for those who don't know, i've been piecing together my build for a long time... i think it's been two years since i started buying parts. and almost a year since i tore it down. S2X cam, top swap, 105# springs, ported heads/lim/blower, 42.5# injectors, double roller timing chain. didn't have much besides a 1/4" and 3/8" drive socket set and a couple jackstands. well, tonight, i started it, and it ran, and stayed running. i even drove it out of the barn. to put it in perspective, i've been through two different colleges, bought 3 other cars, had 3 different girlfriends, lost my license for 6 months, and even got it back while this build was going on. it's not tuned yet, and the radiator i put in it is cracked at the side tank and leaking coolant and transmission fluid, and the high pressure fuel line is leaking, but damn it, the f*cker runs. i don't care that this is a dead platform, or that it's not the fastest thing out there, or that nobody really outside of this forum understands why i put that much time and money into a grand prix. it's mine, and i built it, and it works. this forum has been the most helpful and most supportive group of people through this whole ordeal, and i wanted you to share in my moment of bliss.
