My 383 is back on the road!

After a month of trials and tribulations my car is back up and running. I took her for a spin just now and she feels strong. I can't wait to throw a more aggresive tune in and see how fast she can go N/A.

Thank you so much to all who have helped me since Day 1 of the Motor Swap. Now that my troubles are over, I am ready to start helping others and passing on what I have learned. I made some terrible mistakes and I will do my best to make sure no one else repeats them and suffers the pain I felt .

Can't wait for the next cruise and the next street legal event .

Craig, easy said than done isn't it ? You still make mistakes & if you were to do it over again, you'd do it again. This I can tell from the intake.

Congrats Draco!

Draco and SBainsTA... no hard fellings? I hope not, just got a little pumped up that day with all the country bashing going on.
Sometimes better to NOT let my opinions out!
