Went to Pomona for the Finals few weeks back and I thought this is worth a mention.... I remember in the 70's Gordie Bonin ran 240 mph and had the...
I remember seeing it 30+ years ago on the Universal studios tour. It was parked in the back lot with other movie cars.
Dent side or Bullnose Ford Pickups. A short bed being the more desirable in either 2 or 4 wheel drive.
That’s my other method. I crack the bleeder, then push the pedal down with a piece 2x2 and jam it on front of the seat to hold it down. Yes, lots...
The brake line just have to be lower than the MC, so about two feet or so in height from the MC to the wheel cylinders. It's amateur not armature.

The V-8 swap would be the most difficult, but the end result the most fun. The 4-bolt front and rear would need to be changed. With the right...

Largest practical size is 235 70 15 on a 7” steel wheel on the rear and 235 70 15 on front on a 6” steel wheel. I had my housing narrowed 5/8” and...
Have you tried rotating the axle when it’s installed? To line up the side gear and the splined plate? If the axle is too long it could be...
Sure it’s MSD and not a cheap knockoff? Pro Comp comes to mind.
Cut .250 off the one that’s too long and you’re done. I guess I could add this what I did with my Dutchman axles after I had the housing narrowed...
