Progress is being made on this! Plugs, plug wires, fuel filter are all installed, as well as wheels and tires for winter (Discount Tire steelies on Michelin X Ice 2 185/55R15). Hasport shift linkage and the Golden Eagle exhaust cam seal are ordered. I picked up a spark plug cover, as well as a timing belt cover from a friend. Distributor stuff is next, as well as the valve cover gasket for when the cam seal is installed. Then maybe some motor mounts for Christmas for myself

What kind of fuel economy do you get at the moment?

What kind of fuel economy do you get at the moment?

I drive mostly city, and it averages out to around 32-35 MPG. With the few highway trips I've done, I net around 42 MPG. Who needs a hybrid?!


In other news with this car, new axles will be going in this week. Also going in are Skunk 2 Front Control Arms, Skunk 2 Rear Camber Kit, as well as new ball joints.
