hey newmexguy thanks for the reply. could be I have the year wrong, or yours is a 65? this car has round tail lights...doesn't look like a match. oh well was worth a try thanks again!

Looking for left rear quarter for a 64 Signet 2 door hardtop. Would consider the rear half of it car has collision damage in front of the taillight.:prayer:

I've seen a number of cars use the circuit breaker for protection, I used a short length of fusible link to protect my cable. You should also use the correct double pole battery cut off switch to truly isolate the battery when the shut off is activated. If not you still have battery voltage at...

Finally broke into the tens May 12th, following much work and $$. Best 10.96 at 122.14 MPH with 1.56 short. Backed that up with a 10.97 same MPH next pass. 419 stroker, W2 iron heads, AED 950 Super Mod, Cam motion solid roller .680 lift, 727 rollerized, low gear set, Dynamic vert. 4.30 spool...

Glad to hear I'm not the only one having damper issues; I had my builder install an SFI inertia ring damper by Professional Products. damn thing slipped the ring after 5 pulls on the dyno and 50 passes, stroker started vibrating, replaced it with a ATI super damper....Although the PP damper was...

Hey Scott, any updates on the stroker build? Can't wait to see you rippin 10's again!

FTS73 looks like you on same diet. Any other suggestions?

I must give credit where credit is due, I saw the fibreglass idea on FABO, but wanted the aluminum brackets. I felt the aluminum would be sweet looking but then realized I didn't want to wait or spend the $$. Thanks for the idea Purple Haze:cheers: yours I think turned out better/stronger than...

Sweet Ride! Good Luck:cheers:

I know there is another thread running on aluminum brackets, but I didn't want to highjack it and from what I hear I can't afford them on my budget. After paying for the bodywork and stroker motor, my line of credit is hurtin bad:cry:. My car weighs 3335# with me and this is just one chapter in...

Hey Badart, awsome, :cheers:Thanks for the info, I assume I can buy one of these from a machinery/tool supply outlet... will check this out, on my budget it's all about savin some coin.

Hey 70AAR, is there any way to do this ream out with the spindles on the car? Surely someone has done this before....anyone have any suggestions or first hand knowledge on the size reamer to use?,......then theres the nagging voice saying should I, after all I guess one should check the amount...

Wow, Purple Haze you ain't kidding....:prayer:way to rich for my budget right now, too bad as they are sweet looking arms. Looks like it wil be th elarge ball joint arms from RMS, QA1 or Magnum force that way when I upgrade to 73 up knuckles I won't have to re-visit this issue.Thanks everyone...

Interesting. I want to stay with my small BJ knuckles so I can keep my KH four psiton dics, don't have the $$ for wilwood stuff yet!

WIth Heim ends? Heard Hotchkiss is good quality

Yep, got the struts on my list, it will be the Cal trac 90/10's up front, the 90/10's on the car are over 25 years old! Looks like the RMS UCA are the best bet just didnt want the hassle of reaming the knuckles to fit the large ball joint and I don't want to do the 73 up knuckle uprgade right...

Anyone tried out the QA1 #52301 tubular UCA kit listed for 67-72 A-bodies with Heim ends? I 'm wondering whether they come with small ball joint or the larger 73'up BJ, also can't seem to find the part number to order for rod ends on the site.....RMS has tubular UCA's bu twith the large BJ...

Attaboy Scott, great times...wish I could have been there to vid for you. Got my damper, not on the 419 yet though...talk to you soon

Got those Cal tracs finally dialed in did ya

Looking for a rust free driver side quarter for a 2 door 64 Valiant Signet 200, or need section from the pillar back, car has round taillights....its not a rust problem, car took a hit...

Hey Scott, I'll be there, rain or shine. Car had a bad vibration after grand bend, turns out after replacing my pinion spacer and transmission mount it was my harmonic balancer gone bad...proffessional products SFI.18 POS, the inertia ring spins by hand on the hub, now its a boat anchor!! Oh...

Thanks for the tip JoeDust. MT tech dept got back to me they said " no screws, bead locks only" and are going to remove the page on their site where it states to use screws if the radials slip:angry2:. I guess I'll try it w/o screws, but I will have to run tubes as my rims have two different...

Hey is anyone running MT ET Street radials with bead screws? My rims were previously drilled for screws when I was running slicks, but after looking at the tech bullitens on MT site I 'm confused as one page states not to use bead screws with the ET drag radials, and another says to use em if...
