Title: free ride
Post by: rocket on January 02, 2008, 11:57:09 PM

I was busy in the garage today.  I got my e-locker installed on bambi (looks sweet) and the exhaust installed in the Beast!  I can acutally run it w/o hearing protection!  Now i'm lookig for someone to help put the hood on (old steel weighs like 50# and is too big for one person to handle).  Any takers?  who ever helps gets the first ride!

I just woke up (my lazy ass is on vacation) but it would only take me about 20min to get ready and get over there.  Just let me know when.

just need to tune it or that much ballz?

hows the rear end?

you need to take a video of it doing a burnout or a donut running in the garage and cruseing down the road.

a little of both, but it runs way too rich.  Got the video (no burnouts), just have to format/post it.  I have to wait till i've broken her in to do the wild stuff (500 miles), so it will be a while (no heat in the beast, unless you count the fire it breaths)
