Yeah I did but AFAICT those showed how mine was out of whack and I haven't taken any photos of it since fixing that. I'll see what I can find though. Basically the Z-bar has to be level and parallel to the frame rail. The two pivots should be directly across from each other. I bought a TTI...

well i know it works fine after at least 7... I had places i could buy from legally but things changed.. you canadian guys can still buy legally and it pisses me off

If you look at the other offrigs for 1949, the ford is WAY more advanced. Kind of like the 57 Mopars vs the others.

Me too!

If you are looking at the blp chart( I just did on their site) it says 86 blp jets are the same as This is the conversion chart I am looking at( unless it’s wrong) Says a blp 85 is a holley79, a blp 87 is a Holley 81, so a blp 86 would be a Holley 80. Those are WAY smaller jets than any 850 or...

I was planning on doing a drive by and it would be good to know if anyone will have Mopar stuff there.

ah, chicken soup! good for what ails ya.

Looks like Chrysler is no longer making the rocker shaft end freeze plugs. Mancini is out Year One out the dealerships are out. Nobody has them…..

Great looking carb! I hope it performs for you as well as it looks..................... :thumbsup:

I run all my cars on 87 octane gas with upto 10% ethanol. It never hurt anything, but my cars don't have high compression ratios. Also, years ago I did an experiment with E85 and ran a 50/50 mix in my obd1 92 Ferd bronco. Ran it like that for a good time, it ran great and the computer was able...

I've got some 40 yr old, I'm afraid to try, lol

This helped me when I rebuilt my distributor http://www.dave78chieftain.com/Dodge_Electron03.html

To do that, you'd probably need to hog out the mount hole on the passenger side a bit to sldie it over and up and then use some shims under the driver side mount.

They canceled test and tune tonight due to moisture.

Any members here going to the Monroe swap meet this weekend or will have vender spots? A buddy and I plan to be there unless something happens. Be nice to have some idea who is there so we can keep an eye out. Vender booth numbers would be great, too.

I still do... 350 trips and counting :) Starting to get low on supply though :(

I think a lot of us gave Thanx to Timothy Leary, I did .

In all honesty, I'd go straight for the M1. Especially with the plans for steeper gears in the future. When you swap in the GV overdrive, go straight for the 4.56 gears.

It has to be this........................:thumbsup:

Learn something new every day. Called ATM about how this thing was jetted. Turns out there are THREE different jets. BLP, Holley, and ATM The guy when I told him this thing had 101 jets per the sheet, said that would translate to what an 86 Holley is. He sent me a conversion sheet for the jets...

Love Jack Elam.. watched a movie recently on youtube called "Kansas city confidential" he was about 18 in it and was great.. also has a 18 year old Lee vanclef..

Back in the early 80's I had a bone stock 1971 340 Demon with 100k miles on it. it's run 8.95 in the 1/8th mile with h-78-14 tires. Around here I could beat any stock muscle car except for this one guy that had a 1970 Torino Gt with a 429 SCJ . He'd pass me at about 1200 feet every time we...

Finally someone caught that! lol

Nope. 100% certain I am running BLP’s. I have the conversion chart from thumper as well.

Thanks for the replies, you guys pretty much confirmed my suspicions...Now to find the right dang bushings!

Remembering that I've got eyes like Jack Elam so I have trouble with depth perception, it looks to me like the height is right, and the engine needs to move 1/8 to the passenger side. Now to figure out how to do that. I've got a stack of 1/8" shims but am not sure that's going to move it the...

:rofl: $111.99 spectrum?

Any history on the Daytona? There is a guy local to me that used to campaign a Daytona with Direction Connection colors.

Dark ones60.plus ride

I think there are two scenarios for this topic. One is this is a swap with what can be found as an ok motor that should run and the other is a full build before the swap. In the case of dragging home whatever can be found, I think the stock comparisons from years ago are somewhat helpful...
