Thanks, but I meant the sheets with all the numbers/data on them.

When ever you get a chance…… no rush.
 
Hate to disappoint but it won't be tommorow, Tim's gotta go over to the left side of state.
 
I've decided that doing the entire car all at once isn't the same thing as doing 1 thing at a time lol.
I'm starting now in the front, doing all my metal work in the engine compartment.
Also this week I need to put up more lights in the garage and install my wood stove and chimney in the garage too.
So it starts with filling holes on the firewall.
I used the metal from the front inner fender wells.

There’s something weird going on above 5900. The curve dips and comes back up, then dips again. Any chance you’re loosing control of the valve up there?

I guess it's possible, it does seem like it tries hard to get past the 6000 rpm mark.

Also, thanks for pointing that out. I honestly didn't even notice it. The other sheet doesn't do that

I have not put the engine yet, it might go in for a weekend to make sure everything fits i have to prep the engine compartment. I want to sand blast it and get it into sealer asap. But lots of sheet metal work 1st.
Also need to save up a few months for a nice converter
 
Just messing with you. lol

I’m going to bleed the brakes in the morning and take the duster out for its maiden Voyage tomorrow.

Have you weighed your car?
 
My vote is a chrome helmet with a spike on top and smoked blue or mirror goggles.
