nocutt, when I move back to Cali, we need to hook up.    I'd just be interested in a first hand look at this monster.

The universal MSD's that you have to cut to length?  I had soem of those and they didn't last very long.  They are very difficult to make properly.  It took me 8 tryies to get 6 wires and I wasn't very happy with how they came out.  I was much younger when I made them however.  I might be better now.

....I want your brakes.... tell me how ... point at parts...  drool

I know they aren't exactly the same but I just pul Accel "Super Stock" 8mm cut to length wires on the TGP and it was rather easy.  However, the back three wires were barely long enough that is the biggest problem.  They went right on otherwise and quite easy to make.

Bone,
        Yeah right   ...my lazy @ss keeps saying I would do it...but for sure this time, I am plan on designing the rear coilovers sometime before the month runs out I will also include handbrakes...I am thinking of using one of those remote ol' school handbrakes...

Wow, everything is looking great as usual.  I feel like a bum to not really have much to contribute.  But it's like Scott said, "point at parts...   drool."  Very nice work nocutt!  You never fail to impress
