This header is going to mate to the existing 2-1/2" exhaust pipes. Going very well so far. Intake is now on. Those bottom nuts were a sob to get a socket or wrench on to tighten. Did you notice the billet steering rack clamps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240260280 Posted June 10, 2019 Share #110 Posted June 10, 2019 My Sept 70 parts car arrived today. Sadly it only had two front wheels on as rear suspension pulled apart when putting on flatbed. Grrrr. Anyway all is well. Back end is gone but a lot of interesting parts: BRE Spook Rear hatch with vents Dash with radio and 140psi gauge Excellent Centre console Grill Badges I need to figure out how to get the hood off to see head and front end (which I need) It also came with ZFinding floor pans and BadDog Rails in boxes ?

wheee! Posted June 10, 2019 Share #112 Posted June 10, 2019 Got the parking brakes adjusted. The Silvermine cable is a little longer than stock so I had to adjust the linkage a bit. Connected the rear brake lines and bolted the calipers down. Adjusted the rear camber settings on the top of the CX Racing coil overs to let the big meaty 225/60R16 tire’s get under the wells. Still needs a little adjusting but the Techno Toy Tuning rear lower control arms are phenomenal for adjustments!Next up is the front brake lines and some small adjustments there before I drop the car on the ground. I’ll probably fill the diff while it’s still in the air too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
