1st Day driving 68 Cutlass to work

Finally have it running with air conditioning. Changed cam, lifter, valve springs, pushrod, intake, carb. Runs decent, but that jetaway trans yuck. I have low vacuum from manifold and assuming it's from dashboard hoses. It makes trans shift late, like 50 mph with medium acceleration.

You will work out the kinks. All of our cars pretty much face the same things. Especially as we first get them on the road.

Your car looks great. I love the white. Love the wheels on there too. Nice job.
