    I need to look into getting the oil pan gasket fixed before I'm banned from parking in the new house's driveway or garage. I refuse to park on the street. Drove it when we went to look at the house and the car left piddle spots, no longer than we were there I wasn't very happy about it.

    And does anyone know who on here was making the retro headlights? Or if they still are anymore? I thought there was someone recently who was doing them.

    hmm well i put it on a lift then put a new wheel bearing on the driver rear timek, new alternator, new powersteering pump bent the pully getting it off the ps pump had to get a new one the hard part is putting a pully on without a press. removed those noisy e-brakes, and last but not least i put on the tubular trailing arms, heads up on the trialing arms your gona need heat, a really big breaker bar and a really strong friend.

    If you are oddly weird about stuff like I am, you can still be the OEM line and fittings. It was like $30. Scotty's fix works just as well if not better as parts are easily found on the shelf, but, I have this obsessive compulsive issue that sometimes cost me more money than necessary.

    vac tubing is cheap as hell, less then a dollar a foot, i got the 2 T's in one pack for 2 bucks and 3 feet of tubing all for 5 bucks.

    the nipple under the snout is fatter then the fpr nipple, i had to spit on the nipple and inside the vac tube to get it on but it went on.

    Still getting 3.2* of KR after LIM job.

    Found my RTV "gasket" decided to blow apart, opening an exhaust leak between headers and downpipe. New gasket is on order prolly tonorrow.

    And my SC coupler is rattling like a bat outta hell. I just replaced it three months ago with a cheesy looking Dorman "OEM spec" coupler. That was a mistake. New ZZP one on order soon.
