I have pictures, but they are very large and as yet I haven't figured out how to add them. Any help would be great.

Congrats! It feels great doesn't it! Oh, and if it's pulling hard right through fifth gear, go get an allignment and it should help you out there.

Pulling hard

When I said it was pulling hard onthru 5th gear I actually meant it still has a lot of acceleeration (tarction) at that point. Mechnaically the car is perfect, no pulling or any thing misaligned. The guy that I got from said he had too many toys and had to decide which ones to keep, he chose his Harley instead. His loss my gain I guess.
