Officially pooped out now.

Had a buzz after start up. It turned out to be a cracked exhaust manifold. Darn had to in stall the header. It turned out to be easy to R&R than I thought.

Had a burst of energy yesterday Jay, today my "wax on, wax off" muscles are aching.

Herbie got a new battery today, the old one was only showing 12.4 volts and was six years old. Alternator was good, output was over 14 volts. Next item to change is the coolant and t-stat, if the weather is warm enough tomorrow.

WSOC says 66 and sunny tomorrow, sounds like perfect weather to tinker with Herbie.

Stopped to fill up and the car was just washed and detailed so I thought I'd snap a quick pic!

She's at the muffler shop inspecting for damage caused by a rock I hit last weekend. The rock somehow lodged itself in my exhaust system and completely tweaked everything from about mid-car back. While she's there I'm having a new tip installed too to freshen things up.
