Here are two new US-built Raybestos wheel cylinders for 9-inch drum brakes. One WC34876 (left + right rear, all years) and one WC37102 (right front, pre-1973). Current price for current (Chinese) ones is $7 to $14 apiece. The two of mine together are $23 shipped from Northern Michigan to...

Here's a pair of the metal trims that go round the inside of the rear quarter glass on the '61-'62 Lancer-Valiant 2-door hardtop cars. In nice condition; paint them to suit and pop 'em on. Mine are the blue ones; the red-car pic is to show where these go. $44 shipped from Northern Michigan to...

One set of new (in sealed bags, in boxes) US-made McQuay-Norris tie rod ends. All four, that's two inner and two outer; two ES401L and two ES401R. These fit all '70 and later rear-drive Mopar cars, except C-bodies. Current price for current (Chinese) parts is around $15 apiece; my American...

Got one new pair of American-made 7-inch round LED headlamps, Truck-Lite 37270C. Not my favourite 7" headlamp in the whole wide world, but completely credible, much better than sealed beams, DOT-certified, and very well built. They draw very little current (no relay harness needed; drop in, plug...

Evans Wiring builds great and affordable engine wiring harnesses. If what you want (particular kind of engine, ignition, etc) isn't listed, ping him and he'll build it.

Weird. I see manifold + gaskets in the photos, and the description at the top of the page is "Volvo Penta Exhaust Intake Manifold with Gaskets and Bolts".

Here y'go, brandy-new.

Back when these brands we're tossing around (Accel, MSD, Holley…) were actual companies engineering and making their own stuff, with the makers speaking the same language as the engineers, feedback was relevant; it was "actionable", as the saying goes. Now they're just zombie brands slapped on...

Yes, Aviation Permatex can handle exposure to gasoline vapour and the occasional splash of liquid. Constant submersion in liquid gasoline is a totally different matter. Keep in mind we are talking about a pot of highly flammable liquid, perched right near a part of the engine (exhaust manifold)...

No. There is no gasket sealer you can use that is adequately gasoline-proof. All of it will dissolve, and that portion of it on the inside will go on to clog up stuff in and downstream of the carburetor that shouldn't ought to be clogged up. No, sir. There are other Holley carburetors that...

Most likely, the carburetor body and/or bowl is warped, and/or there is a burr or foreign material on the sealing flange area(s). Doubling or tripling up on gaskets might stop the bleeding. More detail might wring out a more helpful answer to this one. Exactly where is the fuel leaking? Bottom...
