Thanks everyone. Also should have updated that fixed the rocker shaft by putting a new one in and torqued to 200 inch lbs. Hopefully all is well now..

My sons talked me into putting center caps today. Thoughts?

The point on the bottom of the crest should point to the valve stem.

I have never heard of a color tune. Watched a quick YouTube. Is this only used for idle settings?

Would be interested if you would be willing to do a YouTube video on how you used it on your six.

I first heard about it from performance oriented. That is what is suggested. Once I get around to doing it I might do a youtube.

Well first semi big mishap. Driving down the road and I see my new windshield trim fly up in the air. Got home with it bent but able to bend back into shape and see that all the windshield clips cracked and broken now.. so now some 3m window weld in a few spots. So disappointing. Should have bought factory ones

Fortunately you did not lose the trim. Things happen when you drive them - I know. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Oh man. I feel for you. That sucks. I'm glad there wasn't any collateral damage. I'm glad I threw my bag of windshield clips in the trash and bought factory, but only because I was lucky to be warmed by someone here on the World. I honestly don't even know why there is an aftermarket version of those clips. The factory ones are not expensive. Thank goodness for 3M adhesives. My trim was held on with 3M weatherstrip adhesive for years before the restoration.
