Thank you sir! I sub'd to your build as well. You will LOVE the gains you get with a good exhaust attached to those headers.Originally posted by TheTacoMan View Post

Looks like they still have some in stock, the fitment was perfect for me and took about a 7 business days to get here. If they don't, I.E. has them as well!Last edited by Cronopoulos; 08-22-2012, 02:38 PM.Comment

A small update... The new rims are almost done, went 20% gloss black due to the color of the car ;) Adapters are going to be ordered, just need to get some new tires and it's go time (messed around with some effects) -
Also waxed this dirty bitch -
Interior is coming along nicely -

Enjoyed reading your build... I'm a fan of the style 32's also and have been considering them for my 88 vert with the 42 draft design adapters. Wish they were a little less dinero. Good looking car.Imported from DetroitComment

Great thread! Would like to know more about the benefit of going with a Megasquirt set up and also tuning for E-85? Just moved to Mizzou and have easy access to E-85. Would love to utilize this cheaper, alternative fuel. What are the benefits vs negatives?Comment

Thank you! I like messing with stuff and most of all I like having the ability to "change" things when I want. Megasquirt allows me to do that along with the ability to tune for different fuels among many other things... I am still learning something new everyday and applying it.Originally posted by Cha Ching View Post
E85 has its perks, it may be cheaper but you will burn more of it. ~30% more than regular. I think availability is the biggest negative for me, i have 2 maps saved for both fuels so im not stranded.
Pros -
- cheap race gas (can handle some timing = more power in essence)
- Pretty generous grey area for leniency on tuning
Cons -
- availability
- fuel system upgrades (pump/injectors/etc.)
- % of ethanol may very enough to throw off a tune, e70/e85 (winter/summer blends)
It's late and I may be forgetting some stuff but at least you get the idea. I am no expert and learning something new everyday. Hope this helps you answer some of your questions.

Well a small update, with my work so busy I havent had much time to throw money at this car. Adapaters are in and rims done. Tires are in the mail!
A HUGE shoutout to the guys over at 8380 Fab. for hooking it up with an awesome product -
