    You know, the more I watch that video, the more I see how STUPID it was to continue rolling as far as I did. I was just so stunned, I didn't think to stop. Could have been ugly if I had gone much farther over and that little import had hit my drivers door. Since nothing bad did happen though, it's still funny as heck. :biglaugh:

    That is hilarious, now that it is over and no one got hurt! I fly for a living and was flying a air ambulance flight and kicked one mounted under the seat, before the days of halon extinguishers, got real interesting in the air, I know what you were feeling.

    You should drop 2-4 tenths with the new gears.Hope it works better for you but I put an MSD 6al box,MSD billet dist. & 8.8 plug wires on the old 4dr once upon a time...it ran exactly the same as it did with the stock '75 brainbox,'85 GT dist and old yellow plugwires.:16suspect At least it looked more serious under the hood.(y)
