He finally made it. This guy's been hanging out on Third Gen and getting all kinds of lowsy advice over there

I figured even though he doesn't drive a Vette he's bound to get better info here. I told him to introduce himself here since this is where most of the people I know hang out.

Todd, you also already know ToyC4.

What do you mean getting lousy advice? I GIVE advice! Honestly there is some good advice there but you have to weed through the first.

I know you said I know ToyC4 but I have no idea who that is.

Here is said IROC.
http://www.wku.edu/~nathan.plemons/htmls/iroc.html

The cosmetics need some work but there isn't much point in working on any of that until it runs right. With the new intake and carb though hopeuflly he's getting close. I can't wait to see what it'll do at the track and on the dyno.

Sorry Nate, I wasn't sure if ToyC4 was Joe or not.

I actually have IROC wheels now too. I need to send you new pics of the car, exhaust, engine.... I can't right now though, the carb is so rich at idle it BLOWS out black smoke and will barely run. Off idle and WOT is fun though.
