Good week for the Cuda!!!
« on: January 26, 2008 - 01:48:11 PM »
I'm pretty excited this week!!! First of the week I installed a new Grant "tuff" wheel which turned out awesome. I already had a factory Tuff wheel and from what I was reading it looked like I was going to have to modify the horn ring to make the new button fit. As it tuned out everything fit together perfect with no modifications! The entire project took literally 5 minutes. The biggest thing thought is that I ordered my new TTI full exhaust with polished step tube headers and 3" exhaust with an X pipe and valance tips. I was sick looking at the rusted Hedman header bolted to a crappy 2 1/4 exhaust. Can't wait till my new stuff gets here!!
