[QUOTE=diamonddog;7848344]Ask and you shall receive... Sorry for the crappy pics. Need to get it out of the garage for better ones. New wheels are 17X10 and 17X9 Anniversary Cobras. 255/40/17 Bridgestones on the front and 315/35/17 Vred's in the back. Rolled fenders and no quads to get them to fit. Also need to beat the inner fenders but havent done that yet.
BEAT THEM IN AS MUCH AS U CAN!! the rear axle rolls side to side and they rub. i got 315's out back too and man o man did they fit tight haha. i really wanna see this beast done! lol
-tye

Done....probably never
It should be road worthy in a few months. Im currently triple checking all my work before I fire it up. I have a 4lb spring in the gate currently til I make sure all the bugs are gone and the rings,clutch, bearing. etc are well seated. Actually still trying to decide on which clutch but I know by the end of the week.
As for the fender wells, I havent touched them yet cause Im installing some suspension parts soon and gonna do it all at once. I hipe new bushings will keep the rear in check somewhat.
I'll keep updates coming as work gets done...which is SLOW

ITS ALIVE!!!!
Started right up (once I restabbed the dizzy). Wouldnt do a video cause its got a nasty exhaust leak. It seems I only plugged one of the smog ports at the back of the heads. Other then that, I gotta top off the fluids and a video will be up.
maybe tomorrow for the vid.

Its a great feeling when the motor comes to life. I'm glad those smog ports are at the back of the heads. I cut the tubes off used the ends to plug the holes. I thought about welding them up but if would make them useless if I ever wanted to sell the heads.
Great work bro.
