I just replaced the fuel system on a car I just inherited. It has a 327 and a Rochester 4G carb. I got rebuild kit and rebuilt the Rochester 4G...
Thanks guys
Thanks for the suggestion guys. I don't really care for it to have a super shine, but it looks oxidized and looks bad enough to be an eyesore. I...
I have an engine accessory (compressor) that's aluminum. I didn't clear coat it and now it has dulled quite a bit. Has anyone polished something...
Does anyone know if the old Edelbrock SP 2P intake is a spreadbore or squarebore and if it only fits with the points distributor or if it will...
Because the car this applies to is off topic, but the information and question asked can be universally applied. I have found this website to be...
Hello, I need to change my pinion angle. I need to raise the pinion up between 3 and 4 degrees. My car has coil springs in the rear. I’m not...
Thanks guys. Whoops, LS stands for Listfully Stupid.
Hello all, I used a Griffin radiator for my LS Swap. My first one started leaking between the core and tank. Summit, who has always been great...
Does anyone know the difference between the 3m 08509 and 08609 sealer? I need to seal a heater box to a fire wall. Everything I am reading...
I am not exaggerating, this is one of my favorite things on the internet, and has been for several years.
Thanks for the responses. We changed the filter today (the old style filter that mounts in the housing on the carb). This seems to have fixed...
Hello all, My dad has had '61 Corvette with a 327 for many years. The fuel pump was leaking so I put a new one on it. The car sat for a couple...
That is a good idea. I can hook the horn up to the hot wire on the horn wire and then use a jumper wire to ground the other side. If it works I...
I have a 1931 Chevrolet that is all stock except a 6 volt alternator and LED taillight. I have restored an original pancake horn. The horn works...
Thanks for the responses. What has confused me is that those other units seem to have the outlets clocked at a different position than what we...

Hello, My dad's '61 Corvette has a 327. From the numbers on the block, it appears to be a mid 60's 327. We know very little about the fuel pump...
Are 235s from '57 internally or externally balanced? I'm going to try to remove the clutch and pressure plate first. If that continues, I'd like...
Thanks for all the replies. My best guess is that this must be a replacement key because I looked the thing over on both sides with a magnifying...
I got the magnifying glass out and there is zero evidence that there were ever FORD letters in this, however I also have a set of keys to a 78...
Thanks for the reply. I forgot to mention that there is an H on the other side of the key where the side pictured says USA. I'm curious if the F...
My friend has had this key since he was a kid. Always a car guy, he found it in a thrift shop as a small kid and had to have it. He's always...
Thanks for the replies. I'd never really thought about the bolt filling the space and only being offset like that before, but that makes sense....
I'd appreciate any help: Car: 235 6 cylinder, factory 3 speed overdrive, front harmonic balancer has been drilled and taped w/crank to accept a...
Yeah, I stopped by the shop today and asked him and he said core prices had gone up quite a bit. By the time labor and core prices are included...
I'm looking for a radiator core to fit in a 1931 chevrolet. It doesn't have to be the original honey comb design. The measurements of the old...
From the suggestions from this thread I have definitely narrowed down the search to 46-48s. Thanks to everyone for the advice, at least now I...
This is the picture I was actually looking for earlier but I couldn't find it at the time... [IMG]
For me, keeping it original is a big part of what I enjoy, to a degree. I don't mind disc brakes, and I also typically install LED taillights...
