it should be out again for thirdgenfest assuming i'm still living in illinois and not leaving for a new lab job since graduating college.
I have a pile of parts still to toss at this car, and I'm debating a BB swap right now since it's sitting in the garage right next to the car and the tubular crossmember has the space available to do it cleanly. If not it's getting a 355 on the bottle with a .550ish solid cam and a 9 inch swapped in either way.

I have pics of a vert blown that was up on ebay years ago.
I'll have to dig through my achives.
My dream is to drive a car with a blower.
Anyone know if this can be done in Cali and pass smog?
I'd love to do this with my 91 vert.
