Then he said he couldn't hear the tires squeal because of the exhaust noise and had trouble shifting gears.

I finally told him that he just didn't know how to drive - at least my car. However, he had a big smile on his face when he talked about the power and how the tires really broke loose when you put the pedal to the metal - even though he couldn't hear them squeal.

We do have a problem. It appears that either something is draining the battery o the one wire alternator is not charging the battery. I will download the instructions and see what I can figure our.

Again Ron, thanks for all your hard work in putting everything together. I just love it when I step on the gas. I thought the Cleveland was fairly nice, but the 429 is fantastic.I need to be careful though, or I may be best friends with the local tire store manager.
The power of this car is pretty awesome. The car is more brutal then refiled. Yeah the clutch needs to be adjusted and the gas pedal too, but the car is fun. Tires do not stand a chance!
