Ok heres an up date on my girl ... I totlay eliminated all teh T.O.R.S crap and bought new platinum plugs and it fired first kick ... WHOOHOO .. I took both carbs totaly apart and cleaned them as good as new ..figured while I had it apart i'd clean and paint the pipes and silencers with some ceramic VHT ...retaped all the wiring and siliconed the bottom of the throttle tops where the wiress went in for the T.O.R.S .. looke much better with the pipes silver ceramic..However I want to ride it in the snow so what jets should put in it .. I have a motox shop near by and he has jets and jet kits.. It only took me 3 beers ... GOD I LOVE BEING LAID OFF IN THE WINTER :headbang:

Also, anyone have any silencers forsale ? I want to leave the stock pipes for now .. And can i put dual air cleaners on this and do away with the stock air box ? And would they be ok for trail riding and maybe the occasional trip to the dunes? :cheers:

If you put some pods(dual filters) on it, make sure you get some outerwears also. As for the dunes and trail riding, just try to keep away from any water once you switch over. Also the shee will need to be re-jetted for the pods, so now would be a good time to put them on since your re-jetting anyways. And hurry up and get some pics of the shee and those fords on here, I got a 55 fairlane, a 64 fairlane 500 sports coupe, a 63 falcon, a 49 chevy panel truck, and a 38 ford business coupe. Droppin a 390 into the 55 fairlane, and a 429SCJ into the 64 fairlane and restmod thunderbolt cloning it. :headbang:
