Hi all,
I love this site.
I just dropped the engine between the frame rails and mounted the Hayes Scattershield and TKO 600, basic 10.5 clutch and plate with McLeod Hydraulic throw out bearing (I know, I know, some of you guys out there are not fans of these but I've used these before and had NO problems).
I'm curious about some basic improvements. I know I'll evetually upgrade the heads, but am looking for advice on some of the less expensive items: coil, plug wires, ignition, water and fuel pumps, etc. Any recomendations??
Right now I'm saving for the paint & body work so my budget is kinda tight.
Here's what I have:
