40 | Comments | I think it needs bigger carbs. I had the cash when I built it but I cheaped out. the heads, too. oh, well. still, it's got a lot of ass, especially if i keep the rpm's up. really fun to drive. in the end, that's all i'm looking for.the GEX stuff been holding up so far and i really dog the shit out of it. from what i've read about GEX's products, I must have record mileage on a set of their rebuilt heads. Could have bought new for a hundred bucks more each |
