Well I had been lookin for a SS since my H/S years, never really finding anything I wanted that was in good shape for a descent price. So Dubster98 had to sell his 87 SS because of him moving. So in July I bought it from him. If anyone remembers, he was having a hard time getting it to run right.
The SS is in good shape, but ran like crap. So after doing normal maint stuff on it(new tires, brakes all around,hoses,belts) because it sat for a couple years, it was time for the motor. After rerouting the plug wires so they were in the right order, and getting the old gas out and new in, it was better but still no good. Actually hooking the choke linkage and replaceing missing or bad vacuum hoses, adujusting timing and replaceing bad egr helped a little more. Now just waiting to replace the o2 sensor and the bad cat with a magnaflow. With some other adjustments and use hopefully the SS will be ready for emission/safety inspection.
