Pontiac SOHC 6 Stockers ?

[Chris "drooze" Wertman]

Well its stopping in Atlanta for the EFI system (computer) but thats really a swap over we had it running on our SRT8.We had it done there so we could work in Parralel and they had a "clone" chassis to work with. Theyve had that since last month, had the harness done and car dialed in in about 5 days and that included them writing the custom code for the crank and cam wheel on the Hemi.... Just gotta remap for the cam and c/r and headers. That way they Just gotta throw the harness in and put the Brake lines on.....but the harness is already built, brake lines are an easy 4 hrs.....if I smoke in between stretching my legs

The items that were an issue all came together today, shifter corrected, headers and collectors on, DS Loop redone and corrected, DS Back in, interior back in, and yep looking good (12 and 16 hr days are bonzo for getting work done Even had time to post here, and see who could play Dance Dance Revolution on the Scales the best

Cutting, welding, that I can do fast....and thats what it took.....all good.

I even got to "Sign" the engine when we put it back in the other day....

Ill probably throw a few runs under it Sunday, itll take Saturday to get all the Mapping.....Im gonna try to throw some runs under it Sunday...

SRT8 Challenger runs REAL nice with the manifold Im gonna put a straight axle in it like the DP and kill the Drive By wire so I can track it....Thats next Month...Ok...April.....Ill be "off" track by then and the old man can take and run around the country like a madman.....I can be back at the shop building our next evil project.....after my son finishes his Turbo Gas Powered wheelchair....I still wanna use it as the "Ultimate" pit vehicle , complete with Handicapped sticker .... what are they gonna do tell me I cant use my wheelchair ?

So your car went from having a lot of assembly details unfinished to done in a day! And your going to California from Ohio by way of Texas to make some runs first....Hmmmmm is all I can say.......
