Should be. I can always put the old filters back on. I hate to admit it but I don't think I'm going to like the pedals. Mostly the clutch. I think they are going back on the floor. Oh well only one way to find out. Now I know.

Not yet. I have a feeling that my front springs are to stiff and the back to soft. Starting to sound like Goldylocks . Anyway I figure on running at the Cold Spot next weekend and see how it feels. Go from there.

Great job, that thing looks bad ass! I bet its a great feeling to have it all back together again. As far as the pedals go....look at it this way, if nothing else you ended up with a cool looking hood 8)

Looks awesome, Dean!! Saw a pair of your trailing arms this weekend on my buddy Kenny's (gustograber) new buggy at D&K. They look great, and he is very happy with them. He was also impressed (me too!) at the way you handled the little problem with his first pair.

I bet you'll have butt load of people checking out your site the first time they see your buggy on the trailer going to a ride. I have always been one to see a site posted on a show car or something, and I can't help but to go home and check them out.

I really like your idea and fab work for your aircleaners. I'm still running Garbage cans, they work but just look like A##. Looks like the cannister/ remote filter is on my list of improvements.

May not happen this year I have about $12.00 in Krylon invested. I think I'm gonna try not to scratch it.

This modification is on my list for this year as well. I have been saving up for the stuff. I want to go with all UMP Products. (unique metal products)

Please take it out for a test drive BEFORE you install the MSD. That way you will be able to actually "feel" the difference it made in the performance of your motor. You will wonder why you didn't do it years ago.

Thats no lie. MSD is the shiznit. Dont think you could foul a plug if you turned off the motor and pumped the pedal til the bowls were empty! If you get the MSD billet dizzy, I hope you dont make the same mistake I did in thinking its a sealed unit and not bag it when you pressure wash the buggy after you ride. For some reason I had it in my head that the cap had an o-ring around it where it meets the body of the dizzy. Went a whole season just spraying the hell out of it every cleaning. But , it still started with out a hitch immediately after washing!! I never even noticed a problem until I was getting ready for the first ride the following season and pulled the cap off just to check and there was RUST all over inside the distributor. Just cleaned it off best I could, cleaned the rotor real good, blew it all out and put it back together. That was season before this, and not even a hiccup STILL! I dont see how any ignition system could be any better. (Except for maybe an o-ring around the cap!) :lol:

Silicone grease works good for this. Keeps it dry in there.

Good idea! Like grease around the edge of the cap where it sits on the distributor, or some spray silicone inside the cap itself?

Silicone grease around the edge of the cap. Also known as tune up grease or dielectric grease. Also a must for around the plug wire boots where they go on the cap and the spark plugs.
