Wow. I've lived in Oregon all my life, and haven't even been to Lake County.
With that in mind, I'm a pontiac nut too, so maybe one of the old 4 cylinder half a 389 motors would be a better choice. I have a single ram air...
So that would be a pumpkin that bolts into a 9" housing, but takes 12 bolt gears & carrier? The 12 bolt has a higher pinion than the 9". Thats a...
I've read enough posts to convince myself that I NEED one. I'm writing riceman for a set of plans next. But I have a couple of questions I need...
Charma.... you never should'a dissed Oregon :) Glad ya got it fixed.
If your using the white Mr Gasket style, soak them. Or at least it worked for me all these years. The better ones don't need it, but those white...
Heat gun and a putty knife. You'll be amazed at how well it works.
Use a heat gun, and a scraper. Works quick, and doesn't make a big mess.
I'd add a high volume oil pump. The extra flow will help mask the problem.
I hope you find something consistent to calibrate to. I would question the accuracy of the Hilborn nozzels though. I have flowed my set, and they...
At work we rate past engineers by how long drawings with their initials are used after they are gone. C9 would be one of the greats.
Yup, I'm a belt and suspenders kind of guy myself. Nobody goes under a car in my garage until they have tried to pudh it off the jackstands....
not even close... My brother started a Model A Pickup back in the early 60's. They had it running but not freally inished until he wrecked it in...
I have narrowed down my search to two Pfaff's. Both are reconditioned by a reputable local shop. Both come with a 1 year gaurantee. The first is a...
Don't remember what I came home in, but I brought my daughter home in a '67 GTO. She was in her first street race at 14 days old.
You need to ditch the tank, and the halibrands too.. you can send them to me, and I'll make sure they are disposed of properly :) Ya gotta post...
you could send them to me, and I'd tell you which they were :) Actually the hinges are different, and aren't the inside lower door formings...
Cool.. just spent the weekend with my boy working on his Quarter Midget. Just wish I coulda had one myself as a kid.
I got a set of lower door patch panels from them over a year ago. No complaints on my part. They came in as timley a fashion as any other...
My dad put a 292 in his '65 chev pickup when I was a kid. That thing would haul ass.
Here's mine. Got it from my Grandma. It was my highschool ride for dates :). Raced the GTO, but this was for cruzing. Been to the drive in, prom,...
We get a lot of side by side racing. The light weight is the key. There is enough torque if you keep them lite. As for the tires, you can hang the...
I don't have the whole solution, but... We have a class here (In Oregon) that is a limited late model sorta deal. We run 4 cylinder late models....
Dang that thing looks good even without the body.
Any more pics of the pickup?
I keep tellin the wife that's what I would do if she ever left. She says it would make me too happy, so she's staying. :(
Count me in for four. Eric
The wife got me a hotplate for Christmas so I quit boiling car parts in the house... Last night I got the daughter to sneak some starter parts...
I have 4 wheel manual disks on my daily driver '65 Corvair. The biggest thing is balancing the master cylinder to the calipers. Mine uses '85...
Never had my license, but I've taken the stick a bit with a buddy who has his, in an old T-craft. Eric
