well driving it home from where it was stored all winter was interesting about a 1/4 mile from my house i started smelling gas. got it home and found the one injector o-ring must have ripped when i installed them or it ripped/blew out on the drive home, luckily I got that replaced over the weekend and got to take it for a proper shakedown, the car runs very nicely, in fact, better than its ever run since i became the owner. As happy as i am with how its running right now, i am still excited for the improvements Ken Hill will be able to do with the car, over the base map i have.

99% of NB's that are in a front end impact usually can never re-align that gap perfectly without either shimming or drilling out mounting holes. Just like your fender-to-bumper gaps are all out of shape too.
Not a big deal though, and more visible in pictures than real life.

thanks man!
I'll be honest.. I want the car to look great and I'd love to have the gaps perfectly aligned, but after the two year battle I've had with this car, I'm just happy the car is finally running well.
Once Ken and I start tuning next month, and i get any bugs worked out of it. Its time to have fun with it. I can focus on the finer details and really work on realigning those gaps alot better this winter when its locked up in the garage

I paid a guy 500$ after the insurance's shop got my car back looking like OP's car and it's still not 100% percent straight.
Once the inner tub is bent, the front will never look straight again.
