I've been a little short on free time lately so I've been getting some work done at Octagon Motors; I got the front rotors and U-joints replaced. Turns out one of the hubs and the front yoke of the propshaft were worn badly, so I got those replaced with used parts. I also had the carbs rebuilt, with some work done to the throttle plate area and oversize shafts put in. I knew there were air leak problems because I could never synchronize them properly, and I was having trouble getting through AirCare this year. The result has been great: no pedal modulation under heavy braking, no wheel shake down the highway at high speed (although I can still feel a bit of shaking from the rear end, which will be solved once I complete the bolt-on wheel conversion and rebuild), and I passed AirCare with flying colours. There seems to be more power and the engine runs a lot smoother, too.
