Looking to customize a 81 ss440. Want to change skid and suspension, 136 track, exhaust, bar riser, different clutch, possibly a tunnel extension. just dont have experience with sled parts. looking for what skid, clutch, exhaust, suspension would work best on the old girl. have references from pics of another sled, he used phaser skid, fx shock, comet adjustable primary clutch, aaen pipe. wondering if thats a good set up or if there is something better? input much needed and appreciated! here is pics of buddies sled.

Gonna depend if theres a budget or if this is just a project and price is not really in effect. That will make the options on parts availability and need for creativity.

Good long lasting sleds when you rebuild.
I have a 1982 with 2100km all stock.

Fun old sled - but a back killer by end of day!

I have an 84, pretty good shade except for the seat.
