OLDIES STROKER

Post by OLD FART »

just had a road tune with Lee Thomas and he has the motor running sweetly with the NEW (no more 2nd hand for me after all the hassles ) Siemans 780's.As the car starts to come on boost at app 3k it breaks traction in 2nd
Now I am all :D :D :D again
I've had mine since 03 07 92
85 JB 2323cc DOHC 4G63
THE OLDER I GET THE FASTER I WAS
GROWING OLD IS MANDATORY GROWING UP IS OPTIONAL

Congrats Rad,

Glad to hear its all settled down now and pumping along as it should. Its an ordeal isnt it!

Great effortless power, should be a sweet drive now. :beer

This boys and girls is what makes the twin cam conversion so worth it in the end. You really do have to experience how the power is delivered and the smoothness to appreciate it.
Never argue with an idiot, it brings you down to their level and they beat you with experience.

Thanks Greg & yes it has been a trying time but hopefully I can enjoy driving it and feeling the torque shoving me in the back :)
