Got her all back together and running! Took a spin around the block, and WOW what a difference! Thought I'd share a few shots of my summer project. The valve cover was painted by Rick "The Arsonist" Bacon, from Spike TV's Musclecar.

That's a thing of beauty, beauty in simplicity (the copper lines are a stroke of genius - I'm tired of having to replace heater hoses..). Makes me wanna go out and kick my cluttered up '91 EFI model... but I won't, cuz I love her, 50,000 excess smog parts and all. Good work, hope you have hundreds of thousands of miles of driving happiness!

I had the same thought, and I've already deleted the smog pump and most of the associated plumbing on my '91. For me though, I know FI better than carb setups, so I'll keep it that way.
