But this car will unfortunately be going on the back burner as my new 1988 Sport coupe 2.8L MPFI will be taking priority, and we are in the process of moving the cars around, very likely the 60,000km 2.8L block will be the doner eventually for a full rebuild into the 1988. As they always say, it takes 3 camaros to make a good one, cheers guys. I may start another thread for the 1988, but not quite yet.
