thanks guy's on all the compliments i really want to do alot more to the car but money is tight right now.i've got the hood almost done with the grump lump and when it's done i'll post pics.i might even be changing wheels again thinking of going with ET gasser style fronts with 15x10 torque thrust "D" wheels out back. the motor really sounds nice with the #140 cam and 3" exhaust it'll set off car alarms driving down the street with ease.i also would like to swap out the TH350 and put in it's place a M20 or M22 4spd that should really wake up the power then.
