Re: Green Beater

tried to fix my speedometer problem this weekend by buying a used 30 buck 1980 100mph speedo but turns out it don't really work. don't think the seller intentionally sold me a bad one was just in his shed to long. i took alot of pictures but am not going to post them as the project was a flop.


i did also pull my passenger side header as it had blown the gasket at the center ports again. a little grinding on the outer edges of the center ports and some checking with a straight edge was my quick fix. so far so good. put 50 miles on it yesterday and no signs of leaking. seated the gaskets same as always with a heat cycle and a retorque. time will tell.

while i had the header off i rerouted some of the wiring and cleaned up the appearance on passenger side also.
