My 3/8 drive Proto socket set. I use that more than anything. But I do more engine work than body work. It's the first set of quality tools I...
I've subscribed. Very good information in here. I've been toying with the idea of a paxton on my mild 460. I think it would be the perfect candidate.
Purchased the Scarebird disc kit a while back and installed it on my 1964 Galaxie. Been stopping like a champ for a couple months now, decided to...
http://www.barnettpinstriping.com/ Jason Barnett is an excellent pinstriper. His style is very symetrical and he is a perfectionist. I have seen...
Welcome to the neighborhood. I'm not to far from Pearland. Keep your eyes peeled for The Burnout Houston, happens October 19 I think at the elks...
In my opinion its a show put on to make money and panders to the hipsters and rockabilly types around the heights. They advertise reserved parking...
8 degrees actually sounds retarded to me. My 460 runs well with 14* initial advance, and that is what many on the 460ford.com forum recommend. If...
I'm not sure where the previous owner got them, but my 1953 Chevy 210 had a 292 in it and the mounts were bolt-ins. Like the others have said,...
I'll second the factory style Trac-Lok with the clutches. It's a good choice for a street car... most of the new trucks these days with posi have...
And this place has a good selection and prices. I'm going to get a posi rearend from them once I save up the dough....
80's ford vans had 31 spline 9" in good ratio's. I got one from an 85 or 86 and it had 3.00 gears but it wasn't a posi.
Brazilian vehichles are weird, the year listed very well could be correct. Remember, they had old style volkswagen beatles up until the 90's. They...
I don't know but that thing is perfect for a hotrod, good find man!
This post reminded me that I have yet to get full coverage on my galaxie, I went with Hagerty, they seem like cool people, and the online...
I have about a 3 inch piece to connect the tank hardline to the pump and an 11 inch piece to connect the hardline comming from the pump to the...
Ha ha ha ha
Damn, put those things on and people would have a hard time noticing the rest of the car. They are definetly attention grabbers. I always...
I've seen them on hilborn setups used inline before the big belt driven fuel pump with AN fittings on them. The four bolt holes around the used to...
How long have you had that? I tried it once but it started to crack and split from the heat and fuel... I didn't varnish mine though, maybe thats...
Just a word of caution, be careful. We were at Thanksgiving one year and my dad was telling everyone how long we were going to be gone on vacation...
I'm in Texas and I got no a/c... so my windows are always down and tint would be useless. I have seen limo tint on old cars and it just looks weird.
My bad
Subject matter must be pre '65
At least it has suction cups so you can wire a quick disconnect and take it off when you park. That thing looks like ass
This is my 1972 Rancho. Doesn't have a title, not sure what I'm gonna do with it. Might sell it so it don't rot.
And the best thing is if you ever get bored with the 292 or it craps out one day, you can put a 350 in it if you find the original V8 mounts from...
The 292 doesn't need much help when you put in highway gears... unless he plans on towing something. They have lots of low end torque to get them...
I would say getting the new ring and pinion installed would be your best bet. I don't think many heavy duty trucks like yours would have ever come...
Who said that? Not me. I said don't assume every car with a closed hood is pepboys equipped.
What is your current bolt pattern? I never heard what the truck year and model was? You can search around for a complete axle that matches your...
