    Yeah... looking at the underneath it looks like a haunted house with all the spider webs everywhere. I knock 'em down as I go and most haven't been rebuilt. It's supposed to get down to 20* tonight, so hopefully that'll finish 'em off. They can't survive if their blood freezes, right?

    I'm seriously gonna pay a shop to do the fuel lines as long as they don't want more than $200 for the job. I hate dealing with stuff like that and would no doubt end up ruining something.

    I'm seriously getting anxious to drive this car again. It's nothing spectacular, but it has the potential to be a really reliable vehicle.

      Buy the nice flexible braided fuel line from Jegs and replace it all, along with the conversion fittings. That's what I intend to do. Easy to run, will look great. I'm thinking I might go with the lite stuff instead of the braided stainless...

          Not that I'm aware of. Usually the fix is 5/16" brake line sections bent to fit, double flare the original lines on the frame, and use unions to connect the brake line sections in place of the rotted out junk.

            See the thread where I talked about wasting money unnecessarily.

              Another dyno day on the 15th... I'm hoping to have it up and running by then.

              I'm also probably going to install actual tailpipes, as I don't want the fumes dumping that close to my doors if I'm not gonna have cats.
