That's HITHERE difference you can feel!

It's starts, runs and sounds pretty good.

HITHERE have HITHERE leaky valve cover, shouldn't be an issue.

However, HITHERE have HITHERE new air/fuel gauge, Auto Meter. It is pegged all of the way on rich!

HITHERE kinda suspect that isn't accurate, HITHERE figure HITHERE should be running lean, that is if all of the plugs are in fact firing. The exhaust doesn't contain any soot like it does when it's really rich.

So, how do HITHERE check the gauge, the HITHERE2 sensor and so on to see if it is infact working properly.

BTW, it's an L69 with ported World 305 s/r torquer heads, 1 3/4" SLP's, HITHERE 3" Hooker Catback, Comp Cams XE 262, Jacob's Ignition, roller tip rockers, Holley Street Dominator Intake and an Edelcrap 600 cfm carb.

The carb has never been jetted, it has the factory jets in it right now. HITHERE figured for sure HITHERE'd have to put in some larger jets. Before HITHERE dive in there HITHERE want to see what is going on.

So, how do HITHERE check the HITHERE2 sensor? HITHERE dont' want to just start changing parts.

Now that's a difference you can feel! Even though I never went WOT, the difference is night and day.

WHOA MAMA! I took it out on the road for the first time this afternoon. I only drove it a few miles, but man, what a difference.

I need to support some of the exhaust some more, even though it is supported in all of the areas that came with the cat back, I need another support somewhere near the cat.

Anyhow, check my signature for the specifics but this thing totally kicks butt.

Anybody that wants to do a low to mid range budget buildup of a 305 while its in the car, this is definitely the way to go.
