Barry,

I'm glad you got 'r done. It was a long saga, not simple as I thought, but I'm happy we had this terrific forum to vent your frustrations. It sure helped you with your english translations too.

BTW... "witch" is a female critter that rides a broomstick. "Which" is the word you need... English is a really hard language to work with.. Try to translate "got 'r done"..... (redneck slang)

Now get your props turning and ride that hotrod over to Tennessee, USA for the party in June.....

Hallo everybody... just working on my record over here. The vette is still waiting for parts : i installed pointless ingnition , removed sidepipes and mounted original performance exhausts.( 2 1/2")  BUT the box "you" send had the wrong front pipes ( i think for a BB ) and still waiting for the LT1 front pipes . Been very bussy so i can wait for the parts.
I have a new project : i'm on a sand buggy with Porsche engine on which i want to install BIG wheels for driving with my granddaughter trough our fields... pic's are coming as soon as i have it in house !

I can't believe you are losing the sidepipes!!! But they sure can cause some uncomfortable burns....

NONO, don't panic or sell my side-pipes gentlemen ! It's the idee to reinstall them with 2 Y-valves after i have the complete exhaust 2 1/2".
So i can choose from legal (city) driving or RACY noise so the cows are moving away when i'm drifting my poop a bit over them property.........
And burns ? no, i have the original covers !

Glad you have the pipes.  The "Sand Buggy" look a lot like a military jeep.  What is it really?

Ken... I think "Sand Buggy" is Belgian for "Jeep"...

yeah, my dad had the same setup on his 64 stingray back in the day. he told me that he used to have a lever operated from inside the car and would open it up on route 80 back when it was just built running through paterson! he told me that he would drag race on that stretch before it was open to use.
