Thanks! I was about to buy them in black too but decided to give it a shot. I´m pretty happy with the results.

Fixed a small coolant leak and took it around the block. Runs extremely rich. Will be detailed after i seal up the head lights.

One of my mufflers fell off so I'm looking for a new set. I might try to take the other one off later today.

Finished installing new alternator and a freshly rebuilt PSP. I'm having trouble bleeding the system. I lubed the pump pretty good as it was reassembled but I'm worried about running the pump to long and toasting it before all of the air is out. If anybody has any advice/tips would be greatly appreciated.

There's a left and a right? I thought it was just one whole gasket! And as long as it's not a blown head gasket I'm not going to worry that much

Edit: Nvm one for intake and one for exhaust! I haven't really looked at it closely on the right side but the left side I see oil leaking.
