Turbo time!

I have an old Bluepoint OBD1 reader that I picked up years ago. The FWD logic module was reading an excessive rich code. The MP one is showing code 54. I've replaced the HEP with a NOS Mopar one. The car runs and boosts fine when cold. After the O2 sensor kicks in it goes into limp mode and won't build boost. The O2 got beat up taking the turbo in and out several times, and honestly it probably got soaked in oil from the leak so I'll start by replacing it

Decided that Tony shouldn't be having all the fun to himself, so yesterday I buttoned up the Shelby's engine.

My plan was to take advantage of today's beautiful weather and go to the DMV this morning, get a temporary operator's permit, drive the Shelby to the local car wash and remove 3+ years of garage dust, then drive it to work today and have it smog tested, then go get my new registration/tag tomorrow. Great plan! Can't miss!

It wasn't until I pulled into the DMV parking lot in the Corvette that I remembered today is Veterans Day.. and thus the DMV is closed. So much for my plans.

(BTW: THANK YOU to all you veterans who have served our country!)
