I would look into get them high temp coated. I know some powdecoaters that will do the job for you. Its the same paint they use on car exhaust headers.
Need an EXCELLENT condition flywheel that does not sound like it has sand in it, because mine is busted. I need one for this weekends ride.
Please PM me prices including shipping to NJ. Thanks
If you get the hipers go with Beadlock so you can run low tires pressure without blowing the tire off the rim. Pluse the Tech 3 Hipers are 3 piece wheel. They cost a few bucks but worth it in the long run.
Sounds like you bought some parts from Minikia on ebay and got junk. I have a set of stock shocks in good condition that I will sale you for $50 shipped let me know if you want them.
