Ok kids I had the weekend off so I spent it wrenching on both the bucket and a buddies yota's.  I replaced everything in the exhaust system except the muffler.  The manifold had a broken stud, the heade pipe had one of the pipes broken totally off and the muffler was just sorta on the pipe.  The rear shock mount is back in the game for good now.  The truck drives MUCH better when the front end isnt trying to fall off the truck, I tightened the u-bolts so the u-bolt plates dont rattle anymore. :eek:  I even adjusted the valves and tuned it up.  I finally lowered the float on the webber, adjusted the idle mixture and hooked up the electric  choke.  Adjusted the timing so its way closer to being correct now.  But even after that I think Ive got a burnt valve so on my next weekend off Im gonna pull the head to gain some hp back.
Full hydro, 186:1 with an auto and 44's what could go wrong??
