I was so tempted to go around the block but I don't think it would be well received.
I've got some cut outs that are going to be plumbed into the system coming out under the rear of the front fender.

Sounding good............looks good!!! Always nice to know it's in and everything is alright. No matter if you've never had a problem......there is always that little worry in the back of your mind. Great job on everything.
Well just short of 1 year it rolls again. Got it off the stands and on the ground. I had run it a few times in the garage and driveway to check the power steering and brakes
and my daughter said her bedroom was shaking. Good sign!
still don,'t have any mufflers but could not stand it any more and took a short drive down our subdivision and Wow:eek !! I had it into 2nd abit but in first got on it a bit and all I can say is it's going to be fun!

How's your "rocket" now!!!!??????????
Ask my wife!
Well got a front end alignment done and some mufflers put on. Had them do the exit in front of the rear wheels. Was a little concerned how it would sound with a set of used cherry bomb mufflers but it is great! Took a drive and two words pretty well describe it ... O WOW!!!!!! big grin now.
Congratulations!!! I am really hoping to finish mine by the end of the year.
:eekMan if I had this when I was 16 I'd have been in trouble!!
Congrats....its gotta feel friggin awesome!!!!!!!
i'm going to get a camera and try to take you for a ride!
Ali and I went to Barrie earlier in the week and stopped by the engine builders as well as Jim and Jim's. Dexter checked out the tires and said it's ok to go. No sign of the aluminum block though....

listened to your video about 4 times sounds great...........great
Yep, Dexter gave it two thumbs up!
The engine sounds really good!
I took pictures of the rest of the car but they came out blurry. The engine picture came out good though...
Looks good!! Are those the aluminum filler panels I see for sale on Ebay that are by the core support / hood latch area?
