The problem is so pervasive that a bunch of tool companies make half sized (ex. 21.5mm) sockets.

Thanks guys. I’ve been collecting parts for a Super 6 BBD swap on my ‘65 Dart. I have the firewall bracket but not the pedal.

Is the early A pedal also different between the slant and the V8? Or is it just the linkage/plate that bolts to the firewall. The v8 pedal looks like it has a wear pad that I don't remember seeing on the slant pedal.

Thanks for the offer but I was hoping someone made reproduction versions of the consumable parts for the early pedals. I found a source from an old /6.net post but the owner/company passed away years ago.

Does anyone know where to buy replacement bushings and spring clips for an early A body gas pedal used with a slant 6 with BBS? From the image below, I’m looking for part # 14.01.30, 14.01.31 and 14.07.15? Thanks!

AFR is using 8mm valve stems. Nice, everyone else seems to be using 11/32 valves. The 60hp number doesn’t seem to be that impressive until you see the full graph: Also Dulcich’s dyno is running Windows 95!!!!

$2k is on par with Edelbrock and Trick Flow. Seems like a decent price for Aluminum heads.

I hope things get better for you soon. I'm sooo sorry for all you have lost lately.

Impressive. Go little 318!

That sounds like a nightmare. Glad you got it squared away.

I have a A518 in my D150. I used a Chevy polyurethane mount and the pressure switch kit for OD. I had a new drive shaft made up which was the most expensive part of the install. Pretty simple swap.

Thanks for the tip on the IH paint. I’m in the final stages of rebuilding the 225 for my ‘65 Dart. I had a case of VHT Chrysler Red engine paint and didn’t realize I’d used it all up until it was too late. I went to order some more and found it was discontinued.

I ran out of VHT Chrysler Red (SP155) while painting my slant. Looks like the VHT SP155 has been discontinued. Does anyone know how close of a match Duplicolor Chrysler Industrial Red (DE1632) is to the VHT color?

I’ll take it. Please send me a message with how you’d like to be paid.

I'll take the '65. Shoot me a message with how you'd like to be paid.
