It would look great with a short spoiler in the rear, some nice 17's with 275's out back and 245's up front. But I know where you are with not wanting to spend money. As for exhaust, check out www.Pypesexhaust.com for some decent options.

Tall spoiler > short spoiler

besides, the short one was only put on early 70 1/2 cars, after that it was tall or nothing. You can thank Trans Am racing for that 8)

let me know when. it might need a rebuild, as the seals and what-not are probably as old as the car. i've got that nice new vacuum/fuel pressure gauge, too.

i have one of those on the '87. if it sat one whole season with no gas in the carb, the seals can shrink and not perform like they should.

you didn't say what the symptoms were.

No real problems I guess, I just dont know what it would sound like if there were problems. No one seemed to hear anything the other night, and if they did, they didnt say anything.

BTW, the OTHER new car arrived yesterday. 1981 Ford Brrrrrrronco. This is THE truck of trucks. Its bad ass...Ill have to take pictures asap.
