Drove it about 50 miles on the highway yesterday to get all the Winter fuel out of it.... filled up with a fresh tank and two 32ounce cans of Torco Accelerator :)

They say 2 cans will give us 102 octane... I'll dig out the laptop this week and do some runs to see how it looks.

drove it 350 miles this weekend, pretty happy about the gallons it took. tried to get some porches and vette's to race me. 1 porsche took the hint, but traffic wouldn't allow us to give a fair start.

and found out my ext wastegate got loose. every boost settings i see boost fluctuations WOT not goot for performance.

Tidied my garage so the Ty has a new home.
Painted the rear wiper.
Started installing the stock wing (if it's gay then I'll take it off.
Prepped for window motor replacement
Reconnected the ABS delete lines and prepped for the hydroboost install tomorrow.
Removed lower intake and all the valve train.
Found the distributor is getting chewed up.
Checked the oil filter - no bits in there so that's good at least. Must be in the pan...

2 more days of work to do then hitting the beach!

If you have a roof rack it might not be too bad.
I don't have a roof rack on mine and I hated that wing on the back. Especially since you can see the top part of it from in front of the truck.

I really like your painted mirrors. That's on my next round of projects. Trying to 86 as much black from the truck as possible.

Thanks - may not do it now!

The mirrors look pretty cool - truck is great, if only I could make it fast!

Re: What did you do to your SY/TY today?

put some nice 93 in it today and took it for a spin... ran like shit so I tossed new plugs and wires on from hood and yanked the cap to replace that and the rotor and think i found my source of a shitty idle.. looks like it'll stay parked for another six months lol because i won't have time to change out a dizzy anytime soon.

replaced the hydroboost unit and rerouted some hoses.
Began obsessively cleaning all the wires in the looms in the engine bay with white spirit. They're clean underneath!!!!
