CRANK IT UP!!!



My first attempt at uploading a video. Since my family doubts my Holley addition, I must resort to video proof, much like Bigfoot, to prove that it does exist.LATER...

DOUBLE PUMPER


There it is in all its glory. The Holley 650 double pumper.
I have spent the last several hours placing a new carburetor to help deliver a bit more fuel down the cylinders of the old Capri. Let me tell you...WOW... I need to get to the track, as I can feel the extra power it has given the Capri. I spent about an hour fixing all of the leaks that the damn thing had. I think I have it adjusted pretty good. It may take some time, but this thing really could add some speed down the track. Now if I can fix the brakes. LATER...

STILL WANNA SEE MY REAR???



It has been some time since I've taken the time to post about the Capri. The back is doing much better, but I still haven't been working on the car. I did realize that I never finished explaining the new item that is in the photo above. The suspense can now end for all of you hanging on the edge of your couch waiting to know what the hell is Paul doing now. What we have is what will soon go under the Capri and help me move down the track a little quicker. It is a 8.8 Ford differential loaded with 4.10 gears, Moser 31 spline axles, Moroso exrta-long wheel studs, and a Detroit Locker unit to finish it all up. Now the big task will be to drop out the old one and get the new one in. If you remember what a task it was to get the lower control arms out, this should be a SUPER FUN experience. LATER...
