Finally got around to rebuilding my spare ebay find 17058241 (800cm '78 350 Buick) qjet. Couldn't find my damn dremel bits so the throttle shaft bushings will have to wait. Carb is tight enough, no noticeable slop in the primary shaft, but I'll have to see how it runs. Insides all done, did the APT accesability mod with a kit from JET Performance (bought from summit) and took another look at my exhaust. As much as I don't want it to be so, the m80 cherries gotta go. I have a pair of Thrush Welded center in offset out mufflers to spread the tailpipes out to where they need to be. I mean, I can always add more cherries in front of them, I have 8 feet of bare pipe to work with...
I also gotta install some power steering lines this weekend. I have a half day off work this Friday to get my car cleaned up for GoodGuys on Saturday. First year they're letting in 73-87, and I want to be there. Was gonna go on Friday, but couldn't get the whole day off. Oh well. As said it will give me time to prepare.
