71 Demon back together and kicking butt on the street
So, after having my Demon down and out for the last 9 months, I finally got the motor back in today and got to log some miles on it this afternoon. I had to have cylinder #4 sleeved and replace a piston and rod, as well as 1 Exhaust valve, 4 exhaust guides, a valve seat, and valve job. While on my test drive to break everything in, I get provoked by a Neon Srt4. I'll be darned if I am gonna let some punk fool with me. At the next available light he does the old rev it up and let the blow off valve blow. Light turns green and I let my car go at like 1800 RPM and start hazing the tires(Been a while since I've worked the clutch in this car), I back pedal and stay out in front of him as his car has not built any boost yet. Since I was breaking in the motor I short shifted and ran through 3 gears.....up to about 85-90 MPH and pulled away from him the whole way till I let off. Just funny that I could not go more than 10 miles in the car b4 I was being provoked for a race LOL
