Trying to find some pics of Heathers, I found this pic hiding on my PC. We pushed it out of the garage since it just had the block in it, then after it was washed, we towed it with our lawnmower to the front garage. My heads came in so we installed those, duals, different set of headers that day... Man that car could fly, anyone that ever saw Daron's old TA, we had the exact same setup but his with a moser rear.

Those were the days!

Hopefully you guys don't remember what I got AFTER I got rid of it... :doh:

 

I should have posted the pic of it just right after we pushed it out of the barn, it had been sitting in there for about 8 months.

haha... I remember working on that thing with a foot of snow on the ground.... and locking the keys in the car while working on it... oh ya, and blowing up your laptop trying to tune it...

 

That first startup with no x-pipe was awesome... damn that thing was loud!

Daron's old TA > Your TA.

 

Daron ran 11.20's all motor, with a stock short block before he sold it...

[Nitrousbird]

And ya gave up on it.

Hey, I raced Daron! He got the jump and I was gaining. But that was when we both had cam only cars.

 

Ya, had to get rid of it.. For 1, I was sick of taking the tranny out every weekend and 2, had had it for 3 years, that's about my limit before I get bored with cars.

Post the vid!!

I'll look for it when I get home....

LSx cars run good, that's a sharp TA there - why did you sell?

 

Regret it now huh? Got times with it?

give me a few minutes and I'll post a vid of mine on start-up. I'll warn you, it's a shitty quality vid since the camera man accidentally saved it to the memory card instead of the mini DV tape.

First vid: It was the first day out of the garage after the cam install. This is the first time I got her to idle on her own. This is with open stock manifolds and stock tuning.

vid #1

 

Second vid: This is right after the long tube header install (about a week after the first vid). Open Pacesetter headers, still on stock tune. Ignore me talking in the vid as I generally sound like an idiot on camera.

 

vid #2

I wish I had taken video of mine on first start up after the cam. Your videos brought back some cool memories. Ryan and I installed my cam and headers on a Sunday - fired it up in my neighborhood for the first time at 3:30 am Monday.
