  1. Thanks for the info! Much appreciated! Gonna post some pics when she's up on the road again.
  2. Hi ladies and gents! Haven't been on here in a grip, (Life changes) and now I am back! (With questions) Quick story : Moved from Oregon to Las Vegas for a new job/life, not to mention, different climate and about a 2000ft. elevation difference... Anyway, I had(still have it, in a box gathering dust) a 750 CFM Holley, which I used extensively... until I moved to Vegas, where it sprung a leak (I swear it was from accelerator pump diaphragm and/or stripped bowl bolt) Anyway, Nevada has emissions, and instead of fixing something that is going to hinder me on passing emissions, I got a 600 CFM Edelbrock, instead. Just got done slapping it on, changed the fuel line, everything is going smooth until I hit a snag. The kick down cable. So when I use my thumb to open the throttle, all is well, until I get to the secondaries. That is where the length of the kick down cable hinders me from opening them up. I can push the button that is on the bottom of it, to give myself a bit more leeway. But at this point the spring on the back of the housing is fully compressed. So now my question. Can I just disconnect the kickdown all together, and just manually switch gears? I'm running a slightly modified TH350 to match my ZZ4 Crate engine. I am not sure, but if I were to leave that kick down cable on, that I might burn something up... GAH. At this point any suggestions will be USEFUL Thanks ahead of time. Mike
  3. Yeah. So... on that note. Two fridays ago, I was somewhat impatient , and managed to sideswipe a camper (piggy backed camper on a truck bed) and yeah, two long scrapes later, and a nice dent... countless tears, I will NEVER, ever again, be impatient, and wait, eventhough the other person is taking all MY time in the world, to avoid a giant, but fixable money, hungry incident again. Talk to you all later!
  4. Gosh, that is a nice color. Great! Now I am torn! Vielen dank! PS: what to do, what to do... decisions
  5. Was looking at my body tag, and discovered my car was a 14/14 Cortez Silver color. Right now she is a "egg shell" white. I wanted to get her repainted. Cherry Red, with a black top, and them racing blotches in black on the hood. But I'd love to see a picture with that color combo first (14/14). I might just go back to the original color. Thanks in advance. Mike
