In the past week, I buttoned up a few more areas that needed addressing. <\/p>\n
Since the wheels are quite aggressively fit, the middle mounting tab on the fender flares were broken on both sides. This most likely happened when the car was tracked at Thunderhill in the past. I bought a new set of the exact same fender flares and replaced the front pair. <\/p>\n
With the distributor, coil, spark plugs, and spark plug wires changed<\/a>, the only thing that was left was the alternator. Not to make it feel left out, I swapped in a higher amp counterpart. With the stock alternator, the idle would drop severely when the electrical system was loaded, so hopefully the higher amps will help alleviate this to a degree.<\/p>\n
Last but not least… here is the new valve cover installed and sealed to top everything off. <\/p>\n
