Nice and Welcome aboard!


Ft. Meade......oh boy! Been there done that many a time!

Hopefully you two have read up on this car or know all about it. Did you all do the intake mod, the yellow top, and the washer fluid bottle?
If so......the ignore the rest(as you probably know this stuff).......except the last sentence.


Keep the oil topped off but not overfilled.
Check it every other fill up.
Don't turn it off cold!
Redline at least once a day, but after it's warmed up to operating temp.
Change that oil every 3k miles.
etc.

Oh.....and stay off the hood!

Wow, you're hot (sorry, but it had to be said)


anyways - just to add what mazurfer said. Be sure to check out the DIY's on stuff and research the tech forums and the aftermarket forums if you want to learn more or do more with your car. There's a wealth of information on this forum.

Happy revving!

Why do you think I used the terms "you two" and "you all" in my reply?
This was in an attempt to try and keep the leg humpers at bay for awhile before the hubby gets all bent, and we lose another female.

Still wondering about the small mods and who did them........previous owner?
I did see another thread where it appeared as they might have some prior knowledge of this car........so that's a good thing!

Heck yeah, that will be a fun job for sure.

If you can get on base and a lift, it will be easier. I've done it both ways.... lift wins hands down!

You may have broken some hearts with that husband shot, but nice ride! I LOVE the two-tone interior with the red car. Pure sex!
