    Dwell readings changing?

    Replacing the bushing in the block requires 2 special tools - one for removal, the other for installation. The installer actually does 2 jobs - it installs and burnishes the bushing to the proper size and finish. I would strongly recommend renting/borrowing the proper tool if you are going to...

    the parting out of the cars we love?

    I am entirely with Ramenth on this. I have an '84 D150 (factory propane 318 ) that is tired and bashed, but to my girls she is "Rachel, the Rockin' Red Ram" and has memories of many holidays and fun adventures together. She was bought in '93 when I was on an acreage and needed a hauler. Now...

    The elusive early-A AM/FM & other stuff

    Beautiful! I am truly in awe - you have inspired me (and I am jealous as hell about your radio!). Those Doug's headers look awesome on the commando - are they equivalent to what was used for the D/Dart 275hp upgrade to the commando?

    Need Mopar Mechanic in Edmonton

    I might be able to lend a hand - depending on what you need. I live in Ft. Sask. but teach automotives at NAIT. Where in Edmonton are you and what sort of work are you looking for? I have 2 months off coming up....

    the parting out of the cars we love?

    Hmmmm... so where does everyone stand on the people that take nice solid old B and C bodies and smash them up in a demolition derby? I've even seen some A bodies (that I would have loved to buy) do well - the old stuff appeals to them 'cause they last... is it criminal? Just askin'...!!

    1965 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S

    This is the '65 formula S I found in Minnesota... I stumbled across her when I was considering a '66 Formula S project car, and realized that I was still in love with the lines of the '64 & '65 models. What really caught my attention was the fact that she is almost entirely original - only...

    64 New Yorker SW

    That could be such a SWEET ride if I only had the time and space... love that steering wheel. I hope you find a buyer that will restore it. If I am through there this summer, I may look you up, if it is still up for sale.

    Your cars want to be seen!

    This pic of my '65 is when I fell in love with her (so it is my avatar for now). I am too embarrassed to post a pic of my 64 vert... she is buried in the garage and in desperate need of a LOT of tlc. Soon though, I shall take some pics of where I am starting from and come clean!

    Hi Leanna, I have seen some of the work you have done as I surfed through some threads on here...

    Hi Leanna, I have seen some of the work you have done as I surfed through some threads on here and I am very impressed. Your work is amazing!! I have a couple of 273 commando valve covers that I would love to have you work on. They are in quite rough shape, as someone in the past has...

    Help setting valves on a 225

    No offence taken or or intended here - I respect that others "boogaloo" to their own tune!! As I said - just stating my preference based on my experience working in the trade. I have used both methods and made a choice. A quick poll of several of my colleagues (all with well over 25 years...

    Help setting valves on a 225

    Sorry to disagree Dan, but my in my experience, adjusting the valves with the engine off is far easier. An engine running adjustment is no more accurate than one done on a properly warmed up engine that is shut down. Working on a running engine also has the disadvantage of being potentially...
