    At my request, a few posts were removed. I'd like to keep this thread going but was getting tired of reading the questions and comments of why the cam info is a secret. So I'll keep it here for now and delete it if becomes an issue again.

    Finally got it running in the car. Still needs some tuning. Didn't touch anything yet.

    I need a air filter too? Just kidding. 14x4 kn drop base. Hood clears when everyone told me no way it would fit.

    There was a time when I was building the GSX that I was going to put lights in it, etc. and make it streetable. My better sense told me not to and now I wish had done just that!! That would have been fun.... even if it was only a few miles at a time!! lol

    Not to hijack this thread but.... Go for it Steve! That X is way too nice for you to part with. That car can't be replaced- it's a work of art!

    and judging by op comments about idle quality, its the 3/4 smooth idle version, not the 3/4 rough idle one!!!:eek2:

    Back in the thread you were talking about the Calvert shocks, I put the 90/10's on the race car and they work great but you have to open up the control arm cause the shock body is bigger than stock.
