Forgot to mention the improvement in braking. Before the brake upgrade it was a little sketchy stopping. At that time I probably didn't have functioning rear brakes though. The brake performance after the upgrades and the hydro boost conversion was astonishingly better. It stops way better than I thought was possible with drum brakes.

I can list out all the parts if anyone needs them. Many of the parts were researched on the zone. Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the content. I have definitely benefited.
