The car continues to run well. It's so nice to jump in it after not driving it for a couple week and it fires right up and idles.

No oil yet in the catch can, so I'll probably go ahead and remove it. The fixed orifice PCV valve really helped smooth out the idle, so that's staying put.

Adjusted the valves a couple weeks ago. Definitely quieter now.

Also changed the oil for the first time. Frank recommended Penn 15W40, so that's what I went with. I mounted the remote oil filter on the core support behind the RH headlight and was concerned it would turn into a big mess, but I left just enough room below the filter for a small Tupperware dish and rag, so not bad after all. Nothing out of the ordinary in the filter.

Suspension and rear end have settled in and are quieter now.

The manual brakes work well, but I'm going to experiment with more aggressive pads. I feel like I should be able to lock up the brakes with less effort. I didn't follow the instructions closely for bedding in the pads, so that could explain it.
