Red Head

Got that new Redhead installed yesterday & loving it.



Also, had a question about these COP. I have not removed them yet to check plug tightness. I thought most had said OEM were best, but that what came on this one

The COP's are Accel. Look to be in good shape.

I used Denso last time I replaced mine.

Hope your Redhead lasts longer than mine. I think I got 30,000 out of it.
Also, next time you are in there, replace the lower steering shaft with a Borgeson. Metal U-Joint instead of the worn out “rag” joint make the input immediate. Second best upgrade to steering besides the box.

Mine is going on 12k miles, doing great. But I also try not to strain it by turning the wheels while at a dead stop, specially with the larger tires.
