First time I've been able to get the Red Sled on the road and down the street with some new custom code. Seems to be working rather nicely considering the plug fouling I did yesterday with a RICH idle tune.
The tuning I can get done but it just started pulling to the left real bad which has me worried. I replaced the power steering box, idler arm, and built my own steering shaft so I'm hoping it's either the box or just an alignment. I'm going to do some more testing tomorrow with the steering because as it sits I can't even drive it more than 30mph without fighting it :( .
Did a little burn-out for the neighbors kids, they liked it. Also drove by some neighbors kids that just moved here from England and probably have never heard an american v8 so I bet I made their day.

This may be a dumb question, but did you check the air pressure in all your tires? that might be whats causing it to pull. That happened to me once. The right front tire was pretty low and it was pulling like a MFer. Just thought you might want to check that before you shell out a bunch of money for an alignment.
