    Got to love those new tool boxes

    I definitely think those are all pretty nice, and if I had the kind of job where my tools made me money I'd probably be somewhere in that world. My 6 drawer Husky I found on the curb (with keys!) is doing just fine at work. A good portion of my tools are too big to fit in any kind of box I'd...

    Balancer hitting timing tab

    So if I remember correctly, it was nearpar who had this issue with a 70's cover and the pro products 80012 balancer, but that thread went off the rails quickly

    Balancer hitting timing tab

    Ah ok, there's something. My timing tab is on the driver's side! I thought it was earlier that they changed sides.

    Balancer hitting timing tab

    I saw a few threads on this from awhile ago, but it didn't seem that a solution ever got posted. I have a 96 5.9 that I am using the timing cover off of a 68 318. ( Going into a 71 dart) As far as I know both cranks and everything else on both motors was standard, nothing special on either. I...

    Jeg's cool gap manifold

    Best case would be to drill the heads for my 2176, but still considering options. I don't even have the motor yet.

    Jeg's cool gap manifold

    Anyone have any experience with it? Looks pretty much like a crosswind. I have a 5.9 with LA timing cover in the works, so this looks like another option, unless someone says it's total junk.

    904 service

    The fluid looked perfectly red and smelled fresh. The rear band was a little bit loose but adjusted easily. There wasn't a magnet in there, maybe one of those little rare earth magnets would be good to stick on the outside? I got a lubelocker gasket so I could drop the pan if I need. It was just...

    904 service

    Just did a filter and gasket change, there was a coating of material in the pan and a little clump right under the filter, is this acceptable? 1971, swinger 318. Unknown service history, shows ~60k miles.

    Tail Light Socket question

    For LEDs the Sylvania Zevo is pretty good and lights the whole lens, even with a really dull reflector. Made a huge difference in the daylight.

    Tubular control arms vs rebushing

    Went out apple picking (was a bust) out east took a few 'country' roads at a good clip and definitely got that old car feel, this was with my girl and two kids. Hit a few winds and definitely felt a bit less effortless. At highway speeds if I hit a bump, it just feels like a bump. It's the low...

    Tubular control arms vs rebushing

    72blunblu, the solid tie rods were already on the list before I considered anything else...I hate the sleeves. IveI pretty much decided against the tube lowers, might still go for the uppers for the caster correction and ease of install. Then I can spend all my effort and patience for the...
