Now through the wonders of modern science, you can hear for yourself what the engine sounds like, after I removed those pesky dripper shields.

Just click on the photo:

Sounds Great. I still want to know why people block out their plate?

[Guilty]

Probably because those microfiber towels and shop rags are a perfect size to block your plate!!!!!

Drove the T/A to a cruise night in Hamilton, NJ last night, around 90 miles round trip. Ran great and actually got 11.1 mpg highway. A new record!

[Brewster]

You must have really been driving mellow to achieve that kind a mpg huh?

[njsteve]

LOL. The car cruises so nicely at around 75-80 mph (alledgedly).

The funny thing is that I just filled up the tank in the Gramma's 75 Firebird (with the freshly rebuilt 350) and it got 11.1 mpg, too.

At least I can say I have a consistant driving technique.

A little test driving fun this evening...

(All within the posted speed limit, of course)

Why I drive a Pontiac! Very good audio quality in that clip. Reminds me of the car used in McQ. What color was that car again Brewster?

LOL. It took four re-takes before I noticed I had my finger over the mike on the camera and it wasn't recording any sound.

Once I got that sorted out you can hear the sound of the Gardner reproduction exhaust pretty well, even with the windows rolled up.

You must have some really short gears in that diff if all of that was within the law! LOL

My attorney says the correct response to your question should be "Alledgedly, yes."

So you are saying that you can neither confirm or deny that the car was going that fast? Ha ha, that's how my wife talks about stuff that goes on at work (pentagon). LOL!!!

Sooooo...in keeping with the legal-speak theme that seems to have developed:

You admit then, that you allegedly accellerated your vehicle very rapidly over a relatively short distance at maximum throttle input while remarkably remaining within the posted speed limit - isn't that true? And furthermore, that you did so at least four times with only one hand on the steering wheel as you attempted to make a video record of this driving display using a digital electronic video recording device - didn't you?

No further questions Your Honor, I'll pass the witness.

Well, members of the jury, that would assume that my client used only his hands and feet to operate the vehicle.

My distinguished opposing counsel seems to have neglected the fact that as a male, my client has an additional "appendage" that he may or may not have been holding the wheel and/or camera with, thus fully complying with the "10 and 2" wheel position while shifting, operating the clutch, brakes and accellerator with his feet, and alledgedly filming.

We can talk about the beautiful engine/exhaust...but let's not discount that familiar transmission "turbo whine" shall we? Wonder what that is...
Sounds awesome dude.
