it's alive !!!! sort of.

well, she is once again alive.. i finish my transplant and started driving the seven again last night.. but there are still a couple bugs to get out.. any help would be appreciated..

the only big change that i did to the car was replacing the exhaust with a rb one. so i had to strip out the exhaust manifold, air pump, and acv.. i fassioned a couple block off plates to cover the new holes.....


first, is that when i turn the key on to acc or on, the fuel pump keeps clicking.. any ideas why?

second problem is that i have to stall the car to shut it off. before i had the clutch working, i had to pull the wires so that the plugs would not fire.. key works to turn the car on, but does nothing when turning it off...

and last problem that i know of right now, is that the car cuts out on the top end. it seams to be speed related (as far as i can tell with no dash and no working tac).. usually around 90 or so the car just stops pulling, like there is a governer. i say usually 90, becuase it has hit me at around 80 before, and one not untill 105.... i used to be able to get the car up to 125-130 so i know there is is more engine left....
