yeah, I'd agree there. Funny thing is my dad is one of those car freaks that have been car freaks since flatheads were popular. He rode in my car the other day, and told me that I need new shocks, and that the struts are starting to go.. WTF???? I can't tell. Oh well, time to upgrade my "soft-ride" suspension to something even better than an iroc or ws6 suspension. i think new shocks, struts, and 2" dropped spindles are in order. and it's only a 72,XXX mile car.

You extrude-honed the exhaust manifolds yourself? Do you work in a machine shop or something?
