    Paint and bodywork

    After 31 years in the PDR industry, I've decided to try my hand at conventional body work. This is a deck lid that I purchased a while back. I had it stripped it down to bare metal and am filling in the low spots. The shop guys are mentoring me, but they are also getting a kick out of watching...

    Kanter Rant

    The same thing happened to me. I got the flier out of the mail on Wednesday. In addition to the 20% off, it had a coupon for $10 off of your purchase.

    I made a small block low mount alternator bracket

    I think he was trying to get the wires on the back of the Denso away from the header. I think it's a cleaner look also, not that it matters much on a race car though.

    PATINA

    Shifter Install

    I haven't done a Cheetah but have installed several other cable operated shifters. The cable is easily looped up and around the back of the transmission bell, but care must be taken to route the cable around any heat source on the left side (header or manifold). I would also recommend getting...

    EFI to replace Edelbrock carb

    I addition to sticking with the Edlebrock carb I would recommend upgrading to the stock Mopar electronic ignition. MSD boxes and distributors are great but try finding one in Small Town, USA on a Tuesday night after hours. I would get what you have running right and then start making upgrades...

    Champion radiator for ~500hp small block??

    I experienced the same thing when I picked up a 3 core Champion radiator for my Dart. Very little room between the water pump pulley and the electric fans. I'd like to run a mechanical fan/clutch if possible.
