Pretty discouraged, Bob.
If it were just 3 or 4 inexplainable defective parts, or minor errors on my part...
no problem
But DAMN....
it's EVERYTHING !

Danny, that event sounds like more fun than I could be permitted !
However, again, the whole idea of this project, was to try and regain some respect from today's racers/enthusiasts, towards the 409 engine and/cars. I've had them for the past 22+ years, and the WHOLE TIME, I've had to listen to the "other" Chevy guys politely make fun of them ! You know what THAT caused ?!!.... gotta prove them wrong... at any / all costs.
well
I got the "all costs" part down pretty good now.

Now that the traction problem seems to be getting rectified, a supposed fuel delivery problem had to be addressed.
Did it. Lovely parts, properly installed.
Fixed NOTHING !
The GLORIOUS MSD distributor has the rotor out of phase with the cap. Yeah, one QUALITY $400 part there.... !
Anyhow, I devised a way to remedy THAT.
Today, I'm going to see if the "miss" is gone.
I'm not optimistic.

Anyhow guys... thank YOU for the encouragement... I think... it's BECAUSE of the encouragement, that I keep spending money and time on this thing !
HEEE HEEEE !!!

Yes, still two piece driveshaft... but I made it up out of more "substantial" components,
