    Of All Things Chrome

    Huh there's even the adapter plate to put a SB trans sandwiched in there..... That by itself has gotta be worth something There was no chrome on the one I had, I bought a whole 64, /6 and 727 that had been sitting on a dirt, garage floor just to get those parts. I've since sold off the engine...

    Show your slant 6 a body!

    Selling that one looks like a mistake.... You don't see them like that anymore without needing ALOT of work to get them there

    "The best in brakes"? Really?

    I tend to agree with the op, I don't like chinamade parts either and I try to find parts that aren't whenever I can. Yes raybestos used to be the best but no more. Back in the day you had them, you had Bendix and you had Wagner... All had different grades for each brand of car they offered parts...

    "The best in brakes"? Really?

    That's why if I am not in a bind where I gotta have it "right now" I buy old stock off of eBay. Better quality and usually cheaper too.

    Harmonic balancer questions

    Yup the rebulders have the capability to realign the outer ring. Unless you can find NOS you're better to have yours rebuilt vs buying a new/chinamade unit. Damper doctor or damper dudes, I've used them both. 2 different/separate companies.

    What is the Official Name for this Panel Crimping tool?

    Eastwood has them. We have an Eastwood store about an hour away, been finding myself there more and more lately, I saw one while I was there looking for something else. They are mostly a mail order type place, but so now have 4-5 stores, I think mine is the farthest west in the US, near Chicago...

    What Is This Lift Called?

    Cold? I didn't think Texas got cold. Try Chicago.

    What Is This Lift Called?

    Alignment rack. I wish I had the room for one. I was an alignment guy for many years. And now I can't find anybody that can do an alignment who's worth a damn

    Whether internal or external balance the damper is part of the balance system. Show a pic as what you described and what the machine shop says doesn't seem right at all
