**73 Scamp Mini Pro-Street Engine Swap**

Yes, I have burned up some fuel. Car runs good and goes straight. The coil overs and ladder bars ride HELLAA better than leaf springs. Nice and smooth. All of the Hype of a solid mounted ladder bar & Spool while on the street is total HORSESHIT is all I can say about that. There are no negatives so far at all.... Even while off camber turning into a driveway. It does not do any of the things that all the NAY sayers talk about. Another MYTH Busted is how I feel about that. The exhaust system is pretty damn loud when stomping on the throttle. It seems to quite down on a JUICE blast. Not as Pitchy.

The 4.30 Gears don't seem too radical either. I am going to gauge RPM with my GPS and see what my MPH is on the FWY.

One thing that I would like to do is add power steering. I was thinking about it even before I installed the new rear end. That could roll into the same thing as the rear end did..... New K Frame etc with a Power Rack on the menu?? Damn.........

There is a local "all car" cruise in tonight at 8pm. Going to possibly head over there and check it out.

Glad to hear about the spool. I've been on the fence about changing mine.

I've been using my gps for some time now as my speedo. Works nice. 410 gears, 29.5 inch tall tires. I'm running about 2800-3000 at 55mph.
