First test drive with the 400 Turbo is in the bag--just a quick jaunt around the neighborhood.

This dinky converter is definitely gonn'a take a little getting used to lol...but I can live with it.

Of course I had to give it a little whack...

<-----------this should give you a hint.

The car actually smoked the tires through 1st and 2nd from a roll this time lol. The throttle response is absolutely ridiculous now that it doesn't have that heavy-ass flywheel & clutch hanging off the back of the crank. Maybe I'll post a short video clip tomorrow.

Next on the "to do" list is get that 4.56 screw outt'a the back and get the 4.10's in, but that'll have to wait until spring.
