Ok, couple updates.

Got the front coil springs swapped out, brought the front end up about 1-1.25", and it doesn't bottom out anymore, unless I hit a bad dip at speed. Much much better, and can love with it. Think I could have went to a slightly higher rate, but I will live with it. I may see if I can install a slightly higher bumper stop, will see.

My TrueTrac, ring & pinion, and install kit came in to rebuild the rear, just need to order some ARP ring gear bolts. The ones that come in the kit have a head where you need to use a thin wall socket, and still is a PITA, the ARP ones I'm told make it much easier. Should get this knocked out in next couple weeks.

Still not happy with the fuel sending unit, may have to go to a vertical float type, it just isn't accurate to my liking.

The Tanks, Inc efi tank isn't working as well as I had hoped, under a half a tank it can suck air, and as it reaches a 1/4 tank, it gets worse. I did at one time run it out of gas, had to restart twice to get it up to a pump to fill it, but going slow, it just about sucks the tank dry, was about 1.5-2 gal at most left in it, calculated by the amount it took to fill it back up. I may have to resort to getting a Rick's tank, the one with added baffling.

Still have some tuning to do, and am really starting to think the throttle body is too small. It's a CTS-V 90 or 92mm, forget which one, but believe it's giving up flow past say like 4500-5000 RPM. Think I'm going to look into a 102mm, see how that responds.

Friend took a short vid, figured I'd post it:

Still need to fix the exhaust, tailpipes are uneven and IMO too low, and they are about 1.5-2" too long, need to tuck them in some. That stuff drives me nuts.

My paint/body guy picked up my 'bird, it's in-process, and need to swap engine in 442, plus add the Vintage Air before the 'bird comes home. I'm swamped. Trying to fix up the house, I am dyeing to move, need more garage space, and sick of the area I live in....
