Well, the chevy engine I have is pretty much complete. The 302 is just a bare block, so it's gonna take a lot of cash to get it going. But I think you guys are right about the weight issue so maybe I'll stab the chevy for now while I'm building the ford. Thanx for your input guys.

Oh ok. Gotcha. Actually I have access to an aluminum block ford 302. Think I would be better off than using that?

Hey bro, if you are thinking of doing flares, you might be interested in dimlight 65's pics under body and interiors. He put some flares off a dodge omni and they look sweet!

Hey mario, have you checked for a restriction in the exhaust system? Sometimes even a slight restriction will cause a car to overheat on the freeway(high rpm). I ran over a speed bump too fast one time and it partially crimped the pipe in front of the muffler. Sounds like you've covered every other base, so I thought I would throw that in. Good luck.

Thanks alot guys, really appreciate the info. My suspension setup right now is totally delapidated. I honestly think that everything on there is original. So, I'm trying to replace everything, but upgrade at the same time. Well, I guess I'll buy new sway bar and link bushings for the 210 parts and get everything installed. Having said all that, do you think replacing all these parts will keep the 185/70/13 tires from scraping in the front whenever I pull into my driveway? Thanks again for the info.

Does anyone know if a front sway bar off of an 81 B210 will fit my 73 coupe? Would it benefit me? It sure looks thicker than the one I've got. Any info is appreciated.
