Six Niner rides again!

hey, i drove the 69 for the first time since new engine and disc brakes! definately going to need some traction help. it spins and hops all the way through 1st and 2nd. and thats at part throttle! i dont know what made me happier-getting to drive it again or that it actually stops with the new brakes i installed. still have quite a few tweaks to make but all in all very happy with everything. heres a rundown of what was done:

30 over 390
10 to 1; C6AER ported; new adj. shafts
941 cam (impressed with the sound actually)
S code intake-600 edel.
ceramic coated headers
pertronix ignition
4 spud car tranny; 3.70 gears.
new power disc brakes.

thanks for all the help and advice you all! i'll see if i can figure out how to post pics.
