I didn't even get a picture of the interior, not too shabby for peeling the cover off and snapping a photo of it. Thanks guys, it would be hard to let it go.

I recently had mine inspected:

A few days ago, I had to update the registration on my 93 which requires a state inspection. On cars prior to the OBD port, the inspection involves running them on a dyno with a tailpipe sniffer to check emissions. The car passed with flying colors. The tester said he was surprised the numbers were so good for a car that old (it only has 11,000 miles).

The tester did let me do the drive/brake test while he watched from outside, but I couldn't talk him into me driving it on the dyno - they have in the past, but the boss was there that day and said NO!

Once a car is 25 years past the date of manufacture, the smog dyno is no longer required. My 89 is now exempt.

Video of car on the rollers below the picture.

I swapped out the pulley on the supercharger, went down two sizes. 3.33 to 3.12, looks like I gained around 3 - 3.5 pounds of boost.
Traffic was heavy all around town this afternoon and really did not get to test it out too much.
Things happen so fast, car is pulling hard, tires break traction shift light goes on. trying to see A/F all at the same time. Traction was a problem today. Did look like 3 lbs. Going to get some seat time in this weekend.
A/F was 11.6 -11.7 still, no detonation.
When it was hooking it was pulling pretty hard. Could hear the difference in the whine.

Vortech SCi 5-6 lb kit, 6in crank and now 3.12 blower pulley, upgraded discharge pipe w/bypass, silicon intake elbows.
GT40X heads, E-cam, 42#, 75mm MAF, 3:73 gears.

Sounds nice!
Like the combo. So you making 9-10lbs? How much more can you get out of the SCi?

Sounds awesome, just be careful and keep your ears out for detonation. I used to spin my old S-Trim pretty hard, only issue was alot more heat. Enjoy! :headbang:
