Only 231 HP
New plugs, new distributor cap and rotor, new cat, Passed SMOG , AFM adjust and a few vacuum leaks sourced and fixed by Jim: (Draco A50G). As an ROW with a Steve Wong chip this thing is the tits. Fast enough to scare me.

Just remember any old SC could snuff you if driven by (the real) Vic Elford.  Your crib looks pretty sweet.

Hated giving our sponsor $531 for a new Catalytic Converter, but the junk that fell out of it and the difference in back pressure after Draco A50G adjusted the AFM is like night and day. I mean it runs like a scalded cat now. I had 2,000 ppm of NOX and failed SMOG as a GROSS POLLUTER ,after with a new O2 sensor and new cat I had 25 ppm of NOx. (Allowable was like 660 ppm). Living in SoCal, I have to do the SMOG thing every two years, so I think I'm good for a few more years. Yeah, I think I smoked that Vic Elford guy at Willow Springs today.... NOT.

Hope to see you in a month or so. Two weeks in AU and NZ (Wellington for a week to be precise).
Los Angeles to Auckland to Brisbane to Wellington to Auckland to Los Angeles, $6,000, ouch. Glad I'm not paying it.

Sounds fun and we'll take the mighty SC
 out for a run too.I've booked those days (not that I do anything anyway hehe) to be your navigator so you don't get lost. I even know the home addresses of James Cameron and Peter Jackson so we could turn up with beers

Curious about your back pressure statement. My '84 arrived cat-less. Put one back on and thought it was a lot quicker with the back pressure at low to mid revs. Probably lost something at the top end, but overall seemed much more responsive with the cat installed.
