Glad you had a good time Al!  It sounds like it was a win win for everyone there!  Now, my car is ready for your services :working:

Nice car, nice people and nice work! I was impressed with the way the engine started, ran and stopped. Lots to be happy about!  :thumbsup:

sounds great...and you can almost smell the exhaust!  What kind of mufflers are on it...I'm guessing maybe none?

Larry,  It has hooker mufflers on it from when Don had his 318 in place. He had 1 3/4  exhaust with very small headers. He now has Hooker super comps 2 x 3.5 inch.  The exhaust isn't sealed all the way yet. I cut off his exhaust header flanges and stuck his pipe up inside the 3.5 collectors.  It will eventually have 3 inch to the mufflers.  Don will take his car home and do little projects to his car when he is done with his term in Hi.  He will also be doing his tire and rim choices, little things like that.

That was my question too.  :grinyes:  Engine sounds great!  Nice video Wade, just seeing pics doesn't do the engine justice.  Nice job on the engine Alan.  :thumbsup:

That is absolutely awesome!  You see Don's face light up when the key was turned?  Great work to all that have (and continue) to work Don's ride!
