runs like a champ. just finished a 3,500 mile marathon trip from colorado to cali and back. She boosts to 7lbs and I can climb mountain passes at 80mph in 4th gear where before I would do 60 in 3rd. I just love her now. egt gets as high as 1450 but water temp is never above 212 and this is climbing passes in Az at 80 mph with ac on and 100' outside. I havn't added any fuel/spark management but have a narrow band a/f meter and it doesn't lean out. I have a new supra TT fuel pump waiting for install- I havn't pushed her above 4000 rpms as i don't want to lean her out. how do i post pics

Two thumbsup for innovation!. Try the Schedule 10 SS next time around instead of the Schedule 40...........just a tad lighter!

 

I will help ya out a little bit. Very nice set-up. The bumper doesn't look half bad either.
