#663 Here

Have about 500 miles under my ownership as of two weeks ago. Totaling just over 15,000 on the car. Car has a Smeding "427" (351w block). 540hp/540tq at the crank.

It's a fun little car. Not a ton of power, but enough for a smile on your face. (I have a turbo e46 m3 on e85 with 870hp at the tires)

Looks like the fuel gauge on these cars is a very common problem. Can confirm the issue on mine as well.

Previous owner(s) did a great job maintaining this car. I've never had a carbureted engine start/idle/drive/decelerate better than this car. Phenomenal job there.
