Wins with new engine...

Well I was taking my new engine on its maiden run. Wasn't really looking to race since I can't really go too far over 1/2 throttle due to the small injectors that are on the car until the right ones come in. Came to a light with a early 90s Accord filled with people and a 3000 GT was behind me. Light turned green and the Accord just floors it so I think what the heck. Ease onto the gas and fly by him with ease. Next I see the 3000 GT come flying up behind my car and tailgates me. Drop it to third and ease into the gas again and pull away. Soon as I see that I am pulling away I go back to the speed limit and let them do their little fly-bys Took both of those cars with hardly any throttle, small injectors, and the smog chip in Man I love this car.

3000GT's can be fast as **** in a straight line, but they're a bitch to work on and plow through corners like a frickin school bus.

On your web site you list a set of 24lb lt1 injectors. Are those the injectors that you are running right now, or are you still using your 305 injectors?

Well the injectors were supposed to be LT1 24 lbs. Put them on and found them to be 18# Talked to the guy I bought them from and he is sending me the right injectors. So on the car are 18# injectors.
