Just stay away from upgrading the fuel. It brings more complexity. Not an issue given you are just doing cosmetic stuff. No ideas your plans but I just threw it out there given my familarity. ---

:Idiots I hate these cars (They hate me back also). Mine’s getting torn down again, I had a crank pulley issue that ultimately lead to another spun bearing (I think’). I’m going to drop off the shortblock to Synapse or Hunts and have them do it all with with factory new parts this time… Great project though! No matter how much shit I get from/for this car, I still love it. ---
