Yes 1.6 roller tip on the gold one and this one has 1.6 roller top too but for a sbc. You have to use the proper nuts for a 2.8-3.1-3.4 though when you do this.

EDIT, passed on this idea and stuck with the stock wing.

Going with the Dodge Shadow spoiler, what do you think? (just test fitted). This has been done before I love the look of it.

I was pleasantly surprised at how little rust this car has considering that it has 350,000 km (218,750 miles) on it! the rear trunk is clean, frame rails are decent and the undercarriage is solid. only things needing replacement are the floor drain plugs (bought Rodneys replacement plugs) and the lower rad support (found a good used one).

I do have new brake lines and im contemplating just replacing them all while im at it.

A little more work done today. Doesn’t seem like much but when you have to sandblast and pair rad parts it takes time! New rad housing new braces new washer and rad overflow tanks.
