I'm assuming those aren't DRs or slicks?

Normally I'd say check to
Make sure you didn't lose any weight on the tires, but that would shake it all the time.

Sooooooooooooooooooooo, Who has a garage and tools, and wants to do a cam/converter/Ported Head Install? I'm so close to pulling the trigger on this right now, I originally planned to wait until mid summer.

My bet is bushings or the tires might be starting to give? How much tread depth is left/what's the temps when you're driving?

I just did valve springs on my driveway, how hard could it be? Lol If only you were in MD. Honest advice: go slow and buy extra pieces of anything that you might drop and lose forever in the abyss that is our engine bays. No idea where one of my keepers/locks went on the passenger side of the engine bay. Definitely not the engine though as I heard it tumble down somewhere and it sounded like it hit the frame or maybe it's stuck on the starter now.

I don't quite think trying to do a cam and torque converter in the driveway will suffice as I'll need to actually get the tranny out to change the converter.. Plus I'll need somewhere to keep everything bagged and tagged safely.

That sucks. I'm sorry. I haven't gotten any yet. Knock on wood.

I would, and I'm okay with it. You have to pay to play.

What kind of rule is that? I've never gone more than 6 months without a speeding ticket since I've started driving lol.


I mean I would like to be sympathetic, but you were going exceptionally faster than the speed limit, and if you knew the consequences of another ticket would be this, that's even worse.

Not trying to be a jerk but there is no reason ever to grant sympathy for a speeding ticket that is that high over the speed limit. You knew what you were doing! Life goes on, losing your license for 30 days will suck, but I lost mine for a year. It really makes you feel less independent. Learn from the experience and live life! Make the best of the situation, because being sad or mad about it simply won't change it.

With great power comes the great need of responsibility.
