Thanks for the positive reinforcement! Yeah I keep looking at the guide online when I think of something, but that's usually after I make a mistake and have to redo stuff, lol!
I'm going to d/l it now and do some reading. (hopefully won't see a glaring oversite on my part) Thinking it would of been simpler to get a street car and just pull out what is legal rather than trying to change a bracket car into a street car so I can convert it to a stocker! First time to the track will give me a lot of answers (guess I should of rebuilt the transmission or rear end, lol) don't even know what it weighs. Ok...time to download the rule book! |

D/L the rule book and found 6 things I need to check/change. Nothing crazy but more work, like;
-Need to find a heater control panel. -Need to install a radio (actually I like this as I listen to the announcer as I'm staging). But this means moving the fuel pump and fan switches that are mounted to the block off plate that I just finished rewiring a few months ago. -Headlights and taillights...damn it, cut the harness off at the firewall in '93 or so because you just know it made it that much faster with no headlight harness...lol.... Couple more things to add to the list. (I guess that's why the list never gets shorter, I keep adding to it!) (keep rereading the line "mired in repairs, rather than improves", boy that has an ominous tone to it..lol) Last edited by goinbroke2; 04-02-2024 at 12:13 AM. |

You do not need a radio, factory, or otherwise. Heater controls, yes.

Life always throws you curve balls doesn't it??
Thursday night coming home from bible study in the snow storm, this happened. Nobody hurt but it went down over a 30' bank and was over 100' off the road when it finally fetched up on more trees and a huge rock. Waiting until Monday to see what the adjuster says. |

In other news....I ordered the adjustable upper rear control arms and the grill that goes in the hood scoop from LMR. I checked the pinion angle and it's around 3-4* down, but this will let me adjust for what works best.
I think I'll have to get a decal made that says "I've never spent so much to go so slow" !! LOL!!! |
