Navin...you still interested in OneLap? Jess is not sure of the budget (we started adding it up and it is PRICEY)
Car is running pretty good. Around town it is perfect and actually easier to drive than a lot of cars because of the immense torque. It still breaks up pretty bad at random points when full throttle till I beat up on her really really hard. I am changing out the fuel pump since the original one has 164,000 miles and is made for 1/2 the horsepower. Plus heck, I have a spare one downstairs so its free.99.
When it runs well...it runs WELL. I really think it is mostly an issue with the tune. The guy tuned it, and didn't even get RPMs right so I am not 100% sold on that. During this winter, I will be pulling the motor back out to take care of a small oil leak that leaves a couple drops a week, and throwing ported heads and the FAST Intake Manifold and TB on. Ill get it tuned locally and in person, and hopefully be somewhere around 450-480 to the wheels.
Took it over to Cars and Coffee and someone grabbed a picture of the engine that still isn't cleaned up :/ Then he also got a picture of the car before I used Sonax on the wheels. So I have a real "before/after" of Sonax on the wheels...
