SS Slant Six Dart

-
ok so going to install the new romac balancer as the stocker is spinning...

so yanking the front end apart and the stick holding the hood lost traction and hit me in the face, and the hood smacked me in the back of the head...

but anyways looking to deal with rad fit issues and some other things...

Lookin good. Chop chop hop sing.
 
You mean .002" interference. .002" clearance and it'd fall off when you took the bolt out. lol Yeah post some pics of your face. Everybody else does when there's carnage involved. Let's see it.

could be a man hole cover... just has to be weight...

but the plan it to lighten up from the rear set forward as much as possible and then add it to the rear lol...

might make a wheel stander out of it LOL

Lots of talk about breaking axles, driving a spool on the street...
