    That is why I'm happily married with a dozen cars that don't run.

    Im in a similar boat. Rock on

    Now that I blew my wad on the S10, I gotta find $50 to get her some flowers on monday :)

    Update: I have been driving the pi$$ out of this truck and haven't found any weaknesses other than the 175mm 14" tires that like to melt in 5th gear on the highway. The exhaust is deafening; dual 2.5" with single chamber cherry bombs that dump in front of the axle, but it sure draws attention.

    I have played around with the Holley to try to get it lean enough to pass inspection and I don't hold high hopes. The single-plane LS carb intake has trouble with vacuum signal and fuel suspension when I lean it out. I haven't gotten nearly close enough to pass smog (by my estimation) and its a little too lean for drivability right now.

    So... see my upcoming thread about megasquirt :)
