    Gs850 + boost?

    well...if y'all have a good amount of experience futzin with turbo cars....why deal with carbs then? go EFI and custom manifolds and stuff....at least then you can control fuel and timing and be able to dial it in easier.

    oh...btw...if you don't have a fuel sender in your gas tank and want that fuel level gauge to stop blinking...just connect the fuel sensor wire on the gauge to ground....if that doesn't work...you connect the fuel sensor wire to a resistor (forgot the value) and then to ground.

    Preserving bare steel?

    Mmm....you could try using boiled linseed oil (you can pick up at a hardware store) to help preserve the finish. Do a search on it on the web...seems lots of people use it to preserve the patina on their ratrods and whatnot. Don't get regular linseed oil....it has to be "boiled linseed oil".

    Potential Group Purchase - Wiseco GS650 741cc pistons

    I'm ready for a set of pistons and headgasket. I was just looking at gasketstogo.com's site. I'm doublestacking mls headgaskets on my '78 2L 16v turbo rabbit, but have been thinkin of going with a more robust gasket setup. so far it is working so i'm more or less leaving it alone.
