    PCV and Breather question

    I recently did a carb swap on my '65 170 auto to a Carter BBD (made for slant 6 application - curved PCV fitting, thick choke airhorn, and no bowl vent fitting). The car runs beautiful. However, I am now seeing small amounts of smoke (no oil) coming from my oil fill cap (front black cap in...

    After adding a stereo to my car (1965 Valiant 170 slant 6 with power steering/no AC), the power to said stereo cuts off when the brake lights come on, and the RPM's fall under 1100.

    Remanufactured Carbs

    Hi all. I am looking for a 2bbl slant 6 carb, and while researching and shopping, I keep reading that reman carbs are no good, but there is never an explanation as to why. What makes them bad?

    Timing question

    I have attempted to time my '65 slant 170, all stock except for Pertronics EI. I have rotated the distributor counterclockwise as far as it will turn in an effort to retard the timing.
