    Installed Headman 88400 Headers without any issues whatsoever.
    With the full length headers, I had too many issues. These are much better more the Maverick in my experience.
    Also got the Lokar C4 Column Shifter Installed.
    Next, Lokar Throttle Cable and Kick Down Cables.

    I guess taste changes with age. I love factory steering wheels now, used to hate them. Nice wheel Don.

    I originally went with full length headers (so I bought the Lokar Shift Rod Kit) but ran into too many issues with the headers. Decided to stick with the Lokar stuff. Looks better than OEM!

    Put the last two of eight mounting bolts for TOPORANGER'S monte carlo bar in my Comet. I love how the bar really tightened up the feel of the car!
