Adam, also I never recieved the mini DV back. Did you send it? Let me know
Larry

 

Sorry I still have it Larry. I had some problems encoding it into a usable file. Itll be on the way to you asap. Things have gotten a little hectic with school and I havent had much time to spend on the video.

I also need a new version of adobe premiere because mine is buggy and crashes a lot. Hopefully things will calm down and I can put some more time into it soon.

define new my friend, I have 6 if you need it. just shoot me a PM

 

Thats cool, I dont really need it, just wondering. The first video was quite good, expect this one will be too. I have done a little video editing and I know it is very time consuming, so whenever you can get to it. By the way Im installing an Accel intake base on my car now, got a 52mm TB on and planning on headers soon. Ran a 8.68 in the 1/8 mile out at Lonestar in Sealy recently. They tell me that equates to mid 13s in the quarter. Hopefully I will have the Superram Plenum and runners on, LPE 219 cam, and AFR 190 Head by summer. :rockon: :rockon: That should be some fun. Hopefully the next gathering we can go to a race track somewhere and let it all hang out.

 

Larry that is bad-***. I wish I could get all that stuff. I am aiming to retain the stock intake except for a bigmouth manifold, then diving into the motor for some forged pistons. Maybe a set of ported out aluminum vette heads (L98) and then comes a supercharger. Probably wont happen for a long time, but thats my goal.

My best 1/8 was a 8.9 something. That run was a 14.03 run, my personal best. So yeah, youre defenitely into the thirteens. Kick ***

My motor is getting too tired to run like that anymore. 160,000 miles and climbing fast. So I wont be hitting those numbers until the motor is rebuilt. Once again, congrats on your car. Its cool to see it "evolve"

And I'll keep working on the video. By the way, if you ever maybe film some of those runs out at sealy, lemme know

**Anyone else, if youve got video and want your car in the vid, PM me or send me a AIM message (I am Ktulu14)

By the way, what are you doing with your old plenum and runners?

If you hold on to them, maybe someday when im back in Houston I could show you how to polish it all out, and youll get a better reward for it when you sell it.

 

So far I am just holding on to all the stuff I have pulled off. I was thinking of just keeping it in case I ever wanted or needed to put it back on. I don't really anticipate ever selling the car, but things could possibly change. I was thinking of a supercharger and maybe still will someday, Im going to try this plan first and see how I like it. Eventually Id like to do some appearance mods like some wheels like yours and a new paint job, but the paint is ok for now, and as for the wheels, Id rather put the money now into speed mods. I saw a 71 Dodge Challenger a few times at that car show in Deerpark that has about 7000 original miles, and a bueatiful purple paint job that was stock. I think it was called Dodge plum purple or something. I would love to get a paint job like that some day.
anyway, let me know when the vid is ready.
