Re: Sinister
I have the powder for the valve covers, just may not do it as its a pain to get them clean enough with the oil & crap
The front sway bar is off a truck with a rear bar, but it looks the same as any other front bar IMO But I do plan to get a rear bar on it when I put the 20s on it... Itll need it

Re: Sinister
Well, I was driving it around for a while until it developed a problem I dont have the money to fix right now
I need to buy a new dizzy & under hood wiring harness for it, as its not getting good spark & wont run for crap It also has a noise that I havent been able to figure out, but I think it may be cam bearings  So for now its just chill'n I have to fix up another DD so I can sell my current DD, then I can fix Sinister so i have my weekend toy back

Re: Sinister
Yeah, If I wind up having to tear into the engine its gonna get built up some
Vortec heads, Edelbrock Performer RPM cam, Clevite 77 bearings, Flat top pistons, & Roller rockers with good springs I already plan to buy a Taylor stage 2 dizzy, so it'll get good spark after that And I'm either gonna re-wire my under hood harness or buy a new one I havent ran the numbers for HP with those mods, but Im expecting a solid 400 |
