Irmo73's Build - Irmo73 - 12-14-2011
Drove it home tonite
Mainly concentrating on driving with the new front discs
Feels VERY weird but I've heard there's a break in period with new disc brakes
Will post pics of the engine tomorrow
EDIT: I moved this to it's own thread,Chuck

thats awesome ya got to drive it...as for disc, no real "breakin period"...its more like seating your brake pads. so that the pads start doing what they are designed to do.
couple easy to moderate braking, then follow up with lil more/harder braking each time....of coarse letting it completely cool be tween hard braking. thats what ya generally do.

not getting consistent electricity to gauge, radio, and engine

thanks!
hopefully something simple like a ground or fuse
will let you know after Ive had a chance to look closer
Irmo73's Build - Irmo73 - 12-14-2011
Well it's simple alright
My old 60 amp alternator couldn't juice the new halogens, radio, and interior lights driving in this morning at 530
Hopefully have a new one tomorrow
