Default Hell yeah!!!!

well after a year of trying to get the damn thing to run right.......its running right!! took the carb off and siamesed the tpi with a 'mild' port job, reinstalled it and took it to the closest dealer. Well they replaced the fusible link to the pcm, set the timing, and voila! Then it was time to do donuts in the street baby!! I think i stretched the tv cable when i had the carb on, because it wont adjust. That, i can fix! Meanwhile i put some 'spacers' in to get it to shift. it runs out pretty good, now its time to get to work on all the rest.........to all that have helped me out along the way..... :cheers: I really appreciate it! Now I'll have to change my sig...........any suggestions?
