Well I'm anxious to drive it again. Yesterday I made a comment that it didn't feel as strong as it should since we are running 4:10 gears now (replacing 3:08s). Dad mashed the pedal & I checked the carb out & it wasn't opening but at the most 3/4 of what it should. So it should run pretty good since it has a fairly stout 355 in it & a 700R tranny.

As for the suspension, it is very tight but didn't change the ride quality that much even with the low profile tires. I think it needs a quicker ratio steering box but I wouldn't know where to even start to find one of those. I guess that will be a project for later on down the road. Dad is wanting me to figure out a way to put a sway bar out back so I may look into that after we get he wiring done.

Thanks again guys for the compliments!
