...because I was without my Barracuda, due to it being in a shop, having the engine gone through.  But now, she's finally back, and running better than ever!

Before:









drumroll, please....







After:

Yea was it pulled? It looks like they painted your exhaust manifolds.

Engine pulled, cleaned up, all the seals replaced, heater solenoid was fixed, intake and valve covers were painted (apparently the manifolds got a little spray, but I'm not worried about that).  I'm waiting to clean everything else untill car show season starts, if I clean it now, it'll all just get dirty again.

No more oil drips in the driveway now? I bet your parents will appreciate that. :)

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

Hell, I'M happy about that.


Drove her around tonight for about an hour.  Noticed a miss in the engine, timings off a bit.  Have to get to that tommorow.  Probably new plugs, air filter, and fuel filter while I'm at it.
