BILLY really has to come visit here.
