86GT Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 My bad luck started saturday when i noticed i had pushed out the driver side head gasket on my 86. Replaced sat night and went to the track to make a couple passes. Well the car ran decent but was down like 4mph so i knew something was up. On the 3rd pass my problem showed its ugly face again. I think the pass. side gasket may have been bad also and i didn't catch it sat when i replaced the other on. Anyway, I just want to give a BIG THANKS to Jeff at IPS for letting us use his truck to get my car back home. I also want to thank Mark (Atomicfusion) for letting us use his trailer and Tom from IPS for hauling it. Thanks again for all of your help it made my shitty day a little easier to deal with. -Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem at all. Tommy sent me a picture of it loaded up out at Trails that didn't hit my phone until around 2am lol. Just good to hear it was a small problem and that even with it the car ran well. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
