I have pretty much the same setup as you and I'm just running stock autolite plugs. Unless you start getting crazy with the cam the stock plugs...
I wire wheeled mine and rolled it with black rustoleum. The way I see it, it wasn't coated before and lasted this long, and it's not going to be...

I have a 4 bolt single groove pulley that is powdercoated gloss black. I'd be willing to sell it. pm if anyone wants it.
I'm using the same kit as he has and it uses ford granada spindles and disc brakes, along with balljoints. They aren't really drop spindles, but...

I need to make it out there one weekend. Is there something going on every weekend?
I have a maverick rearend which is supposed to be about 56" (1 inch shorter than the stock one). I'm running some later 15x6" steel wheels that...
Sweet Jebus, it looks like a metal throne in the back. You gonna throw some pads on those things for the kiddies, lol.
You actually tightened 77 of those things?!!! I would have stopped at about 5. I buy my bolts from a little local hardware store. I'd rather...

Matt, The engine is on a stand so I have all the room in the world to pull it off. I'll check to see if my local autp parts store rents the...
How hard is it to pull off the balancer that is on there and replace it with a slimmer 3 bolt one? I'm thinking if it isn't too difficult that...
At this point I don't care if I have to spend another hundred dollars or so I just want the damn thing to work!!
