Adjusted front alignment to non suck spec, greased rear wheel bearings.

That said... I took it for a spin last night. Took it around the block, checked it for leaks, issues, etc and all was good.
...So I turned the EBC down to 0 and made a pull on the super old 93 octane in the tank. ~13 psi, 0 knock... Wow, heh, it's been a while. Changed the "set" from "0" to "20" and still hit 13 psi. I pulled into a parking lot to check the car for leaks and all was well, so I changed the set to "40", and hit 19.6 psi. Obviously it was very strong, I can only assume 480+ AWHP based on the car's past performance. Ha, man it pulls violently. I may be getting too old because it was a little scary. I think I saw a "2" pop up on the scanmaster (haven't set up my logger) and felt a little hesitation around 5500 rpm. I assumed it was light spark plug blow out. I gave it one more rip in 2nd gear before taking it easy the last couple miles before I got home.
Pulled it into the garage, turned the engine off, and hopped out to give it one final look for leaks. There was a small puddle of coolant and the overflow was full. Hmmm. If I did lift the heads, it's about time and it probably didn't happen on this drive. I didn't replace the coolant, so I'll do that today or tomorrow and toss on a new cap. If it is pushing, I'll just turn the timing down and give her one last hurrah on pump gas at the gathering. My 6G74 crank and future block are sitting in the corner of the garage waiting.
That's what I want to hear - how about some pics, slacker? :)Quote:

Maybe -2 degrees with a slight toe in.
