Either that or pull the trans back. He says it's just yearly inspection. I've never been there when he does it and i dont know what bell he runs....
A friend of mine used to run a Ramp power grip HD with a billet steel flywheel, then switched to the Defiant model which has smoother engagement...
Damned good work so far! -rick
Well there you have it, lol. I'll delete my ramblings, thanks. (we shant speak of this again, lol) -rick
this is outstanding. I'm a bit inspired by your tackling of the sheet metal repair. I need to come across a deal like that for the bead roller,...
Dont know if it's already been posted, but came across this pic the other day. I have no info on it. Maybe someone can make out the track or name...
346 caddy had that firing order, but was a flatty. 324 Olds i'm betting -rick
When I hear that, I excitedly ask him how much he's taught the boy about cars. Has he gotten him past auto theory and mechanics and moved into...
Pretty sure it's not just a simple percentage of loss, either. A TH400 behind a 1,000HP engine isn't eating several hundreds of HP in loss. Side...
I think there's over thinking here. He's got the room. if, If, IF the motor needs to come out, then: 1. Move the other car to where the wife's...
more hp will run through the rpm range faster and get up to the higher end quicker in the run. so if it was redlined before, then it will redline...
Outstanding! -rick
McMasterCar is already on speed dial for this project, haha! Thanks! -rick
Yeah, I feel a bit better about popping out the factory plug after ruminating a bit and talking about it here. Thanks! -rick
Ive freshened one up before and know about flipping the nut. The box is pretty basic. It's got the same bearing top and bottom for the worm to...
I know it's short term economics, but my budget is more geared towards paying the local machinist to bore the hole, instead of purchasing a lathe,...
Yup thats the short version. The long one is what I have and I've already chopped it to about 11 inches to let me finagle it around the frame and...
Hello, I've looked into corvair and vega box reversal. I have a falcon, 2 falcon boxes (so i can make a mistake if needed), and too big of a...
You kind of answered your own question. How does it work if it's not acidic? It works on a different principal. The citric acid and other...
True! I have no intention of putting in all those gauges. I do have a vintage temp trans gauge that was a gift, but now i'm switching to a 4...
Oh wow, you're right. I couldn't zoom in on it enough from my phone where I snagged the pic, but I can now that it's posted here. I thought of...
That's a pretty sharp idea
*Competition Dashboards* *Edit* The ABS dash pictured below has been identified as Crackle painted Aluminum I know ABS plastic was invented in...
Gray Baskerville explained it as rhyming with "cow". I've never seen his name come up on the HAMB (that may be just me), so I don't know what...
I dont know the weight of your car, but I'm willing to bet it's over the 2800# suggested max for a vega box. I just ordered one for my Falcon...
They have good sense of humor. The catalog has the part# 121g Flux capacitor and then there is the 121GMF Mr Fusion upgrade, as well. orielly auto...
So did your friend that worked on the carbs fix it for good, or it's still happening? You mentioned he couldn't reproduce the symptoms. First...
If it just had the front end worked on, I'd say it was tightened up before being set on the ground and the rubber is all bound up. -rick
I'm wondering what the equipment rules are to be eligible. I wasn't able to locate them on the Facebook page. I think I've seen pics of 4 links in...
I'm sorry if I missed it-I didn't realize you were attempting a return line without using a return style regulator. My bad. -rick
