Default 86 Monte worklog

Might as well start a work log, so here goes This is all of the progress till now.

Night I Brought her home





First mod, change the steering one, I didnt like the wood one even though it felt less truck like.


Header time.






Had to buy a new jack for it. Terrible feeling when you can hear the old one slowly creaking down.



Dynoed it, 209 hp 264 lbs of torque, running 55* of timing. The last owner didn't tighten anything down, so it spun.

PARTS ACQUIRING!
Weiand Team G intake and Holley 750 carb



And now putting them on.
