Also, what size are the torque thrusts? The stance is perfect on your drop.

Vacuum line? I think you're on to something there. I need to figure out where that is because when I was reaching around underneath to clean the vent there was a rubber hose that I pulled out of the way a bit to get some more clearance.Let me see if I can find a diagram of that. Thank you for shooting me that way.


Agreed on the needle adjustment. Should be super easy.

HOWEVER... like all projects when I took off the cover I ran into some broken pieces that I need to replace to make it work.

Sidenote - So I read alot of these build threads and so many of them start off the same way.

Simple build, don't plan on getting crazy with it etc etc.

Then you go through about 10 pages and it's a frame off rebuild because people can't help but getting carried away.

I feel that. Really trying to keep this an every day garage mechanic KISS build. But we will see.
