The problems lol
Blown front intake seal
#4 cylinder intake valve rocker arm not oiling (bad lifter or flat cam lobe)
Plugs are very carbon fouled (not real sure why? carb or ignition probably)
timing 12 btdc @ 800 rpm - starting to think the distributor is a tooth off from the way it sets.
Bed had a set of tires in it
Lose negative battery wire
That's about all I can think of

I knew about the problems before I went. Just wanted to see what it would do. I plan on fixing what needs it then running again. It still feels pretty good to me for what it has and what it does.

I had fun doing it, even though I was the slowest one there. It was my first time running ever and forsure wont be the last.

Hmm..I GUESS it's good.
Just for reference, my stock 93 Saturn SC2 automatic, in DECENT weather, trapped 85mph.
But you have a lot of things going against you. LWB, 3.07's, TH400, Pegleg, and maybe not decent weather.
