Rogue_Wulff is on a distinguished road
Default New toy...

Picked up an 84 SE a few days ago. Still has the 6P 13B stock.
Mods on the car:
RB holley intake with new Edelbrock 600
RB street header system, with unknown rear muffler
New radiator and hoses, thermostatic controled E-fan
DLIDFS (3 gm HEI modules and 3 MSD Blaster coils)
New Falken 512 205/60-14 on stock SE wheels
All of this stuff has been added in the last 2 years, none has more than 50 miles on it, except exhaust and intake manifold.

The following was included, but not yet installed:
New slotted brake rotors (4)
New front and rear pads
Stainless brake hoses
Carter fuel pump
Pair of door windows, tinted to match the rear hatch glass installed to delete rear wiper.
Complete S3 dash, in good condition, to replace the ripped dash in the car.
Also came with a holly 600 vac sec, and a holley 650 DP.

The price? Cost of fuel for the 200 mile round trip. (~$50)
The car belonged to a guy I know that's in the service. He was getting transfered, and this car wouldn't run, so he couldn't take it back to his home state. He did, however, get the FD back home.

When I picked up the car, it would barely start and run. The carb had issues, and the dizzy was retarded 1-2 teeth. Both are now resolved, aside from minor tuning left to do. The front pulley is 1/4 turn off, so I need to correct that before I can finish tuning it.
It runs like a raped ape, aside from not idling very smooth.


I know plenty of guys are at me right now, for scoring such a great deal. I can live with that......
