703s are picked clean by a vendor in the baltimore area...
I dont have the timeframe to pull off a hitch... most of my time is gonna be axleshafts and a master cylinder upgrade... maybe if pulltab is up for it.
As far as the alignment... by changing anything dealing with your suspension, you are changing multiple different areas of measure...
Moral of the story, google it. Then when you try and need help with something other than a vague statement of "my tires lean", then come to us.
Phew

What he said, as long as there's no knocks, taps, pings just keep running her until she does. If you wanna rebuild an engine you can get a long block from CR for $185. Rebuild it in your spare time and when your engine gives up you'll have a fresh one to drop in.
