It is nice when you can handel you car parts and not have to wash your hands afterwards.
I have a thing about covering parts of my body with flamable liquid, just don't feel good knowing I could light on fire at any time.\'85 Z28, T-tops new LG4 and TH700<br />\'85 3.4L 5-speed<br />mods: <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/oil_pan_4\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/id/oil_pan_4</a> the nitrous exhaust O2 safety, pg 3. <br />Areo space materal engineer wantabeComment

[img]graemlins/banana.gif[/img] Tomorrow's the day! It's been almost 2 weeks since I started but I've actually only worked on it for 6 days, and on those days I could only work for 4 hours after school. Been a pain in the ***, but tomorrow is the day that I finally get to fire it up. Just gotta tighten down the headers and fill up the fluids and she'll be ready.

Your tips were all very helpful, even though I already knew most of them. Although I could use some Neosporin now like you suggested ;)Originally posted by RallyRed 98:

[img]graemlins/banana.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/banana.gif[/img] Just started the car up. Man that idle is sweeeeet. Started up right away, no problems. Have run it about 20 minutes so far. The only thing that has me worried is some white smoke out the exhaust. It's not as bad now as it was at first, but it's still there. I'm hoping it's just some water burning off, but I don't know yet. :(Matt

I've been freaking out thinking the head gasket wasn't on right or something. I took it for a quick drive around the block and the smoke is rapidly going away. Only a little after a drive now...and none at idle. Will get some video clips up tonight. [img]smile.gif[/img]Originally posted by viper04af:

Glad to say that the smoke is all gone. Had me worried for a while, but everything looks good now.
Here's a quick video I took while idling just after the first start. Got Lope? [img]graemlins/bowdown.gif[/img]Matt
