The sub has nice bass, but it's not that powerful. LOL

The head unit has 2 RCA outputs as does the sub and the small Kicker amp. I'll have to add a low level adapter to the front side of the head unit to add that amp. If you think the amp will power the front speakers better than the head unit, then it might be worth doing. Thanks for all the advice.

Do I need to call your wife and get her to bop you upside the head? I asked a question, dork. lol

Alimony.

I knew an old guy when I was a kid who owned a local carburetor and distributor shop. He had ALL kinds of now defunct and impossible to find tools. He had a tool for those clips. It looked similar to a pair of needle nose pliers, but had very small, blunt ends with a hole drilled in each end. It...

Yes sir. A lot of solid lifters have the wire retainer or snap ring. Those are higher end oil metering solid lifters. So be careful when you're verifying.

When I had my 65 Valiant 2 door hardtop years ago, it got called a Nova on a regular basis.

I think it's fine. Some of these guys don't understand that there are many, MANY types of pistons. Most all modern pistons are what's called "cam ground" pistons. They are not round at room temperature. They are oval. Once up to operating temperature, they expand and "get round" and all the...

The more I drive the truck and listen to it....although it sounds a LOT better than those two 6 x 9s in the those tiny boxes, I'm thinking the front speakers are over powered by the subwoofer.

Thanks for all the help, yall. It's much appreciated, even though I don't understand 90% or more of it. Just to make it clear what I have, here are the door speakers: https://www.crutchfield.com/p_1131666S/Kenwood-KFC-1666S.html Here is the head unit...

Ridiculous. Everybody knows the 68-72 Nova is a much better lookin car than the Duster.

It sure does molest the heck out of that inner fender though, doesn't it?

That's very true.

I consider myself in good company then!

ewwwww

Right!

I knew all this stuff when I was a mechanic and machinist and stayed with it, but I've been out of touch professionally for a long time now. We all know how out of touch mentally I am.

I wasn't talkin about everybody else.

I know, right? LOL

You're dang sure right. I guess I had Cleveland on the brain. Thanks.

@Dicer nailed it about the oil flow out of the top holes on the rockers. You will get very little. Just enough to drool down the rocker and lube the valve stems and rocker pads. On the rocker shaft installation. Here's how they install. Passenger's side, the notch in the end goes to the REAR...

As long as it goes away or gets quieter when it warms up, I wouldn't worry about it.

Never seen an "end seal". All I've ever seen were pressed in plugs. Just get the appropriate size freeze plug, put the sealant of your choice on it and hammer it home.

Glad you got it off without damage.

Just because "you've seen this" or "you've heard that" doesn't make it right. I'm not being a nitpicker. It's important to get terminology correct, especially when you're asking for help. The piece is called the distributor points cam. The entire piece with the slots in it is the distributor...

Since nothing clashes, why worry about it? I think it's beautiful.

I know it does. I'm just messin with you. As long as there are still good parts for the Mopar ignition, that's how I'm goin.

Like I know what that is. LMAO

And also don't forget that you might not line up at those places, proof in the post earlier where the camshafts have different oil hole locations.

Bah humbug. lol
