    Is 20W-50 too heavy for my 340?

    Fresh from polish!

    Aluminum slots, My favorite ! American Racing makes nice aluminum center caps with or without logo. I have used them on several different brand wheels and they fit the same. About $20 each at Jegs or Summit. You may be able to contact them for screw hole to screw hole size.

    Small Upper ball joint adaptors

    I was in the same boat awhile back and used them on a 68 Valiant. Got them from Dr Diff. The car was basic street car, small engine driver. No autocross or stuff like that. Worked for me !

    I know I know it’s not an A body

    I remember him well. But I don't remember of the 2 brothers who started racing with a 70 Coronet 318 that was green. I believe I'm thinking of the same guys. 50 years is a long time.

    I have a 1965 barracuda it had a transmission with 2 cables and a floor shifter . I changed the transmission to a newer one , what can i do ?

    I never know what someones budget is so you have many choose from as far as aftermarket shifters. Most range in the $200 to $400 . Last one I did was a TCI in my 63 with a 70 transmission.Cost was around $180 and works well.They as in most all aftermarket shifters are 1 cable operation.

    Can you identify this motor?

    More like a 5.2 318 or a 5.9 360 Magnum with a barrel intake . The block should have numbers cast on the side.

    Has anyone had experience with Kumho tires

    My only complaint of Kumho's is they only lasted 7,000 miles on our PT Cruiser. They were 205/60/17's. Must have been a soft compound.

    This weekends big race at keystone canceled. Still to wet more rain coming

    No disrespect. That's what I did like that everything was a days drive or less. I mainly was talking about the weather. My joke I tell people in the dry desert is that it rains at least 4 days a week in the Pittsburgh area. If it doesn't rain in 10 days it's considered a drought.

    This weekends big race at keystone canceled. Still to wet more rain coming

    It is hearing this that I don't miss living in south west pa anymore. Keystone was my home track for years. I do miss the people/friends and the good times I had at Keystone. Weather forecast for 2024 across the US has been said that it is going to be a colder and wet year.
