    Alright guys what clutch do you recommend? Just blew through a cheap one I got from local store. Not a high horsepower application, probabley around 275-280 from a '92 302 with the 3 speed tranny. No offroading, only street use. Itd be even sweeter if you can give the site from which to order...

    Rear Pivot Bushing?

    Saw someone talk about correct torque spec on "rear pivot bushing" when speaking about lift and bushing installation. Not sure exactly what it is. I think they were referring to the bushings on the frame end of the radius arm. Is that right?

    New lift on, itty bitty lean.

    Got the new wildhorses 2.5 inch lift on my U14. Looks great and actually lifted it about 3.5-4 (had v8 sitting on six cylinder springs, it was loooowww). Only problem, leans 1/2 inch from the left to right in the front. Wondering if 1/2 inch is worth trying to redo the radius arms or is it...

One in the very rear right up against the firewall, one about a quarter of the way up, one about 3/4 of the way up, and one that the hood latch mounts into. My Hood doesnt have the one thats about 1/4...
