    Retrosound Radio. YUCK 2/10

    Thats a good idea too, especially for your application. I need something a little more permanent cuz its not uncommon for me to drive the Duster every single day if the weather is nice, and i like to go on long drives and zone out to old tunes. Im just gonna hide a modern radio with bluetooth app.

    4 wheel power disc master cylinder

    Imagine that, a Ford master cylinder when I ordered a kit for a 71 Duster. Lesson Learned. I'm gonna solve this problem come winter. Gutting all this PST stuff and replacing it with a manual brake unit from doctordiff. Cut all the BS.

    Wiper motor LOUD

    I ended up checking online reviews and sure enough there were tons of complaints about this brand of motor being loud as hell. So i returned it and ordered a Cardone one for about 30$ more. Hopefully that sorts the issue.

    Howdy, Ive always run magnum motors in my builds but i recently came into a D150 with a 1979 360 LA motor. What difference in power/economy should i expect assuming i removed all of the Smog accessories from the motor? What i'm really getting at is, Should i still try to find a magnum to...
