Default It's Alive!!!!

All done!! :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:
timing is set at 8 degrees, no trouble codes, all is well.
The only issue is with the smog pump; the tube that connects to the two headers rotted out, so I have to ditch the pump for one of those eliminator setups from Mid America. All I can hear is that thing pumping air!!
There's also a slight skip; cap, rotor, and wires (etc.) hopefully will cure that!!
Went for a nice cruise around Lake Winnepesaukee...what a beautiful day.
Oh, I almost forgot.....a car pulled up next to me at a red light with two girls in it; they told me that I had a nice car :cool: :cool: :)

One was a redhead; they looked about 20 or so. It was nice to get a compliment from anyone on Maiden Voyage 2002!! :) :)
