whats really funny is my gf was over and showed her the skinny steel wheels and she picked one up and said Im confused,why did you spend all that money to lighten front end and then add weight....so yes now I can order my 4 inch prostars too,but im gonna have to sell some of my stuff to order them,and the tires.im thinking m&h 27-4.5x15s,they are dot approved,any advice or thoughts..

Took off the coil spring spacers it had in the front and it dropped the nose down 2-3". Up next changing the flywheel.

Pulled my Muncie out, along with the bellhousing, clutch and flywheel. Installed a new flywheel, clutch disc, pressure plate, throwout bearing and the correct G-body belhousing & fork. Have to install the the Muncie tomorrow, along with some new Pypes mandrel bent down pipes and change the oil. Oh and threw a splash of 93 octane in her for the first time this year.

pulled all of my hair out while trying to work on the Malibu. Left upper transmission ear was broken off when I removed the trans yesterday. Had a friend TIG weld it this afternoon, realized the bellhousing I bead blasted & painted had stripped holes where the trans bolts on. Parts store was already closed. Pushed it out of my buddy's shop til tomorrow night. Ughh
