Well it's been a while. update on my '86

I've been WAY busy lately, started a new job and have been working 60+ hour weeks, not to mention I've got a F*rd F550 company vehicle now, so my '86 is just for weekend duties. the Roller 350 is running like a champ still, I actually had to change my module in the distributor to a standard 4 pin one to get rid of the ESC. I tried the "cut 2 wires and tie them together mod" but my truck would never run like that. I'd lose spark. So I got a used GM module from my local u pull it, cut all the ESC crap out, used 2 spade connectors on the white/green reluctor wires, and the truck runs a WHOLE lot better now! I ditched the torn up Bench seat, becuase I actually found a custom seat in a '85 silverado in the JY (one of the bench seats that is made with 2 individual buckets and a fold down console with cupholders and armrests) even in the right color! $40! I looked up the same seat at JC whitney and it's $1,400!
I'll have some updated pics soon!
