Not bad at all! Overall, the body seems straight - at least from the pics. Looks good!

You know I gotta ask though- how's the wiring?

No problems as of yet with wiring however I do have a nasty idle in gear that I need to work out I think it has somthing to do with my distributer because when I disconect the vaccume line going to the vaccume advance the idle does not change any ideas?

Sounds like it's not advancing. It's hooked up to a vacuum source at idle right? Try taking a timing light to it at idle and see what the timing is set at, then see if its actually changing when you disconnect the hose....it should retard by 10 degrees or so. If not, your advance is stuck or the vacuum can is shot.

Well its already got a ZZ4 crate motor in it so I was thinking about a cam and intake swap and maybe a different carb (not sure I really need a 750) and a 373 posi rear other than that just some cosmetic stuff like a black interior 91-92 Z28 spoiler cowl hood and a black paint job

You may have to fiddle with the timing a bit. I'm kinda suprised it ran as good as it did with plugs that had a reach - what...1/2" too short??

- Glad to hear it's running better now.

Yea the reach was about a half inch too short. It is a little faster now but now I have all new timing and carb setting issues to work out in a couple of weeks I should get them all worked out. Does anybody know how to adjust the secondaries on an edelbrock?
