That upper radiator hose looks kinda old. Squeeze it. If it crunches then you'll need a new one. If not then just go about your business, lol. Good luck. How'd u figure out exhaust gases were coming out of the radiator?

Anyway, here's the car. I didn't see an introduction section of the forum, so this will have to do. Bought it for $950, and I get a free parts car too, this thing is in damn good condition for how old it is.

Here's my other ride too, my 01 Chevy Silverado. I had a 6.0L supercharged motor in it but it's broke, and I'm working on building a 408 for it that will eventually get a nice turbo setup, probably somewhere around 15 psi. I'll be shooting for the 700-800 hp range, and hopefully low 11's or so in the 1/4.
Once the truck is done and I recover from the huge financial drain, I want to put and LS1 or LS2 with a 6-speed into the Supra. I think that would be pretty badass.

Well I've been slowly working on the car, and found that the cylinder head was eroded away in a few places. Luckily the parts car had an engine with a good head on it, so I'm working on getting that one installed. Just haven't had a lot of time to mess with it unfortunately.
