one time back when i owned a 84 v6 like yours with the dual speedo, i couldnt even keep up with a minivan on the highway going up hill, he wasnt even racing, just speeding lol it was sad

 

lol, i beat vans all the time :P this thing has no trouble getting over hills so far! and i found i get the most power when i go to the lowest gear possable then work my way up, helps with getting your speed up for the highway with these 2.8's

 

I would get it professionally done if i had teh cash to do it so im stuck doing it my self

 

Nice pics, glad to see you got them working. I also had to have my drivers side window motor replaced, not cheap, but I also was not going to hassle with it myself. Now my passenger side is broke too, damn thirdgens, lol.

 

I didn't either, AND I did mine myself.

Just trying to save you a headache, read some of the old posts on this topic. Lots of four-letter-words in there

Damn Thirdgens I love mine though

 

lol, I JUST got my car to idle smoothly and NOT die on me when it is cold, found some sort of vacume sorce comming off the Manifold, behind the Carb infrount of the dizzy, Pluged that sucker up and now im running as i should be, but what buggs me is what is it supposed to be hooked up to? (Ill post pics of it some time this week/weekend
