Hey Scotty I have a 1987 Pontiac Firebird Formula with a 350 cubic inch engine. I use the car for my daily driver. I drive to lodi from Lockeford here in California. It takes 30 minutes to get to lodi and it’s 55 but I drive about 60 there. Is that a good amount of time to help the engine or should I drive some where further to get closer to that 2 hour mark like you say. Thanks Scotty for you amazing videos.

Its not easy or even cheap to find a good mechanic, but after you spend so much its all worth it when you find a mechanic you can trust finally. You might get ripped off in the process sure, but at the same time you learn who to avoid. Its an unfortunate cost vs reward system but still good information to compile.

Im only 26 but still remember getting mad at my dad for cleaning the carb on the dirtbike without me for the first time when i was about six years old. I wanted to learn damn it! Lol Ironically a young lad like myself prefers jetting a carb over firing up a PC and tuning software, its not a hating technology thing either its more so a cost issue. Some of these softwares are like $1000+ and since i only primarily do my own maintenance i just havent the need for something that expensive to tune. I could swap a Holley or Edlebrock setup into it for a fraction of the price and tune it just as easily, but for the time being i dont mind taking it to my mechanic for that kinda work.
