I didn't know you had a Testarossa.
I had a girlfriend like that in the late 90's.

my first real, reliable, vehicle was an 89 amigo with that same 2.6L
valve adjustments every 15k and timing belt/water pump every 60
I loved that little truck tho, it got rear shackles and a t bar crank for lift of like 2" and an aussie locker in the rear, don't think you can get the locker anymore, or much of anything for em now.
Big part of why I moved on to fords and nissans

Plenty of parts out there, you just have to get creative sometimes.

if you haven't already, and if he's still around, Jerry Lemond is the man, Ron Strub, they have tons of parts, moved ron's low rider magazine isuzu pup from dallas to north carolina for new years 2022
Jerry is still around but has slowed down a bit. I'm on the wait-list for one of his cams

Those Toyota headlights are a great upgrade, many of the TJ Wrangler guys go that route. Lookin' good. Man that thing is clean.

I'm currently gathering everything needed to put a Weber 32/36 on it.
Got some stuff
Same as on my 1984, installed a Weber 7 or 8 years ago. Mine has a Hitachi carb which I can't rebuilt due to rebuilt kits no longer available. Be careful ordering online, there are fake Webers around
Planning on ordering a new one from Redline.
A coworker who is an old circle track guy recommended a Holley 350. Probably a nice carb but not sure what I'd do for an adapter.
Now what?
Clearly a bigger one is needed.
Not sure what you are trying to remove, but time to pull off the vehicle and find a press?
RH lower ball joint is being very stubborn.
