Today I replaced my spark plugs with ngk's, the old Delco's were shot and Summit doesn't carry Delco.The wires were also shot, found one was sitting on the old exhaust manifold and burned, I am now using Taylor wires.I also replaced the cap and rotor with an msd set, I have no idea what brand the old ones were, they didn't have copper/brass terminals and was worn pretty badly.The car used to die once on first startup each day but today it fired without any hesitation, it idles smoother, and has much better response!I may replace the stock coil with an msd one too.I want this thing running sweet for the cruise around the lake.I don't know if I'll be driving down and meeting up for the drive back Travis, we'll see.

Sorry but I won't be able to make it either.Too many bills to pay.
Just kidding, I'll be there.I'm just trying to figure out this intermitent stumble at light throttle cruising, doesn't do it when I'm on the gas or off, just light throttle.

Sending my headers to Jet-hot tommoro. It wont effect my going or not though. They should be back in time, but if not, oh well. I won't see a big difference in performance anyways with stock heads and intake. Should be nice for underhood temps. I have a nasty exhaust leak where I'm sure the exhaust manifold is cracked. Bummed out that so many people or droppin off the list. What's the new count? I'm looking forward to a get away with the wifeee anyways, the rest of the cars is just a topper.

That's how I'm lookin' at it, it's Tahoe! I love it up there, air is clean, water is beautiful and the gambling is plentiful.
Oh and Jet-Hot is good stuff.
When I bought my Hookers I had the store send them straight there and then to me.
They still look great 2.5 years later.
