Thanks guys, all is good with me. I have 2 kids now (4 and 7), I moved around two years ago to a bigger house with a bigger garage, and just added a few years to my teaching pension since my last stretch of activity here. My car is holding up. I've decided to keep it, I always wanted this...

Thanks for the input guys. I'm bouncing this around.

The week in review: 1. Put new tires on the back. I was running a set of used 255/60/15 bfg's for around 5 years. Really dumb. They had slight dry rot on the outer side (visible) and I kept ignoring it, knowing that I could loose the car. I've been holding out because I wanted new rims and...

Your question has been here a while, but if just in case you are still wondering on run 245/60/15 on front 15x7's and I have no problems.

Sounds like a nice car. Good color, serious engine. Welcome.

If I'm revisiting a previous post let me know. I saw it mentioned but not discussed at length. The link is this: http://www.madelectrical.com/electricaltech/amp-gauges.shtml I've read this page many times, and a lot of commentary on other boards surrounding it as well as ammeter issues...

Welcome. Sounds like an inexpensive undertaking....:)

Wow, that's a cool fleet you have.

Hey guys, dropped off for a few years. Still have my car, regained my enthusiasm for it. Good to be back, will try not to ask too many dumb tech questions. Now going to try to update avatar. I haven't used this "new" page yet, may be an indication of how long I've been out of it. -Sam

Watching all these shows on cable TV where guys get these muscle cars and put fuel injected engines in them seems pretty cool. Also looks like something that will become increasingly popular as people figure it out, more kits come out, prices come down (all of that is speculation of course...

Ok....I read the thread a few times...where the tent or meeting place? I'm not seeing it here. All I see is noon on saturday.

BTW - not bringing my car.

Saturday morning through Sunday noon or so.

Great looking car man. I got no problems with 68's, I'd be in one if I didn't stumble on mine first!

Cool story, good for you man. The cars look great.

Ray - based upon the previous 4 thousand threads dedicated to this and your contributions to them I figured that 15x8 with 4-4.5 backspace was essential as you mentioned above. I got a little excited when it came up that 15x7.5 "would work." I've got 15x7.5 on the front of my car. See avatar...

Blame Basketcase, he made me do it. I'm looking for a set of slot mags (a pair) at Carlisle. I want to run 275/60's on the back of my car. To do that (according to tirerack.com) I need at least a 15x8 rim. Basket case is saying I can get away with 15x7.5. Right now I've got 15x8.5 with 3.5...

Mine's a 4bbl with about a 1 inch spacer. My car has had it's share of headaches but not this one. Two pumps and it usually fires right away. No choke but you just work around that.

Just checking in here...I'll meet up wherever. Give details on Steve's tent. As far as the mags go, I think I need a 15x8 in order to fit a set of 275/60's but if somebody thinks the 15x7.5 works chime in. Probably better for a different thread.
