I wanna do mine soon as well as the hood vents. I almost did the vents today but couldn't. didn't have enough cut off wheels to finish every thing. I can't wait for sunday, I've been driving a lil more normal to attempt some good mpg and save some gas for sunday. Haha except earlier I 'needed' to pass someone and I definitely saw the gauge move.

Now that I installed the brown dog motor mounts it feels so much better to drive. One thing I did notice is the gas mileage. Man is the needle loving the E instead of the F. Maybe I need to switch to better plugs or something.

Injectors, header, exhaust, intake, tb mod. Take your pick all will do some good.

Did you notice an increase in engine vibration going with the poly's? LOL my gas mileage stayed the crappy same, 13.5mpgs.

I found a fog machine sitting in my garage and it gave me the idea of using it to smoke test for vacuum leaks. I'm going try it this weekend.

I don't still don't see how I get 2 more mpg then you do and I'm ten years older then you. My buddy has a smoke machine I could prob barrow it for him. The fog machine might work too.
