Well, I love the car. No doubt about it. It's just really tought to do what I want to do with this I guess. I wanted a 'every day' driver car. I would take it out and to work maybe a couple times out of the week. Be able to go out on the weekends and race it. This car I have no is a nice fast car. The guy I bought it off of, that did all the work, took out everything! I have no heat, nothing under the hood (pollution pumps?). I don't even know if they came with pollution pumps.

Is it possible to pass emissions with that car as is? I mean, with some tweaking of the carb? I would have to put cats on it, but thats no problem.

My main goal was to get the newer one with FI already, heat, passed emissions, etc, and take my 351 in the garage and send it in to get all cleaned up. I wanted to get a 408 stroker in it, and a holley systemax EFI Kit. Which should include the uppper and lower intake, cam, and heads. I was told by a guy, thats some major power right there. I have roughly $5,000 to spend on a nice quick setup. I'm taking $200 from every pay check too.

But I just thought it would be easier to go with a newer one that everything worked, it passed emissions, and I could just build up on that. This one I have now, doesn't pass emissions, no cats, no heat, nothing inside of the car that was there before.

I guess I rather just sell it and get a new one to start with. Ack! I did price shrouds and got one that would fit. I could try buying it and see how the cooling goes. But the emissions would be the next problem. Why worrie? why not start with a new one? Well see how it goes.
