    Hack -- how did you do your front suspension? I'm planning on completely revamping my 70 as well.

    Site looks pretty good; can't wait for it to go live. If you need any help, let me know. I'm a "professional" copywriter and am willing to work for parts. :D

    Just put an AEM Air / Fuel guage in my 65

    Would a crappy A/F gauge be adequate just for tuning the carb? I don't really plan on FI or nitrous...I'd just like an easy way to determine if I'm running rich or lean. I don't have enough experience to sniff out the differences in my exhaust. :D

    So a normal A/F gauge only reads at idle? Would you mind PMing me that link so I can take a looksie? Thanks for your help.

    What's the difference between wideband and regular? Is the wideband worth the extra few hundred dollars?

    There's a group buy for rollerized spring perches on VMF right now. $157 shipped. I asked a similar question a few weeks ago and I think I'm going to go with PST polygraphite bushings. www.p-s-t.com good luck

    Yellow brick road to a great Suspension

    BobV -- thanks for the link. That's some great info. What do you guys think about the PST front end and super front end kits? Is the super kit worth the extra $340? Should I just stick with getting the polygraphite bushings from PST and the rest of the parts elsewhere? I've decided to just...

    Aside from buying a new R&P, what steps can I take to tighten up the steering? Right now I have about 2" of dead play on my steering wheel and the steering is so loose I could steer with my pinky finger if I wanted. Where should I start? Flaming River steering box? (What does a steering box do...

    Another New Guy with some questions

    Hey Dan, I'm also a "new guy" and from the advice I've gotten I think the most important thing is to buy the best you can afford because restoring will cost more than you think it will. If you want a fastback or a vert that will cost you a lot of $$$, coupes quite a bit less. I had no...

    Yellow brick road to a great Suspension

    I did a quick read through and it is VERY helpful. I can't tell you enough how great it is to have an overview like that instead of learning everything piece by piece. I suggest you put a link to it in your sig so other noobs like myself can benefit. :nice: I plan on reading it more carefully...

    Yellow brick road to a great Suspension

    I have another question... Right now there is a group purchase for "rollerized" perches at VMF. See here Is it worth it to get roller perches but still use OEM arms? On the same note, is it worth it to get new bushings but still use OEM arms?

    Yellow brick road to a great Suspension

    Wow...lots of great advice here. DarkBuddha, can't wait to sit down and read your write-up. (And re-read it again, I'm sure). Here's a follow-up question...I know R&P steering is over $1k, but those are all manual steering systems, right? Are there any power R&P systems that will fit without...
