Finally got my front and rears back from having bearings pressed in. Gosh I love zinc and powder coating. Anyone have a secret for the front hubs. Snug then back out then snug again? Torque?

They are going on.  I am using this method from

 

Bill Morgan Fronts should be snugged to 18.1-21.7 ft-lb (2.5-3.0 kg-m) while turning the hub, then back off the nut 60° to align with a cotter pin hole. Starting torque should be 3.47-7.37 in-lb (4.0-8.5 kg-cm).

Just plain sexy.  

I'm hot.

(I'd be hotter if you would turn the wheel so the logo is right side up.   )

What size discs? Do they use a spacer?

No spacer needed, I believe they even work with stock.  I got them through silverminemotors

 

Got the rears ready to install and the fronts hoses all installed.  Making progress!

Got the rears installed, took a lot longer to do than expected.  Spindle pins are directional, learned that the hard way.  Also used a thin metal putty knife to slip the hub into the arms.  The tolerances are very tight. Grease, time and some learning and it went on.  

Where did you get the center caps for your wheels? I have Koenig’s and would like a red center cap. I purchased some Watanabe’s but they are way too small.

Want to sell the wat caps? Those are the stock rota caps with custom stickers. They are actually rogue squadron logos from Star Wars. 

Yes I would sell them for $100, they are 63mm

I got my extra intake back from ztherapy. I went with the euro style balance tube. They look great. I think i will have the heat shield ceramic coated in black or maybe silver. Now to decide on them or my collection mikunis. I have some sort of Japanese carb addiction.
