Default I finished my car, for real!

I finished it up, got almost all of the bugs worked out, etc. I'm driving it to Jacksonville tomorrow.

I tested the compression 300 psi and above all the way across.

Yay, and pics too.

I wouldn't leave you hangin.








While I was at the gas station, I saw a pristine 1970 dodge charger, the guy that owned it was super cool and went ape-**** about my car.

He started to try to talk to me about nawzzz but i just told him I was into using my brain to make my car fast, not a bottle.

He was impressed and so was I.

This is up there with the greatest days of my life.

man those pictures suck *** try resting the camera on your knee when you take pics if you dont have a tripod the pics will be about 70% better than what theyare now.

congrats on finishing the car

300 sounds right to me w/ 12.5:1 compression on a tight new motor.

Something is wrong with your camera...Either that or there was a very sharp earthquake for 30 minutes while you were taking these pictures...Either way your motor is very impressive looking...Nice and clean. As far as the car itself...What can I say? It looks bone stock with the exeption of the fog lights.
