hello how the f@$k are yah??

 

long time no update,

 

currently running eb springs in the front witch handels like a dream! go kart ftw!

 

drift racing seat installed.

 

went down to my local crow cam joint and got some prices on serious cams! $110 for escort 1600 double valve springs and $60 for a cam grind. 3 - 7500 powerband.

 

i rebuilt/balanced/ported the head and put a torquey cam with 5000rpm peak? wtf was i thinking!

 

so once i finished rebuilding the cressida diff it'll become a daily till the slut gets a cam. 10:1 compression and some portage :D

I'm in the same boat with the back lights, my old 55 tail lights look like arab crack. Did you have heaps of sealant residue on the back where the old lights were though?? still trying to get the crap off 2 months later :/

neg had no problem, just had to swap the lights with bulb holders etc etc and put bolts thru the holes

cressida is now fixed.

 

the slut will be off the road soon. kebab night will be its last outing.

 

hopefully SLO-030 will send his blower cam and a spare 4k cam next week sometime.

 

escort double valve springs. 2750 - 8000rpm cam. high compression. ported head and manifold.

 

i might send my 28/36 carby off to get rebuilt aswell.

 

rust repairs will occur in that time.

 

game on

Just read the whole build and I'm very impressed!

 

I guess its hard to actually see the condition from the pictures, but the paint looks unreal! Those wheels just top it off aswell.

 

Definatly a thread i will keep checking for updates for ideas for my white squared lighted ke55
