It's looking like I'm going to try to drive it into town tomorrow morning, and see how it does on it's maiden voyage.

Took the Grande to the local track (2 1/2 hr drive .. Was raining and lots of dirt on road .. Hence dirty car ). Was a great day at the track .. Only did 3 runs. Previous to this I had not run sub 12 sec run in Canada .. 11.64 was faster on paper run (first pass at drag week 2013 ) First run sat. 11.44. Sec 11.37 Third below 11.29. .. Then replaced all 4 tires and drove home .. Car went straight and fast ..2 Photos

finally bought some wheels. squeezed some 275 mickey thompson radials on a 5.5 inch backspace 15x10. got them under the car a bit. no go fast stuff done yet. got a pro billet distributor the other day. still trying to put together a budget for more goodies. bob, your car is even dirtier than mine! love your drag wheels.1980 Turbo T/A - Turbocharged 408ci Pontiac. survived DW 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015

Every time I see that tiny air filter I think of this:
