Ahhh I did already replace that bushing, the old one was broken. I also got a new rubber washer to seal it and greased it up before reinstalling....
Thanks for the replies guys. I don't think the pedal is binding, it only takes slight pressure to pull it back up when it sticks. Also I replaced...

Yup. Couldn't decide on paint anyway and I love the look of cast iron. Will be attempting to smooth the rattle lines a bit but not too much...
Heat is for the door strip only to help soften. Don't think it would work on the vent rubber. Hope to try this by the weekend.

Hey guys, I need some suggestions for the 3 bolt holes on the edelbrock 3x2 Intake manifold that go nowhere. The holes are just through the...
Can somebody tell me what fitting to use to plug this? I got one that was the same size but the threads didn't fit. Please help save some hair,...
That's great kennkat! That's what I was looking for, so all mounting hardware does come with the shifter. When I looked at them online all I saw...

Vergil, I actually meant to put the PCV into the draft tube hole and run the hose from the top of the PCV to the cap on the fuel pump hole. Just...
Well, I guess this clears it up.... Thank you for your versions guys. I guess I'm going to have to decide on either a drilled port into the...
Ok, I've searched and read so many different threads on adding PCV to flathead engines I'm thoroughly confused. I have a 49 Mercury flathead...
