    Voltage regulator/alternator help

    Thanks, I will run a ground directly to the battery to see if it makes a difference as well as the ignition run line. I understand that the regulator must be grounded... My wife was grounding the VR case by hand just so I could check voltage at the battery on that particular unit, as I had a few...

    Voltage regulator/alternator help

    I had a regulator at 17.5 and swapped it out for one that is around 14.5 but consequently noticed that the car runs better when the alternator/Voltage regulator aren't in the mix. Misfire at idle when voltage regulator is grounded to firewall. No misfire when voltage regulator is not grounded...

    Voltage regulator/alternator help

    I have a '71 roadrunner 383 auto, that just fried a battery after about 300 miles. The voltage at new battery at idle was 17.5 volts... ouch. I swapped in a voltage regulator from one of my other cars and it now reads 14.5-14.6 at idle. OK, I can live with that. I decided to try another VR that...

    Blank tie rod adjusting sleeves

    I bought a bunch of aluminum, hexagon tie rod blanks from Speedway Motors, on clearance on Ebay, a few years ago. I think they were made by AFCO. They were gold anodized. Ended up getting the taps on ebay and bought a handful of lock nuts from Speedway as well. EDIT In hind sight, they weren't...

    Emailed Edelbrock about their Victor340 issues

    I have a strip dominator as well that I was contemplating using. Wondering if they have as much potential as some of the other single planes?

    New PCV Valve whistles

    Had the same issue, pulled the threads out of a marette, drilled a hole through it slightly smaller than the hose ID and shoved it in just before the PVC valve. No more whistle... You may have to experiment with hole size.

    My lower back is junk

    I had L4,L5,S1 fused at the age of 35. Its been 13 years, I traded one pain for another by having the surgery... I pretty much didn't have a choice though as my legs would go numb with radiating pain down the *** and legs. I have never been given anything for pain since I had the surgery. Makes...
