Got The Car Fixed!!!!

Hey all

Got my car back today, heres the final results:

Fuel Pump was fine, injectors are fine, bla bla bla
The ignition module was messed up since the begining of this new engines life... So my friends dad replaced it all for me. My camaro is like a new car, I swear!

Apprenatly it wasent combusting all the fuel due to a weak spark, leading to a bad idle and a big loss of HP, it was also giving me that running rich smell all the time becuase it wasent combusting the left over fuel. I got the tranny mounts fixed, I got metal ones now and I have to say , DAMN they are awsome, my car feels AWSOME no cluncks no clinks no nothing no more just awsome gear shifting, Um. a spacer on the mainfolds was installed incorrectly (from the engine rebuild) that lead to the very bad smell coming into my car. Now its fine, smelling good!
Thats about it for now, im going to get things taken care of by my friends dad for now, a better garage than all that I know.

The price for all of this was only $200 dollars, thats for the labour the parts and everything else involved.

Heres a pic of my car when it was waiting for me..
Cya later

Thanks for everyones help!
IROCKER that includes u bro

I'm glad to here it's fixed Dave. I was almost 100% certain it wasn't the FP...I'm glad you didn't have to replace it, that saved you big time. Enjoy the ride.
