Re: Project 78 High Sierra
Its official!!! RIMS AND NEW TIRES!!!! $530 out the door with brand new lugs and roadside warranty stuff

Bad new though.....Im pretty sure my electric choke is broke....It idles at 1000 when its cold and as it warm up it idles higher....Must of turned it too far...opps

Also electrical is going crazy on the cluster...I need to hurry and re-wire that thing and install the throttle bracket. Then adjust the kick down cable
