Hi all,

Drove my Alpine to work today, something I haven't done in many years.
Had no overheating problems, probably because it must have been in the
mid 50s this morning....I froze my ears off. I also forgot how cold
blooded these cars are. I had to run with the choke on for about 15
minutes before it would idle without it. It was fun though, ran between
4000 to 5000 rpm all the way on the freeway. I'm not sure if it's
reading correctly but I was keeping up with traffic. The speedo was
reading about 80 mph but I know that's not right. One thing I need to do
right away is adjust those Spax shocks, the car would hit a bump and
float all over the road. I also probably need to get the front end
aligned since I replaced all the front end components. I put all the
shims back where they were but the geometry may still be off. Any advice
on where to take it for a front end alignment? I'm in Orange County CA.

Sergio
