This link should cover everything you need to know/do regarding what you're trying to achieve. If you already have outside mics in the correct...
Cool! Let us know what you find. Off the top of my head, I can only think of three routes to El Mirage from the LA area. The 14, the 2, or the 15...
If you REALLY want to be accurate with your route, I'd spend some time at a local LA library and find a couple maps of that era. That will tell...
Like others have said, ID your LS3 and get a factory ECU that matches it. When you're done, find a dyno shop in your area that can tune it and...
I wonder how such an arrangement would actually handle on the street...
You mean the Frunk? :D
He stated the goal is AMBR, not racing. Space is gonna be tight putting that engine in front of the rearend and having sufficient room for the...
My '30 coupe before I sold it. Ford '35 wires with Excelsior rubber; 6.00x16s and 7.00x16s. [IMG] [IMG]
Wellllll, that got weird quickly. LOL The trouble of fitting a Vega box wouldn't be worth it to me, I'd simply use a 2-tooth Model A box and...
Halibrand had disc brake setups on most Indy cars starting in the mid-50s onwards. Here's an odd setup from a Petersen Publishing outtake...
It's a special place to be sure...
Wow! That's cool!
The temp sender in the head is right next to the exhaust so it will tend to read hotter than a sending unit on top of the intake. Also, the head...
Not much to add that others haven't already pointed out, but those stampings to the left of the 6 24o look similar to USAC inspection stamps I've...
If you're truly concerned with it, throw the Plasti-gage in the garbage and get the right tools to measure the clearance. The mics you mentioned...
Those holes will cause a lean condition until fixed. You effectively have a pretty serious vacuum leak. Fix that first. Then, deck all the mating...
Simply put, as far as this forum is concerned, they didn't exist. For example, if you're building a '40s-era roadster, you'd use a "Year of...
*picks Mic up off floor. Yes, but if only for the work of C & T Automotive who figured out how to get those heads to work reliably and worked out...
West out of Bakersfield, through San Luis Obispo and then south through Santa Barbara and onward to Santa Monica is a pretty great drive. After...
You can do them yourself, depending upon your patience and ability. Emulsion tubes have been mentioned, but other areas to address is shaft wear...
If weight is a concern, do them in Mag like Halibrand did. :cool:
Ford thought so. A 'B' carb has a venturi size of 0.866-inch ID versus the 'A's 0.846-inch.
I'll add a couple just for fun... Tom Beatty Chuck Potvin / Bill Jenks Ron Main Ron Ceridono... hell, he wrote the book! :D
True Moon discs are held on via Dzus buttons. At least those that will pass tech. ;)
Personally, I would never attempt a late model chassis swap under an old car/truck. With the availability in today's aftermarket, there are so...
Are you gonna take a piss or leave a piss? Or are you simply taking the piss?! When referring to a cam, 3/4 was simply a milder grind in...
I take the same approach when wiring a car and that was what I was trying to say regarding grounds. Think of the ground circuit as just that,...
True, but I have yet to be told to attach anything directly to the alternator as opposed to the battery. I don't like relying on sheetmetal or...
That electric fan is going to pull more amps than both headlights operating in both high AND low modes at the same time (if that was possible)....
There is a TON of work into going this route versus upgrading the manual box to a power unit such as a Borgeson box. For starters, the stock...
