Make your Driver / Project run strong while your building it!

This kind of goes along with the last post but I'll talk some more about it anyway. Just because your saving up for a 600hp crate engine or whatever, doesn't mean your musclecar project has to languish in the garage or limp around with not even the power of a modern Honda Accord. # 1. Tune it up! You'd be amazed how much more power your car will have with a new set of spark plugs and wires and the timing and point gap set properly. Also adjust or replace the carburator. You'd be amazed at the cars running around with the float sinking, warped throttle shafts, and jetted way rich or way lean.  #2. Transmission. If it's an automatic, flush the fluid and the torque converter and install a shift improver kit. If it's a stick, make sure the clutch and shift linkage are adjusted properly. # 3. Exhaust. So many cars have crushed or rusted out or leaking exhaust systems. A good exhaust system will not only help your current engine, it's a good investment for that mega-hp engine your building. # 4. Brakes and suspension.  Replace the shocks or worn parts to make it safe to drive while you wait for that complete Hotchkiss or Air Ride setup. Making it nice to drive will motivate you to finish it.
