Watts link installed and adjusted. Zero side to side movement from full air to aired out. It's a nice piece. Did you order one?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: Watts link info

I just finished up mine and I held a square up to it from the floor and I have 0 side to side movement. It works great and looks kinda cool too....

Re: Watts link info

installing on my blazer was not as straight forward as I expected because of the rear crossmember in front of my gas tank. I had to modify it for clearance. But, I don't think that trucks would have this problem. It was real easy to set up. I would do it again if I had too.

Yes it was KP. I used the 67-72 2wd chevy truck kit, but I used it on my blazer. I had to use the weld on plates that were included in the kit because my frame in not boxed. The kit is only bolt on if you have a step notch or you box your frame. But, it was still fairly easy to install once I relocated my rear crossmember (this step is not need for a truck- I think).

I didn't see the 67-72 kit on the website, but it looks just like this one. Same price. Its is not painted or coated.
