Steve, two big claps and a Rick Flair for the ink![img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img][img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] All you cars are works of art, because your passion for detail is incredible. I get jealous of your skills at putting things back together, since my skillset ends after taking things apart. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]
We've been fortunate enough to watch your kids grow up working in your garage, thanks so much for sharing. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img]

Thank you! I sent out a PDF of the article to all my relatives today: Mom and Dad, brothers, sister, cousins, in-laws, etc. They got quite a vicarious thrill out it.

Thay all want to send me their daily drivers to fix now. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Just read it last night - great article, congratulations.

Re: Gramma's Car: the new project!
 

Took Gramma's car out yesterday to fill it with gas. Since my daughter needed gas in her car too, I filled both tanks up with the regular, lowest 87 octane stuff. The car did not complain one bit. Not a ping to be heard with the 9-1/2 to 1 compression! Hurray for cheap gas! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

I just noticed that Pypes posted the step by step installation video for the exhaust system they installed on Gramma's car.

Nice! I wish the voice over guy was more excited about it [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Gramma's Car: the new project!
 

Yeah, it kinda reminded me of the voice over on the original &quot;health education&quot; movies we were forced to watch in elementary school. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

I need to update the system on my 74 z. I bought a stainless system with transverse muffler and I hate to say it, but its too quiet.
I cant remember the vendor, but I took the car out this weekend and was not impressed with the sound. Almost as drab as the voice over guy. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: Gramma's Car: the new project!
 

I really like this system. It sounds downright evil at full throttle.

BTW, I just noticed that they also posted the installation video for the ram air manifolds:
