    checked the oil pressure today. 18-21 psi at 650 idle. calling it ok. this is with with 10w30 mobil 1 according to p.o. so switching tomorrow to valvoline high mileage 10w40 synthetic and a moroso race filter.

    Car is now also called patches. floors have been patched atleast once. oh well. win some lose some.

    my daughter has expressed interest in this being her car, so it will get fixed. it's otherwise a really decent car. Just some bs to fix like wiring/replacing front speakers, redo passenger side plug wires, found 6 cut by the ac delete pulley and 8 arcing on header. atleast he included new plug wires

    Got a feeling it gonna run 100% better after you do the plugs and wires. It's a damned good looking car, your daughter's friends will be jealous.
    305's on the rear? Can you share some details on the wheels and tires? I like em.

    275/50/17 rear 275/40/17 front, 17x9 torq thrust 2's. I really don't like torq thrust wheels, but they happen to look good on this car.

    suspension is stock height front with new stock parts, rear is stock spring with 1 coil cut.

    new fleabay valvecovers coming today, I don't like the cheap spectre ones previous owner installed, the oil cap is loose and I do not like the open breathers with a maf.

    Thanks, I wish they made the Mickeys in a 275/50. I had to jump up to a 305 to get a bigs and littles look with sticky mickeys. Nice profile on HER car.
    Oh, Those are Torq Thrust M's. They almost seem to have a satin finish. The ones on my car are the TT2's full polish.
    I'm an old school Cragar S/S five spoke guy. The Chrome Cragars have always rusted as you looked at them. They make em in polished aluminum now but the price is stupid.
    The American Torq Thrust is a decent substitute at a decent price.

    they have gray gunmetal centers. I don't want to put a sticky on this with a stock 10 bolt with 4.10's LMFAO
