BACK



970.56 cents later it is back. It still needs a new rear main seal a new IAC and new monza tips, but otherwise it is running like a beast. I am going to redo the wiring for hte remote battery in the trunk to wire the on/off switch so I can race brackets legal this winter. Other than that did anyone else get a double roller put in and the car feel slower, but drastically more responsive..

My car felt a bit peppier with the double roller chain in; I assumed my old chain was stretched out, and the power increase I felt was due to timing that was finally accurate.

I do not feel a "power" INCREASE. It feels like it responds the minute I touch the Throttle, but dosen't feel "faster." It could be a i really haven't drove it in a 2 years and I was able to drive it several miles.
