      Well the header project fell flat on it's face.
      The shop that was going to do the project was all hat and no cattle.
      I finally had to go pick the headers up........I did tweak a couple of tubes.

      Sent them off to Jet Hot........did a great job on the exterior but they failed to
      coat the insides. All I got was a 'shit happens'.
      I think I'm snake bit sometimes.

      Got the heater core replaced and MSD sent me back my distributor all nice and clean......hopefully no more rust issues.

      Got a set of chrome reverse coming for the rears and am looking strongly at maybe
      a hydraulic clutch.

        Don't you hate that when simple stuff - isn't. Still, you have the best tri-five on the planet though Squirell's is right up there, too.

          My MSD distributor gets like that too, they advised me on their website to send it to them..................too far/too costly.

            Yeah......too far for sure.
            I think they charged me like $69 for the re do.
            You'd be better off to just pop the cap and clean it yourself.
