Hi folks ...

The driving of my fresh BJ8 has been fun this summer ..  but ...  I am
getting antzy and am trying to plan projects for this winter (can't wait) ..
on tap ..

1. fix my front main seal once and for all ... and likely add a DW aluminum
sump at the same time ... anyone used the DW sump ?  Am also going to add a
DW oil pump .... also looking into a PCV valve setup David Nock threw past
me one day in conversation ....

2. Am considering adding DW headers and 2 inch pipes ..  keeping my SUs ..
I would love feedback from anyone who has done this  .. also feedback on
keeping my SUs with the headers ...

3. will be adding my mike Lempert diff gears ....

4. am plannng a remote cd changer ...  I have gone back and forth between
under the dash behind the console or in the boot but still have not decided
...

5. am contriving a brace system of my own to stiffen up the scuttle .....

6. new throttle shaffts for my carbs ... although I thought they were pretty
good my slow idle adjustment is just not as advertised ...

7. Cold air box

Thoughts on any of these would be welcome ...

Cheers.
