We're past that buddy, but thanks.
Caution, long winded post with full recap of entire thread. Ok, so I know this post has been a bit of shit show and for my part I am sorry. But...
Oh yeah, considering you didn't read the post, didn't use any deductive reasoning that a post of this age had already had some prick-ish know it...
And this is exactly why I don't come on this message board any more. Just full of a bunch of jackasses that sit around waiting to talk shit.
No sir. It's just sitting in my garage. No money, no more information. It's for sale on Craigslist at the moment.
Haven't been able to work on the car in a couple weeks. My parents are moving to Florida so I've been hecticly helping them. I plan to be back...
No vacuum advance and the dizzy was specifically built to run on my flattie by GMCBubba from this forum. Supposedly it has 20 degrees full...
Actually I don't have a known good carb. I thought mine was a known good carb, because it came off of a perfectly fine running car before, but...
Power valves are correct for 94 style carb.
Update 7/10/2016 Sunday: Okay, this may be long winded. I know that this thread has had some personality clashed, but I am really stumped at...
Update: So I just finished installing the new intake gasket and condenser. It behaves exactly the same. I am going to swap dizzy's again...

All I can say is my fan works well. Anyone who needs a fan at high speeds, when a flex fan is "flat" is in serious trouble. They should see a...
I ground the rivets off, enlarged the holes a smidge, and installed a 6 bladed FAL flex fan with their 1" spacer and grade 5 hardware. I'll take...
I'd start with a condenser.
Water wetter is one of the only coolant additives that is tested to the same anti corrosion standards as coolant is. Therefore snake oil for...
Hey bud, to each their own. I don't judge anyone for doing whatever they have to in order to drive their flattie. I'm kind of a tuning nazi,...
I'm truly and honestly starting to think it's a condenser, which I will replace as soon as my intake gasket comes in so I can run the car to test....
Oh and yes. There's literally a 2 gauge wire straight from the battery to the drivers side head and then from the back of that head to the body...
Thanks for your replies guys. #1, I did check the surfaces with a straightedge and could fit more than a thousand or two anywhere. It wasn't...
Well then I guess I'll just order the parts to put the stock manifold back on. That's both the financially and diagnostically responsible decision.
Flatjack, the reason that hole cracked is because only half the bolt was in it. It was honestly my mistake, as I didn't account for the added...
Update 7/2/16: SO, I removed the manifold this morning and found a big uh-oh. The bolt that I thought was stripped had actually cracked the...
Things can't rust if they're covered in oil. I say let it leak!
Hi there, You didn't mention 6 or 12v. Make sure you're not running a 12v fan on 6 volts. That would draw significantly higher amperage than a...
So for those who are still following thread for info, I'm taking the night off and will be removing my intake to check the mounting surfaces for...
Ray, I meant nothing about the beard specifically, I'm sure your dad's beard doesn't say anything specific about him and I'll bet he had it before...
Ray, thanks for trying to justify their actions but honestly, I'm not new to this, although this is my first old car personally, I've experienced...
Pete, I don't want to eat anything from someone who's default is "be an ass first, ask questions later". If you feed me disrespect, I'm going to...
And beaner, forgive me for not wanting to earn the respect of an ass who treats everybody like crap until they feel like they deserve proper...
