hahaha. just found my camera charger last night while iwas moving so i will take some exhaust vids tonight. Drove it to work today.

issues thus far... temp gauge doesn't work so i drive with the heater on constantly full blast just to be safe, driveshaft is obviously not balanced and i am pretty sure i have to play with the mounts to make sure the tranny is lined up right in the tunnel as it may be causing excess vibrations. This problem is keeping me from turning it loose as it shakes hella on acceleration. lettin the clutch out in first though this car tries to spin the tires and gets up and goes really quick!!! can't wait to get the driveshaft stuff figured out!

the 2.93 diff is perfect as i'm in 4th at 2500-3000 rpms at 60 and in 3rd i'm at 3500! right in the power range for 60- whatever runs!! (i haven't even used 5th yet) haha
