You know what. A really cool guy picked this up for me, went through it, and gave me a smokin' deal on it. I'm going to bolt it on my motor and...
So ... not so lucky. Burned again.
This Carter built Q-jet reads #17059216. 170 (1976 up) 59 (1979) 2 (49 state) 1 ( chev) 6 (automatic) Is this correct? This carb appears brand...
Went with the Q-jet. Thanks again.
O.K. I see what you mean. The intake is a 1970 unit for a Q-jet. I see how it doesn't line up. The Edelbrock Performer is a match for the...
Well ,Badshifter, we meet again. You got a little heated recently when I posted a pic of my (Cutlass) donor car. That is my" B competition coupe"...
Anybody? I have heard these are a real bitch to setup. The guy I got it off of will be happy to give me my money back (he's an excellent friend)....
I picked up this intake manifold and carb today from a friend of mine. Let's just say the price was right.The cast iron intake is#3965577 and the...
Right on. It's an inexpensive way to get into the hobby. I watched the supercharged gasser series run last weekend. A Willy's coupe set a track...
http://www.drwtransmission.com/thm_200C.htm Mine is the THM 200. The THM 200c had the lockup converter and the bad reputation from what I...
Thanks, I think I'll pop $23.00 for the shift kit. It moved the 3300 lb. Cutlass along pretty good, so It should work on my 1500 lb. rod alright.
I bought a '78 Cutlass donor car for my rod project. It was a decent runner with a 305/ automatic ( which I assumed was t.h. 350 when I bought it...
Indeed. I make it up as I go. I post pics so you guys can tell me when I f--k up. I'm not good but I'm slow. J.T.
[IMG] You might recognize this car. The inspiration. The wishbones will move outboard (just clamped and temp. brackets), The rad will be rear...
[IMG] [IMG] [IMG] 35 days in a row and here it is. First car build and loving it. Thanks for all the help.
Good advice guys. Thanks for not calling me an idiot.
Poorly! I guess thats why its only tacked. If the plate was mounted to a Heim joint where it attatches to the housing it would work?
[IMG] This triangulated panhard should control the pinion angle somewhat? Time will tell. Jeff.
That was my take on it. I overthink things sometimes. Thanks for your help. Jeff.
I wanted to get some advice on this rear setup I'm building. Do you think I need a shackle on the leaf spring at the rear bracket? I thought with...
Thanks for the welcome. There are so many talented people here. This is the best hot rod site on the web. period.
Hi, I want to start by saying congrats to Boston. Seems things got a little out of hand around here last night. I live about 30 minutes east of...
