I always had a running car Mike, it was mostly under construction R&Ding different set ups. The turbo is a T3 out of a old Dodge charger. If I ever get it dialed in I may also upgrade to the T3/T4 combo.

Pulled Simon out of the garage then turned him around and pulled him back in so that he is facing the other direction. All under his own power. Now to save up some coin so I can replace the O2 controller that failed.

Not much difference, ya just have to change numbers instead of turning screws.

I've needed to replace the clutch on my '73 Super since I bought it two years ago. Well tonight John Hanson and I pulled the motor to force me to finally change it. Isn't the disk supposed to have some grooves? I think mine is shot.
Now need to get some parts...
