Howzit okes. i just got back from the UK.. with a bag full of goodies .. engine, body and suspension goodies... i just need to work out what order to fit everything.
Engine wise we'll be changing the cams.. fitting Brian Crower 272's with springs, TIT retainers, Greddy Rocker stoppers. I got a knock off Greddy intake Manifold and a new progressive W/M system to fit. Im also considering getting ARP head studs and a New head gaskets same time as it might save on missions down the line.
i just test fitted the new rear fenders.. dam they are wide, my white 17's are about 5 inchs to thin. Even after we fit the new wheel spacers they'll still need to be widened atleast 2 inches to help fill the new Fat arch'es. And it looks like the car will be getting sprayed at the end of November

Nice, what width overfenders are those? I have an article from the sxoc.com forum bookmarked somewhere, where the guy put up a few good pics of fitting overfenders and cutting the old fenders. He cut them differently to the article you posted.
I'll try find the article and post a link to it here for you. |
