Brake Rebuild / Engine Tune up

rebuilt the factory calipers and also got the hard lines and some Stainless flexible lines while I was at it. Master cylinder is still good and got the brakes good enough to drive down the street.



Then I found the issue with the engine:
1) Factory CDI box was bad. Replaced with MSD STREEFIRE igntion CDi box. Not only is it the cheapest one they make, it FITS the stock panel perfectly and also has an integrated selectable (every 100 rpm) rev limiter. This is a very nice unit for the money and IMO can't be beat for simple upgrade over factory.
2) Distributor was one tooth off (couldn't get the timing in without moving it!). Got it going and blammo...driving down street!
3) Up next will be Pertronix digital igntion to replace points.

SO it runs GREAT! PICTURES HERE
