Re: brake upgrade
I am very happy with my Rebuilt Standard calipers with a half decent set of pads and slotted and dimpled rotors. they put up with a fair bit of abuse before they fade. https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpf1/v/t1.0-9/1235042_10152103633288517_8754695123013486261_n.jpg?oh=78a55da491297...

Re: VGJONO's 1976 GD Galant Daily
all rust is repairable given the right amount of effort is applied :) Turns out my knock was not in the rear end but was a flogged out gearbox mount allowing the gearbox to move around and hit things :thumpsup: https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xap1/v/t1.0-9/10440837_1015249660896851...

Re: VGJONO's 1976 GD Galant Daily
Bolted it up to one of the other galants i have out the back to see if it would fit, turns out almost, just one small problem with the dipstick tube/dipstick clearing the dump pipe. This will be fixed by cutting the dipstick tube down, then cutting down a dipstick to match and re-marking it. https:/...

Using Penrite 15-60 fully synthetic, and went out today and started it, seems to have stopped, tappet noise is there but not as bad as i thought it was yesterday, my theory is i was driving the car differently yesterday making it more noticeable, however i will still be checking over the rocker gear...

once again i have a silly question, but pretty much after a fair few goes at doing my tappet spacing there is no stopping the tappet noise. it may get quieter but always comes back pretty quickly, ive got a hunch that the rocker shafts may be worn and its been sugested to replace them, but honestly ...
