Hi jbc426 , take a look at post number 20, I still need to test drive to see that helped, also want to have my exhaust system pipes welded, have many pipes on with pipe clamps, want to clean up the underside anyway.

I took a look at the trunk seal, found in the left and right lower corner area the weather seal gasket was not sealing tight, I could see light coming thought that area. I have reset the gasket [ do not see any light ] and need to road test to see if that helps/takes care of the fumes getting...

For some reason can not up load photos, the tailpipes with ext. are just past the rear bumper. I will check my trunk seal, it is new , but before I bought the car I can see it was hit and repaired to left rear area at tail light . As far as tune , it does have a new Holley 650 on it, there is a...

After spending most of last year trying to get my 69 Cuda notch with a 318 , 904 trans running, this year was finally able to get to some car shows. Just yesterday drove about 40 miles and back from a very large show [ Gasket Goons near Hellertown Pa.] driving both ways with windows down keep...

just checked on line found the kit from Toyota Parts Express out of Florida for 16.49 , 10.86 for shipping my total was 27.35.

I just used an right angle grinder with a grinding pad to remove the chrome. I then used a good high build primer to smooth before paint with bumper black paint on my Cuda.

wanted to add NGK GR4GP plugs.

Just up sized the main jets in the Holley carb. from 66 to 68, took for a short ride about 6 miles pulled a plug ,seemed to run, pull better. Here is a photo of one of them. Have on order an Air/ Fuel Ratio gauge , will need to weld in/clamp to the exhaust system for the sensor to fit. Want to...

Did my Cuda.

Base is at 10 degrees, all in at 34 deg. at 3000 rpm. Just for the heck of it, I tried out this new Ai Chat on the internet, gave it all of my engine specs, cam, carb., pistons, intake, it noted that the Holley carb.is jetted on the lean side from the factory at a jet size of 66, it stated the...

Hi KitCarlson, thank you , so do you think I should advance the timing a little more? Then if still not correct try riching up the carb? As stated above , this engine has a none factory camshaft.

Have been driving car to shows, did a show this weekend, drove about 80 miles. Was a very hot day [ mid 90's, ] car ran fine in the cool morning air. while driving with the windows open I have a smell like exhaust fumes, I have a number of times check the exhaust system which is all new...
