Ok so it's been a long time coming but here it is before and after shots of the Maro's Intake / carb set up. The timing and air/fuel is still a little tiny bit off from where i want it to be, but the drive home from my buddy's place was still loads more powerful than before. OK here we go...........

So more power fixed your transmission? That's pretty damn cool right there. I'm gonna have to remember that the next time I kill a tranny.
Nice work on the swap though.  |

Could be a heat soak problem.  Better do a burnout while you can. 
BTW, intake swap took three days? Waiting on parts much? |

No we started tearing into it on sat. but the girls tricked us into going out to the bar where my buddy's wife and i got so freakin trashed that we spent like an hour in the parking lot blowing chunks at the end of the night. ( She challenged me to a drink off) She blew chunks first... So the next day we were all pretty messed up. We tried to get it all put back on and together but the rain and the headaches wouldn't let us. so i went up after work and got it done enough to bring home...

No, that's just the kind of against the grain hot rodding that someone who swaps AC back into their car would like.
