Dave,

There's a detailed write-up in Classifieds/Cars for sale. It includes a link to the pics.

Thanks for looking.

Price reduced to $4,500

Well...the response so far has vastly underwhelmed my expectations!

So, special to you guys - this weekend only: $4,500.

And I don't care anymore if it's parted.

I just posted my '89 SC for sale in case anyone in the area is interested. I'd love to see it running again locally.

In mid-2007 this car exhibited white exhaust smoke symptoms of burning coolant, so I stopped driving it. It has been in an outside storage yard in SoCal where I live ever since - I have no room for...

Hi folks,

I'm trying to contact Ron Garcia (RonzSC) but I guess my info is outdated. Anyone know how I can reach him?

Thanks.

John

MadMikey, I've heard about this too...but I just don't have the huevos to try it.;)

Mike, nothing was noticed pre-assembly. The leak does seem to be very slow and with no trace of seepage anywhere on the outside. It stumbles briefly on startup but clears up fast then seems to run...

Duane,

We can always count on you for out-of-the-box thinking. But, if I didn't know better, I'd say you were a lunatic. However, I believe that any man who drinks his beer from an old gas can...

Thanks for the input, guys.

I saw the pics of your heads, Mike. That's some serious crack! I'm hoping that mine is a lot smaller or just a porosity problem. Also, mine is leaking to the inside....

I have reworked heads. Coolant is slowly disappearing and symptoms indicate a crack or porosity in an intake port - not likely a head gasket. Current coolant is demineralized water with Water Wetter....

You know you have to come back sometime. It's right up the street. Get it done, eh. :D

Al, actually my best MPH was 110.71 at Carlsbad. But, you're right, at CA Speedway it was around 106. Looking forward to getting back to the track but need to sort out some current issues first. ...

If your 91 is like my 89, the octane plug is near the firewall far passenger side.

Wow, Manny, that's a helluva offer! Thanks very much.

I'm not looking for anything new right now, but I'll keep that in mind.

You da' man!

Not to belabor this, Scott, but no apology is necessary. I was just surprised to hear that you might be willing to make your own ethanol; not the idea of using it. Maybe my post came off sounding...

"But I'm thinking I could distill my own"

No offense man, but I can't see how the pros could possibly outweigh this con.

From my personal experience, I haven't operated a still since I left...

Don't forget, Mike: Engine Coolant Only! :eek:

We opened all of our doors and windows, to let it blow the dust out!:eek: Must have saved us weeks of housecleaning!

Last I saw, our dust seemed to be headed toward Anthony's house. Small...

Long (boring) story. Hopefully, next time.

Excuse me, but I take exception to that stereotyping. :p

I agree with Kurt. If you're going to all the trouble/expense of improving the intake, optimize it and don't be limited by the hood.

Merry Christmas, dudes!

My wife appreciated your salsa complement, Al. I'll bring some to Fontana. What I don't use for fuel, we can try with chips!

I'm planning to go, Jose. I'll be racin'.

Nope, Al; I had the Bird, but was just spectating. Not quite safely ready for prime time yet. Hope to get my ship together for the 13th. Try to stop by if you can.
