did some more fine tuning moved the dist. back one tooth and took the little return springs off the dump carbs, to much tension on the cable i couldnt figure out what was causing this helps if you read the instructions that come with the kit first.:-)


well i tryed the SP1 clear goes on smooth i put on 3 coats ill do 3 more tomorrow looks like glass also didnt want to waste any so i used some on the frame rails and front end axle tri rod and spring since its black looks great now I have to the chrome trim around the driver opening did a test fit looks nice and covers up the edge
