    Well the coupe made it arround the block....sorta...It died a few times leaving the driveway. The fuel mixture is way off and the clutch need to be reworked and the brakes need to be adj, but other than that! I went all the way up the block and down and back in my driveway...I think the timing is off cuase is got up to 200. But heres some pics to show ya:

    Yes... if you haven't done so, check out the link to the build but make sure you have some time to devote to the post. This is a cl***y build by someone who obviously has serious talent.

    Been driving it around the block each weekend...Even did a few burnouts today!!!...Decided to finally check out the huge oil leak and found a oil plug not in!!!! So got alot of the motor in the floor trying to get it in!!! maybe that might give me more than 25 pounds of oil pressure
