Got a smaller air cleaner as the other one was just barely resting on the HEI. Ran new HEI power and tach wires as the old ones had no clips and would vibrate loose. I also hooked up my new gauges. I think I need to get a better ground as when I put on the turn signal, both the oil and the volt gauge starts bliping with the turn signals.
Took her out cruising and man does this thing pull. The old 305 wasn't a slouch, but WOW what a difference. Even with 2.76 rear gears, it is hard not to light up the tires.
On the highway it cruises real good. Doing 75ish it runs around 2800 RPM and at 65 it seems to be around 2300-2400 range.
Now to polish Jr up for Cruising the Coast
Here is what she sounds like with the pipes hooked up.
