Re: Rear Spring - Who Done-This ?

Re: Straight 6 Performance?

They have a lot of torque hence the reason for thinking of putting one in. But those A frames are pretty tiny!

Manifold Replacement?

My exhaust manifolds on my 8Ba are cracked and in bad shape. Are they known for breaking upon removal or do I have a chance at getting these out with minimal problems? Anyone have a suggestion?...
