I am slowly making progress. Hobbling around on crutches and the heat has me moving at a pretty slow pace. I am going Friday to pick up some carb parts and look at an 800 & 850 DP for pretty cheap. I was hoping to run the tubular exhaust manifolds, but they are too close to the frame and fuel lines, so I will be swapping in a set of Hooker full length super comps. Oh well, I do like the sound of headers, just not the headaches that come with them. I will start on the wiring tomorrow and get the alternator and starter mounted, along with the pulleys.
