I just wish it was ready to fire up. I might have to move that up my list of priorities.... Chris I hope my exhaust helped you out on yours. It should sound great!

well i guess the old saying "two steps forward one giant leap back" has gone into effect, we couldn't get the carb to work... so we used a known good carb off of a buddys car and it busted right off... so i am now again in the market for a good carb unless someone can take a look at this one it is just dumping way to much fuel you couldnt even tell if the oil was oil when we dumped it... and the other bad thing is with my buddys good carb on it the motor seemed to have a slight knock... i would use that carb but of course he is driving his car this weekend, it is really up in the air whether or not we are going to make it... other than that the exhaust sounds great chris thanks again

It was fun! I've said it before that we should have get togethers more often too. I get a kick out of you younger gearheads! I guess it takes me back to when I was your age! Anyway I'm glad you guys got to cruise the car and hopefully we will get to racing together soon!

Here's a thought - let's have a get together when Chris get's his Nova running. We'll celebrate with him. I know a bunch of us are anxious to see it done!
