Yes, I was thinking that, yes I was.

Tri-power and CIS, I think the former left more scars on my hands and the latter more scars on my fortitude...

Swapping gaskets for cast iron plumbing dope, hmm. Wonder what the delta in velocity of air charge in the runners is. And wonder what the delta is in plug color given the fuel charge is probably biased to the front cylinders. Meh, why wonder.

I got da ramair setup for dat tripower right heyah.....

I'm curious to know if he really towed that Fiero with the 928.

Looks like a better engine hoist than an intake.

Always thought rednecks were supposed to use Pabst beer cans instead of Pringles.

Don't over look the mods on the Fiero, and the Garage mod on the camper.

Must have been running like a bag of **** before that intake if he says it's fun to drive now, after that ridiculously undersized intake manifold.
