    Yeah it's mostly a safety feature, I think it's a good idea. The engine is in!!!

      Hmm... It still makes me wonder if I can't go rob a 323.

          A lot of Generic Motors are wired this way. Its a pretty good system.

          I think I just read in the manual that our switchs are 6psi. I'm really impressed with how quickly you got her put together. Great work Drummer ! I was surprised when you said you might go Turbo in the future though? Would you make the switch to Fuel Injected then?

            • Nope would be building a blow through system on my weber, weber is pretty well set up for blow through. But im still undecided, matt says ill prob be extremely happy with this setup n/a, plus would need a different cam for turbo so i will see once i get this broke in and can really get into it to see how well it does then go from there.

                  • Will do, but literally just dropped it in and got the shifter hooked up still have to hook everything up, fill it with fluids, do my brakes before i put the axles back in, then start it. Will do a first start up video and can do a driving video but cant really get into the throttle till after 500 miles. Once its broke in then will have some fun and post some videosnthego:

                          If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?
