no pics today but i got a few things done, I replaced the gasket on the drivers vent window because the old one had shrunk and caused a bad wind whistle at freeway speeds, I also replaced the vent glass because I had a passenger one in there for some reason.
The drivers door handle got replaced too since I found one in my parts pile with better chrome and I rebuilt the push button so it wouldn't stick like the one that was in there. (it was interesting driving down the road and having the door open...)
I also found my gas leak, the sender is leaking so I will pull a sender from one of my spare tanks and replace it.
I installed the rear KYB's that I had bought and forgotten about lol
I put the 4degree pinion angle shims in too
I grabbed a set of 14X5.4 ralleys with 235 60 14 tires and installed them so I now have non white wall tires and matching ralleys all the way around!!! I do need to do a touch of clearancing on the wheel lips though because in a turn they rub the sidewalls just ever so much.
And last but not least I built a custom pinion snubber that sits right below the hit plate, it actually touches the plate on acceleration unlike the stock one and amazingly enough the wheel hop is gone : )
Last week I tore apart the 360 and found out the reman crank and bearing kit I bought was causing the knock. They sold me a .10 and .30 crank with matching bearings only problem is the mains instead of being 10 weren't ground so when I put it together and went wow this sucker is really hard to turn I should had pulled it all apart again. It ate the mains and was working on taking out the rod bearings when I tore it all down. o well.
I think I am just going to rebuild the 360 for the time being and swap it back in until its feasible to do the 440.
