Hey everybody! Just bought an awesome 1980sg from Bruce in Minnesota! She is in showroom shape but as some of you might have read in past posts Bruce gave her up due to a broken case! Well I am happy to report I welded her up and she purrs like a kitten! I am however concerned that her left two cylinders are running a bit lean as those two pipes are blueing. Her right two pipes are barely golden which I feel is not such a bad thing. I have spent several hours reading the jetting tips and posts related to bluing and jetting. My game plan at this time is to replace the intake boots for general purposes, inspect all the carbs checking for float height and jetting. From my conversations with the P.O. I have pretty much concluded that with only 17,000 miles, "North Star" as I have named her(Minnesota, her former home, is also known as "the North Star State") has had no more than routine maintenance. I am curious as to were is the best place to purchase a colortune. I am also open to all of the excellent advice you good people provide. I am really greatful and consider it a great privilidge to be a member of this fine organization. After all if it were not for this group "North Star" would never have come to my attention. I am even now hoping to join a Rally sometime in '05. My other project, named "Blue Bear" is a long way from completion. But now I have an excellent ride. Thanks for all you have done! Chad
