Took Her for A Quik Spin Today
well today i went to buster with a couple parts needed to still make the down pipe and when i get there he has it all done..
so i put the intake back on and went home not planning on doing anything becuz i have a leak in the radiator well it was knawing at me to drive it so i took my keys and i was off to busters well i got up there and had some trouble starting it cuz of the dead battery but finally got it started and let it idle till at normal temp then backed it up and startd to go well i got to the end of the driveway and there was a truck comeing so i went to hit the brakes and ididnt have any...lol it was scary.. i forgot to pump them back up cuz we replace the brakes and rotor well i took it for a quik spin and it doesnt seem very fast but mostly cuz i dont have any thing to compare it to considering i dont have a speedo... but it was nice and i think it was fast but i had to shut it down to fast cuz i had coolant everywere and the temp guage got to H so i shut it down and let it sit for about 5 mins and then went about half of a mile and tried to keep the temp low...
but now im waiting on the new radiator and then ill have it going im making the hood fit tomorrow... and then im going to properly set in the clutch i figure a week of going to school and work should do it... but idk well that prolly wouldnt be good thats only like 100 miles ill take it to the next town away about 100 miles and back and that will get it up there

went and got some radiator stop leak today and its held up fine and i only need it till mid this week.. so yeah its pretty fast ill have to get some videos up later.. we made the hood look like crap though cuz i didnt have the DOHC hood so we just cut that part out on one side and bubbled it over... it does look like crap but nothing touches so thats all i care about right now
