    1971 Coupe resto-mod

    Wow your not joking around when it comes to the metal work. Takes a real artist to do all that. Can't wait to see the end result.

    Distributor and Ignition Info Thread

    Blaster 2 coil and street fire wire (MSD) You can use what ever brand plug you prefer. Opinions differ on brands. Just be sure to use the ones that are car specific. You don't want to change the temp of the plug to hotter or colder. When it comes to the gap do your own research. Look it up...

    Anyone replace their Power Steering gear box?

    Has any one done the steering box from a jeep swap yet? How did it turn out? And what is involved with switching to variable ratio box? My power steering is way too much assist. Feels like 99% assist. And dangerous really.Hit a bump and arm moves and you have changed lanes. Way too easy to...

    Muffler question

    You don't need a 2.5" system untill you're over 400 HP. The exhaust size is determined on HP not displacement. Center in offset out is what I have under mine. 2.25" with true X pipe.
