    I'm a little disappointed in the Gatorade flavor but the brakes look good.

    Not a kit, I had brakes from a 75 comet to begin with and put slotted drilled rotors on

    Today, I installed a new dash speaker. Tinkered with the dash lights, some of the bulb holders are not in good shape so I ordered the LED lights off of Amazon. Fabricated a radio bezel for a modern radio. Discovered the "original" bezel that came with the car dose not fit. Will put it up for sale later when I get a picture of it. Repaired the horn and got the windshield sprayers working. Thats all I could do today, the wife got tired of me being in the shop..lol :tsk:

    they were pain in the neck to begin with. had to dent it in large areas to get in. every now and then, the factory z-bar will go from constant rubbing to getting stuck. hope the hedmans fit better in this area...

    Just bash them some more!!! They did testing on engine masters and found the dents didn't make much difference in power and they made a LOT of dents.
