Back on The Road Again
 
Maybe I should be mad.....You guys let me build my car with a top loader. 8 MPG, 3200 RPM on the freeway, and now I'm about deaf in my left ear. All is well now, and you are forgiven. I've had it off the road for the last year changing to a 5 speed, rebuilding the rear end, adding a nice quiet mechanical fuel pump, and building a new thermostat housing that will NOT spring a leak every 2000 miles like the old one.

Freeway speed now happens at about 2000 RPM, and the annoying buzz of the fuel pump at idle is no more! I did not drive far enough to check the MPG, but anything with double digits will be nice.

Pics of the Thermostat housing are in my gallery. If any of you guys would like one, I only charge $5 per hour. That works out to about $600, and a six month wait. Make checks payable to Jon Miller :)
