    Yeah I'll have to look up the trap door mod again but it seemed really easy. Tires and battery cable are on their way up to me now, so in about 2 hours we shall see what happens with the car. Hoping this was it though, "knocks on wood" Nice power number btw Brian!

      Check O2's, I know leaded fuel can cause O2 sensor fouling, so that's where I'd look. Is it throwing any codes?

        Replaced the o2's and put new racetronix extensions in it, the hard start long crank is gone with a new battery cable ground on the car. But now it shakes pretty bad at idle and has what sounds like a crackle in the exhaust, or like a loud exhaust leak. Seems like a burnt plug wire cuz i have less throttle response than before. But no more trans issues or anything weird like that from that cable being jacked up.

          If it ain't one thing, it sure is another.

            Well I knew I was going to run into little odds and ins with it sitting for over a year. So I'm not super upset, granted running the plug wires with LT's suck... I want OTVC wires.

              So I went and checked my wires does not look like any are burnt. Put some gas in it and it stopped the car shaking really bad at lights, so now I'll be checking Fuel Pressure just to be safe. The exhaust just sounds different to me too, idk one thing at a time.
