To be fair I bet the speedometer was disconnected a big chunk of this cars life.

The actual mileage is most likely way more.

Any updates mark? Are you putting miles on it yet? Thoughts on the exhaust sound and drone?

A new car usually has some issue. Hobbs suffered from a soft brake pedal. So we swapped the master cylinder. Nope. I call my ex-Dephi buddy and he said the ABS module is not the issue. So we tried a bunch of bleeding a rotating the calipers and still a soft brake pedal. We did an ABS stop and the LH side tires would lock. I have an extra ABS module so we put that in. All good now.

If you are going to drive them you have to have a cup holder and a phone holder

I did my first Cars and Coffee deal this past weekend in Birmingham, MI. It was great to get the car out and see old friends.

The car drives great! The Holley engine cal is very good. The trans is great as well as the clutch. The Holley power steering pump is horrible. I have a new one coming from Turn One. The Dakota Digital dash turned out very nice. Great functionality.

We might have over achieved on making it quite. I did not think it was possible. But my wife did not hear me start the car and leave the neighborhood.

Some other small tunings items to work on also.
