Looks tremendous! Chris
I'd be thinking with a sbc in a 32 the distributor will be coming out one way or another, either to gain clearance or to replace it after it gets...
I think it's worthwhile to have the pin element in the door jamb and not in the door. Imagine the door is open, the pin extended and then the door...
If I was in your position I'd be purchasing matched components to suit the application from a vendor that can be spoken to for assistance /...
I'm pretty certain it's just an aluminium washer. Aluminium or copper should be fine. Or, as already suggested, a bonded washer / Dowty seal would...
I think you've got a grip on it! I imagine the 'adjustable' bits are merely a simple way of making the bars. The clevises are a neat way of...
I built mine based on the Red Wing plans, available free to download. Beefy enough for a full size car. Working on the underside at a comfortable...
Another pioneer lost. RIP
Funky, I presume neon, tube at the front too! Car looks well! Great that the color works, and the interior can wait. Chris
You are not alone! Chris
You're making it look easy! Chris
If there's any misalignment I'd suggest the urethene bushes might not last too long, mine certainly didn't! Chris
This just confirms to me that I have a wholly inadequate collection / selection of vice grips / welding clamps! I must try harder. Story of my...
Have I got this right? The crossmember has been widened by 3" but the steering rack remains as previously, with lengthened arms making up the...
They don't have provision for adjustment without an amount of laborious and time consuming disassembly. Not racetrack friendly at all! Chris
The journal travels in a circle around the crank. Moving the center of the journal away from the centerline of the crank is what ultimately...
Easier to explain with a mental visualisation, picture even better. Imagine a circle. Put a slightly smaller circle inside it, not concentric but...
The bottom arms will have to be able to articulate at the axle with some kind of joint, and not solid with a yoke or similar. The tie rod ends...
I might be missing the point but don't the top and bottom flanged, wheelbarrow style, bearings keep the shaft in the correct position inside the...
Sounds good to me! Chris
Daryl was brilliant! BC acted like he'd won the lottery to learn that Daryl doesn't use epoxy. Chris
You don't need a channel as such, just an account. They may well be one and the same for all I know but opening an account is straightforward, as...
Im confused! This switch to earth: doesn't this create a dead short with all the problems this entails? I can see it preventing starting by...
A reasonable blow with a soft faced hammer is what you need. Talking about into the yoke in the rear end where the u bolt / saddle retains the...
https://view.publitas.com/ims-catalogs/products/page/1 You could do worse than to look into Industrial Metal Supply descaler and degreaser. It...
I was aware of that, which is why I asked! If its not broke yet it'll probably last a while longer. Chris
Why wouldn't you fit it exactly as the one its replacing? Chris
I had the same thoughts on my 32 3w but took the lazy route and stayed manual as that's what I had, so less work! I'm happy I did! The window does...
A buddy of mine had an electrostatic painting system for his contract painting business. The equipment was purchased as a time / cost saving...
I appear to have strayed onto a porn site. Nice to see your stuff again. Chris
