So yesterday I started to fix the exhaust leak at the drivers manifold ripped the plug wires in process got all but 2 bolts loose borrowed dad blue tip wrench (torch) heated and turned bolts both broke got mad and installed new gasket with broken bolts and manifold started leaking after 5 minutes of idling at the same spot right next to a good bolt
The only good thing is engine runs better with new wires does good burn out

Broke my rear view mirror off with bass, wasted $20 of gas, and some how beat on it so badly it will no longer idle. Adjusted idle, idle air screws, accelerator pump, timing, and checked for vac leaks to no avail.

what system components are you running?

Ya know that commercial where a Reece's cup starts vibrating, then explodes into a bunch of Reece's minis?

That's more or less what my muffler did after I mashed it to pass somebody on the highway. The piece going from the muffler back to the back bumper fell off and started to drag on the road, and the body of the muffler is more or less hanging in there not connected to anything anymore.

I guess the old V6 muffler couldn't handle a 350 at maximum chooch.

Well since my AC don’t work eliminated the AC compressor, then I figured since I don’t have to smog I eliminated the smog pump along with attached brackets.

Only thing there is a line running from the AC condenser to an aluminum canister. Not sure if I should disconnect that too.

Drove it hard around a 1.1 Mile road course and surprised a lot of people that didn't think I, or the car, could hang :D

I had my old grant gt steering wheel kicking around, we been though a lot. So sanded her down to bare metal
and gave her couple coats of clear, and now she's got a new look. I have to say I'm not here all the time, but when I am here, I'm always learning something new or even if it's to refresh my brain and my hat's off to the work that you all
put into your cars.
