I am doing a front disc conversion on my 65 Wagon. I already have all the SBP KH parts from Hemi71, but as I understand it still need a proportioning valve and dual chamber master cylinder. I'm not always the best at grasping what I've read. Would this be a good fit or am I looking for a...

Higgs, Right now everything is stock spec for a Carter BBD. I don't know what those specs are. If anyone knows that would probably help! ;) Edelbrock actually gave me some recommendations for if I move to a performer 500. They told me to go 8% lean using a main of .098, rods .073 x .052, and...

Anybody have a some friendly recommendations? I've read on a few Jeep forums that Edelbrock jets will fit into the BBD just fine. I'm currently running stock 2BBL intake manifold and Carter BBD on my 65 Dart 273. I've done the best I can to tune this thing and I just can't get it right. My next...

Hopefully nobody minds me hijacking this thread a little bit, but I figured this is the best place to post since it is a current thread on the filter adapter. How do you get the thing off? Mine is leaking oil. Does it just twist off like a standard filter? I didn't want to just start tugging on...

No worries. At least I made the connection at the hardware store. I went ahead and bought both just in case, but I was pretty sure it was 1/2" when the 7/16" didn't fit the 3/4" socket I grabbed off the rack for checking. And of course, wouldn't you know it that the damn washer went missing...

So it was 1/2"-13 threaded. ;)

Probably my fault for poor explanation. I'm not up on all the jargon. ;) If the internet didn't exist I would be lost on this project.

Yeah, that's the guy! Thanks everyone for the help in tracking this down. Saves me from having to go home and wrench before heading to the hardware store.

I just finished putting in my new FirmFeel stage 3 power steering box. Part of that process included disconnecting the driver side motor mount. I have the washer, but the nut has magically disappeared. Can anyone tell me the interior/exterior dimensions and the threading so the I can stop at...

That new upholstery is great!

That is pretty close. My mounting holes are at 3.25". Thanks for checking.

Any chance you were able to come up with something?

Well, I didn't get it done this weekend because UPS delayed my steering box delivery. Hopefully it arrives today. Well that sounds like it'll be fun! Any tips on getting those bolts out without breaking the hidden nuts? I'll definitely spray them down with some penetrating blaster. If they end...

Definitely not a bad idea. I was considering getting a 12v heater from harbor freight if I couldn't get this one sorted out soon. 12V Auto Heater / Defroster with Light My recommendation to improve your idea is make sure the heater has analog controls and get a Belkin Wemo switch on your...

I was going to go with JB-Qwik as suggested by trailbeast, but then I realized it meant another trip to the store and I just didn't have it in me. LoL I went with what I've got on hand, QwikSteel. I used some painters tape from the outside to trace the openings and give myself a guide. Then I...

I'm new to this whole restoration thing so forgive my ignorance. Do people not just take there car down to the local shop and have tint film added?

I've got the same air cleaner as pictured above on my '65 273 Carter BBD as well.

Hey guys. I've got a '65 Dart Wagon. My new power steering box from FirmFeel got here today. Does anyone have a critical tips or specific tool recommendations to make this go smoothly? It's not going to be especially warm and I need to get my car back on the road for Monday. I've also got my new...

That's gotta be the most beautiful heater box I've ever seen! Looks like you cut your own foam for the restoration. I took the easy way out and bought the kit from Detroit Muscle. Great service from the gal I spoke to on the phone. One of the pieces that came with it was a strip of white poly...

Gotcha. I've only recently started using JB weld SteelStik and the similar QuikSteel product. They are both 2-part epoxy putty. I used some to even a defect in the top edge of my carburetor's float bowl and also used it to fix some of the other issues on this box (holes from fresh air door being...

I had considered that, but I haven't done any fiberglass before and I'd rather keep this repair simple and get it back in the car. It's freaking cold outside! I was definitely planning to fill and re-drill the hole. I've heard of that UV activated resin, but never used it. Do you have any...

Hopefully the title makes sense, but here's a description and picture. The area of my heater box where the pipes for the heater core pass through is broken. I was able to push the piece back into place, but I am trying to decide whether I should reinforce the cracks with JB-Weld Putty or cut...

Missed delivery on my exhaust today. It's a bummer, but I won't have time to get to it until Saturday anyway. Here's a few pics of the heater box. I cleaned and painted all the metal parts that seemed reasonable to attempt. I had a few different paint products laying around so it got a mix so I...

I know it would probably be absurdly restrictive, but any idea what it might cost to get it freighted to 80923? The front bench in my wagon is a mismatched year. If only I could go back in time and drop by to pick this up when I was driving from Connecticut to Colorado!

And now I have a slightly modified HiPo exhaust system ordered from Accurate Exhaust. I couldn't say no to 20% off. :D

Fair enough!

I saw a few threads where people seemed to like them alright. Are the brackets really so bad that it's worth spending an extra $50-$150 per bar? I looked at the FirmFeel bars first since I'm getting my steering box from them, but ~$350/bar is pretty steep. Sounds like a decent plan. The Hellwig...

This weekend I received my Tech Service Manual (yeah I know I can use a digital one for free, but I wanted a hard copy). I also received a set of random rubber bump stops I ordered. Now my hood release has enough resistance to pop even in the cold! I just need to figure out where all of the...

Are you in my head? I've almost pulled the trigger on some sway bars about 5 times this week, but I'm not sure which to go with. I'm leaning towards the addco bars from summit since they are a bit cheaper and I keep buying expensive things. :D

I'm getting so confused by the shifting thread. moparraceman I''ll take it if it's not already going somewhere else. Just let me know where to paypal and don't tell my wife.
