  • what exhaust do you have on that?

  • Racing beat header and presilencer into a cheapo Advance Auto Parts Walker brand muffler. The Racing Beat parts were top quality and the Advance muffler came with a lifetime warranty, so I wasn't too concerned about its life expectancy. It actually held up really well to the heat of the rotary.

  • how much did it cost for the disk brake swap?

  • I didn't do a disc brake swap. The 1985 GS came with front disc and rear drum brakes standard. If you move up to a GSL or GSL-SE rear end then you will get rear disc brakes as well as a LSD. The GS trim level had an open diff and rear drum brakes though.

  • what do you mean clean it properly or what would be the proper way of cleaning it.?

  • Clean it with mineral spirits, or paint thinner. Just make sure you get all the oils off the dash.
