Vids of teh '82 and '87

[Tiggie]

I finally uploaded some videos. More to come that are more interesting, specifically an devoted Exhaust one on the '82 that includes something other than idle. If you'd rather not stream them on streetfire.net, here is a LINKY to my Supermotors site from which you can download them.

Starting the '82, exhaust note too:

what you have for exaust?

I have stock iron manifolds, gutted cats, glasspacks, and stock 2in replacement pipes with custom tips.

Your '82 sounds really nice. Sounds like it runs really well.

Also, what type of camera were you using for those vids? The audio quality is excellent.

[Tiggie]

Thanks for the compliment. The camera is a Polaroid 630i Digital Camera, it was $99 at Sears the day after Thanksgiving. The sound gets kinda sratchy when riding down the road, it picks on the the wind and road noise and stuff.

[Nathan in MI]

Yeah, but on the exhaust vid of the '82, it picked up the low end really nicely.

When I get the Vic back to reliable, we gotta have a meet man. Maybe get some of the CVN guys to show up as well.

Awsome. I just love your 82.

DAYUMM that thing sounds nice. If I pick up that '82 the 1st thing I'm doing is duals with glasspacks. After the tranny of course.

That does sound awesome. Ever thought about going with Mustang shorties and a 2.25" system?

Yup. I actually already have the stock shortys and a BBK off-road H-Pipe I picked up cheap. I'm just waiting until spring to install them when I put the new engine in hopefully. I guess I'll probably get some Impy tails too, it depends on the money situation.

Thanks guys for all the compliments.

Oooo I'm in dire need of that. I swear there are 14 miles of vacuum hoses on this thing.

Welcome to the state of the art of 1980s automotive technology.

She sounds good... sounds smooth.

I've got the link for my burnout vid., you can hear the difference it makes with the shorties on. They make A LOT of difference, lol. I also removed my cats, and put 3.5" echo chambers on mine though.
