[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Got my carb parts in last night and did a quick rebuild now the cars running better than before so I'm pretty stoked
I just unhooked everything from the voltage regulator and ran the power wire to the post that also has my ammeter wires connected to it. So if I'm...
And yeah I just gotta find the right kit, they're like 50 bucks
Like a dream man, I'm really pleased about that part
So took the car out and drove through town and on the freeway for an hour or so and came to a light and it just died in the intersection. So while...
Quick solution turned out to be flipping the bracket and adding a quarter inch spacer and running the bolt through the front
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] So I got my 6v alternator the other day and finally got around to putting it in and getting a bigger belt. I'm gonna have to...

I've heard of that too, giving em a little rev just to get em goin. Honestly as long as it charges I'll be stoked! And I'll unplug the radio since...
It should be here on Monday too
No not yet but I found a guy on the Hudson club who sells 6v alternators that are self activating and self regulating I can put the number on here...
I think it was from the 2.3 4 cylinder, not a hundred percent sure. And there's a 202 aluminum head on eBay right now I thought of getting but it...
[ATTACH] Ended up having to get a new pump as the previous one was shot but oddly enough a ford pinto pump fits just right

It's funny all the hudson guys want a twin h but it only adds 5 horses!

I really didn't want to for the sake of keeping it original but a 12v conversion may be in order of I can't figure it out
Yeah I think it would be pretty awesome! There's a couple of videos on YouTube where a guy did it, sounds really nice and like your saying a...
[ATTACH]
Well you do have a point there, that car is really badass. I pushed the firewall back in my datsun truck so I could get a 350 in it. Fair amount...
And I know I've mentioned charging issues before but it's still not working right. Last weekend drove it like 20 something miles turned it off and...
A 308 would be sweet but like d2 is saying it's pretty cramped in that engine compartment.
That's an awesome story, I was wondering what happened to the glass, that sucks! well at least you're looking after it so the earth doesn't...
This things sweet! Great paint
Yeah theyre super brittle! And then when I cut the plastic wrap around the looms the wires look like new.
